Stone Princess

Presley Marks has become a cliché: the jilted bride. Standing before her friends and family in a white dress, she announces that her fiancé has texted to say he forgot about the wedding. Humiliated and furious, she retreats into the routine of her days.

That routine centers on the Clifton Forge Garage, where she works. The job is plain, and it keeps her out of the spotlight, which is what she wants. The quiet ends when Shaw Valance arrives in town. He is a notorious Hollywood actor, cast in a movie about the town's infamous murder.

Between scenes, Shaw spends his time at the garage, watching the crew build his custom motorcycle and needling Presley with a handsome smile. Once filming wraps, he is expected to return to his fancy life. Instead he buys the house next door.

The purchase may prove costly. Presley's ex-fiancé comes back, and he brings a war between old rivals with him. It threatens to burn down both of their houses. This is a small-town contemporary romance, with a slow, teasing pull between a woman who wants to be unseen and a man who is very much seen.
