Romance with a co-worker is a terrible idea...unless he was the star of your teenaged fantasies. As a teenager, MELINDA COLE underwent life-saving heart surgery. Ever since, the hyper-efficient stage manager has no patience for wasting time. She devotes herself to what matters most-her friends, her parents, and her job. Once upon a time, her boyfriend had a spot on that list. Then he broke up with her out of nowhere. So now? She's diving deep into her work at Baltimore's cutting-edge theater company, with an eye on becoming a director by next season. MAX CAMERON spent his teen years as the heartthrob star of the number one family sitcom in the U.S. But now, years after his wild child lifestyle ended, he'd be lucky to score a spot on bad reality television. To reinvigorate his career, Max and his cameraman buddy have cooked up an idea they hope will turn viral. At the height of his popularity, he'd visited his number one fan as part of the Grant-a-Wish program. Dropping in on her today would be ratings gold. Melinda has zero idea why Max Cameron, star of her teenage fantasies, has crashed her theater's auditions. Or why he's bearing flowers, a cameraman, and his trademark platinum smile. Before she can ask, the theater's producer sees a stunt casting opportunity. Her boss cuts her a deal-if Melinda convinces Max to take the lead and coaches him to a Bard-worthy performance, then a directorship is hers. Challenge accepted, but she must keep her crush on lock. No one would take her seriously again if she fell for the leading man.

FOR MOST OF HER TWENTY-SOMETHING YEARS, Lily Breit's been comfortable living life in the wings. Not much has changed since college: same apartment, same job, and just a few dates since senior year. The non-dating isn't ideal, but seriously, what's a girl to do when her best friends are married and her weekends are eaten up by family gatherings and work obligations? There are always plenty of men around, but she's either related to them or they don't go for the XX-chromosome. All of that changes on New Year's Eve when a best friend's life-altering news inspires Lily to take some risks. Enter Mitch, a promising paramour, except for one thing: his policy against "strings." Normally, Lily would heed her instincts and stay away, but her resolution is to try new things, right? After the romance falls epically apart, Lily stumbles into David. He wants more than Lily thinks she can give, and when Mitch comes back into her life, she needs to choose between the devil she knows and the one that she doesn't.
