Dream On, Ramona Riley

Ramona Riley put her dream of being a Hollywood costume designer on hold when she quit art school to come home and take care of her family. Twelve years later, she still lives in the small town of Clover Lake. Then a miracle happens—a major big-budget movie comes to film in Clover Lake. The costume designer is Ramona’s idol, and the star is Dylan Monroe, Ramona’s first kiss. Dylan, the daughter of rock stars and a survivor of their negligent, chaotic parenting, needs this film to go well to prove she’s more than the wild, spoiled, nepo baby the tabloids depict. When Dylan realizes Ramona is the same girl she kissed on that fateful night so long ago, she understands why she’s so drawn to the waitress. Soon, Dylan and Ramona are dating, and what started as a summer fling deepens into more. Both are hiding relationship-ending secrets, however, and neither has talked about what will happen when filming ends. This contemporary fake-dating romance is multilayered, with plenty of deep emotion, revealing backstories, humor, and steamy scenes that scorch the pages.
