       Something akin to a magnetic field emanated from him.

      It enshrouded her, energizing her from head to toe. What was it? Charisma? Raw, animal sex appeal? Whatever it was, she could see why he’d become a movie star.

      He stared at her, his eyes black pools in the shadows of his face. Even wreathed in darkness like this, he was beautiful.

      The zinging between them built until she thought she would explode.

      “Say something,” she whispered. “You’re making me nervous.” Not nervous in the way he was going to think, but what he didn’t know wouldn’t hurt him.

      “My grandmother likes you.”

      “I like her, too. I bet you I could convince her we’re dating.”

      He exhaled a gust of laughter. “You could convince me without too much trouble.”

      Ana blinked up at him in shock. Her and a movie star? The notion of the two of them as a couple knocked words completely out of her brain.

      She blurted the first thing that came to mind. “Kiss me.”

      Anabelle Izzolo looked around at the gorgeous young women waiting their turn to go out on the mat and wrestle with a stuntman.

She had no business being there. It had seemed like a good idea when she’d signed up for it. But now that the moment was upon her, she felt a giant humiliation coming on.

      Thing was, the write-up on the open casting call had been specific in saying that a fight sequence would be auditioned. She was trying to break into the business as a stuntwoman, so a fight was right up her alley. Of course, she wasn’t going to get the acting part, but she was hoping to catch the casting director’s eye and nab a bit part for some stunt work.
