Acts Of Love Michael, Judith

Jessica Fontaine has spent two decades as Hollywood's golden girl — beloved by millions, isolated by fame. When she walks away from the spotlight to teach drama at a small Pacific Northwest college, she expects anonymity and a fresh start. What she finds is Luke Cameron, a sculptor whose talent matches his stubbornness, and a connection that feels dangerous because it feels real. But Jessica's past isn't something you can outrun when it's been photographed, archived, and sold as entertainment. Judith Michael (the pen name of husband-wife duo Judith Barnard and Michael Falk) writes romance with bite — these aren't passive heroines waiting to be saved. This is for readers who want their love stories tangled up with ambition, reinvention, and the question of whether you can ever truly leave your old life behind.
