Before filming starts on her next movie, America's sweetheart, Grace Carradine, wants a girls' night out. As she dons a disguise to evade the paparazzi, her brown hair isn't the only deception, so is her upcoming marriage to her costar. Naval-pilot-turned-author, Sebastian "Bash" Baron finds his friends are pairing up and starting families. Given his history, he knows that life isn't for him—even if the period romance he wrote is being made into a movie. Those stories only exist in fiction—or other people's lives. The two begin a secret romance, meant to last only as long as the starlet is on location in Bash's hometown. When the paparazzi, obligations, and pride tear them apart, will Bash come to his senses in time, or will Grace marry the wrong man?
