Vince Luca is just like any other high school guy. His best friend, Alex, is trying to score vicariously through him; his brother is a giant pain; and his father keeps bugging him to get motivated. There is just one thing that really sets him apart for other kids—his father happens to be the head of a powerful crime organization. Needless to say, while Vince''s family''s connections can be handy for certain things (like when teachers are afraid to give him a bad grade), they can put a serious crimp in his dating life. How is he supposed to explain to a girl what his father does for a living? But when Vince meets a girl who finally seems to be worth the trouble, her family turns out to be the biggest problem of all. Because her father is an FBI agent—the one who wants to put his father away for good.

I was beginning to think there were no more heroes left in this world ... Then I met Brax and thought, now here's a beautiful, strong hero prototype: firm-set jaw patterned with golden brown scruff, ruggedly tousled hair, eyes like deep blue pools. Sigh. He had it going on all right. But, oh, so gruff. Irascible. And mysterious, too. Did I mention that I'm a romance novelist with writer's block (and a family secret I'm trying to forget)? And that if I don't find a hero soon, my career will implode? Too bad Brax wasn't a fan of my questioning, nor very happy when that freak accident happened at my sister's wedding near Hollywood by the Sea. With Brax injured, and my sister away on her honeymoon, he and I were forced to spend a month as neighbors. And that's when our pasts came bubbling to the surface until we could no longer ignore them. So much simmered beneath Brax's surface that I had to wonder still: Could he be the hero of the story I had been looking for? Finding Stardust is a clean, feel-good contemporary romance. Read both books in the inspirational Hollywood by the Sea series: Chasing Valentino (book 1) Finding Stardust (book 2)

From the Turner Classic Movies Library: Film and history buffs alike will enjoy this engrossing story of Hollywood's involvement in World War II, as it's never before been told. Remember a time when all of Hollywood—with the expressed encouragement and investment of the government—joined forces to defend the American way of life? It was World War II and the gravest threat faced the nation, and the world at large. Hollywood answered the call to action. This is the riveting tale of how the film industry enlisted in the Allied effort during the second World War—a story that started with staunch isolationism as studios sought to maintain the European market and eventually erupted into impassioned support in countless ways. Industry output included war films depicting battles and reminding moviegoers what they were fighting for, "home-front" stories designed to boost the morale of troops overseas, and even musicals and comedies that did their bit by promoting the Good Neighbor Policy with American allies to the south. Stars like Carole Lombard—who lost her life returning from a war bond-selling tour—Bob Hope, and Marlene Dietrich enthusiastically joined USO performances and risked their own health and safety by entertaining troops near battlefronts; others like James Stewart and Clark Gable joined the fight themselves in uniform; Bette Davis and John Garfield created a starry haven for soldiers in their founding of the Hollywood Canteen. Filmmakers Orson Welles, Walt Disney, Alfred Hitchcock, and others took breaks from thriving careers to make films aiming to shore up alliances, boost recruitment, and let the folks back home know what beloved family members were facing overseas. Through it all, a story of once-in-a-century unity—of a collective need to stand up for humanity, even if it means risking everything—comes to life in this engrossing, photo-filled tale of Hollywood Victory.
