Former child actress, Danielle "Dani" Winter, left Hollywood to transform an old cinema into a dinner theater, seeing the project as her chance to take control of her future. The middle-of-nowhere location in Wisconsin is a perfect escape from backstabbing celebrity friends. The small town welcomes her help with open arms, but one man questions her plan.
After unsuccessful writing stints on both coasts, Paul Howell returns home to New Hope. He's shocked to discover that his sister has sold the family business to a beautiful woman. With the encouragement of his neighbors, he reluctantly agrees to write Dani's next musical.
Working together, they discover more similarities than differences and grow close. When Dani's former best friend and America's sweetheart, Kara Kensington arrives, their blossoming relationship is threatened in more ways than one.

Excerpt
Andy whistled. “We’re ready, boss.”
She withdrew her hand and straightened.
Paul’s throat was too tight to offer a verbal reply. Turning, he flashed Andy a thumbs-up.
Andy led an elderly couple to the microphone.
The man wore a seersucker suit and held the hand of a woman dressed in a floor-length, pastel gown. Under the stage lights, the couple’s white hair and pale skin glimmered. “Hello.” The man bobbed his head. “Thank you for having us. We are Margaret and Sherman. We will sing a duet.” Sherman waved to Andy and held out the other hand.
Margaret stepped forward and stood on the opposite side, interlacing her fingers with her partner.
Focused on each other, Sherman and Margaret belted a pitch-perfect standard.
Paul straightened. The performers commanded attention, and the sweetness of their interaction enraptured him. I’d like to have that someday . He slipped a finger under his crew neck collar. With only inches of separation, he heightened his awareness of her so close to his right side. He hadn’t felt anything either professionally or personally for a long time. At the theater, he couldn’t deny the rush of excitement for both. If he made a move, he risked his career. Would holding back shutter his heart?
Dani leaned toward him. “Now, they have a spark,” she murmured. “I can’t believe your family isn’t the most talented in town.”
She withdrew her hand and straightened.
