Hollywood Baby Affair. Anna DePalo

      

      A fake relationship leads to a real pregnancy! Only from USA TODAY bestselling author Anna DePalo!

      To protect her reputation in a dog-eat-dog town, actress Chiara Feran needs a fake fling fast! Turning to the stuntman on her latest movie, Rick Serenghetti, seems like a sure thing. But in Hollywood, things—and stuntmen—are never what they seem. Rick is actually a wealthy movie producer who stunts for kicks. And boy, is he intrigued by this latest role! But he gets more than he bargained for as the line between fantasy and reality blurs. Soon, a very real baby is on the way. Could a marriage proposal be far behind?

      Hollywood Baby Affair is part of The Serenghetti Brothers series.

      “So you need a boyfriend,” Rick Serenghetti said without preamble.

      She itched to rub the smug smile off his face. “I don’t need anything. This would be a completely optional but mutually advantageous arrangement.”

      And right after this conversation, she was going to have another serious talk with her manager. What had Odele signed her up for?

      “You need me.”

      She burned. He’d made it sound like You want me.

      “I’ve been asked to play many roles, but never a stud.”

      “Don’t get too excited.”

      He grinned. “Don’t worry, I won’t. I have a thing for the doe-eyed, dark-haired look, but since Camilla Belle isn’t available, you’ll do.”

      The flames of temper licked her, not least because he was clued in as to her Hollywood doppelgänger. “So you’ll settle?”

      “I don’t know. Let’s kiss and find out.”

      “If the cameras were rolling, it would be time for a slap right now,” she muttered.

      He caught her wrist and tugged her closer.

      “This isn’t a movie, and you’re no actor!” she objected.

      “Great, because I intend to kiss you for real.”

      Actress and Stuntman Lovefest! More Than Movie Pyrotechnics on Display.

      The gossip website headline ran through Chiara Feran’s head when it shouldn’t have.

      She clung to Stunt Stud’s well-muscled shoulders, four stories up, wind blowing and helicopter blades whipping in the background—trying to act as if her life depended on it when the truth was that only her career did. After all, a gossip site had just written that she and Mr. Stunt Double were an item, and right now she needed the press distracted from her estranged father, a Vegas-loving cardsharp threatening to cause a controversy of his own.

      She tossed her head to keep the hair out of her face. She’d learned
