Star Struck
Mercedes Grant is known to the world as Stormy Ryan, action hero. Her
movie-star status has led to some unpleasant interactions in the past,
and even a few stalkers, but none has ever come close enough to her to
seem dangerous—until now.
When she receives a death threat on her
personal cell phone, she is understandably shaken. Seizing the
opportunity to take some time away from the limelight while the police
investigate the phone call, Mercedes escapes to her remote cabin near
Idaho’s Snake River. She knows it is the perfect place to lie low, but
she doesn’t realize how low she’ll actually feel once she arrives. After
days of suffering from a cold she just can’t shake, Mercedes visits the
town physician, Luke Parker.
The handsome doctor, a fan of the stunning
celebrity, performs the necessary tests and is devastated at the
unexpected diagnosis he must give her. Mercedes is sick—really sick. He
knows she can handle crazy fans, but the news he has to give is another
story. As Mercedes struggles to come to terms with her new future, she
relies on Luke’s support. But neither imagines the disease is not the
only danger Mercedes is facing—because just out of view, someone is
watching her and is determined to make good on their threat.
