From bestselling author Melissa Ferguson comes a You've Got Mail meets Confessions of a Shopaholic meets Parks and Rec rom-com where the worlds of a chronically online, out-of-touch influencer and an off-the-grid, ruggedly handsome national park ranger clash.
Ferguson makes a convincing and heartfelt case for how opposites attract . . . For readers who like their romance on the sweet side, this will hit the spot. --Publishers Weekly
When her business partner is accused of serious financial crimes, superstar influencer Cat Cranwell--an engineered marvel of beauty, energy, and fun--falls from her penthouse perch. Desperate to get away from the online trolls and paparazzi documenting her disgrace, Cat accepts her uncle's offer to work with him in Kannery National Park, Montana. About as far as possible from life as she's known it.
Cat's world shifts from the swirling haze of likes and comments to literal blizzards of frostbite temperatures and waist-deep snow. In place of negotiating brand deals, she finds herself negotiating at the ledge of a frozen lake with her die-hard Polar Bear Plunge coworkers. Instead of padding through the marble kitchen of her Manhattan loft, she's sharing a tent-sized cabin with a roommate eager to bond like characters in sitcoms. But something curious is also happening in this overwhelming breath of fresh air as she reacquaints with the most honest parts of herself and begins to ask the hard questions. Can Cat love herself with, and without, the world watching?
Then there's that other tiny problem--she's falling for Zaiah, the ruggedly handsome park ranger--and he hates anything remotely connected to social media, quite possibly her included.
Famous for a Living features a delightful, wholesome romance filled with plenty of swoon worthy tension but none of the spice. Discussion questions are included for book clubs to gush over the ruggedly beautiful national park setting or the quirky, relatable characters.
