Short Story Press Presents Love On Demand


Book Description

Short Story Press Presents Love On Demand by Sade Andria Zabala Cashmere Blake is Hollywood’s newest “It” girl. After 3 years of trying to get in the business, she finally has it all; fame, money and fortune. She gives all of this up to take a break in her humble hometown. But Hollywood is not so easy to let go of its new star. • Cashmere’s manager forces Philip, her costar and on-screen boyfriend, to go with her and pretend they’re going on a mysterious winter vacation in the hopes of getting some publicity for their failing TV show. This causes complications as Cashmere has secretly been feeling something every time she and Philip filmed a scene. • Things heat up when their managers and agencies keep pressuring them to date. It doesn’t help that Philip thinks she’s trying to steal his spotlight, and thus spends his time ignoring Cashmere during their pretend vacation. • Every night, Cashmere watches Philip sleep and imagines what life would be like if he could be just a little bit nicer to her. Cashmere realizes all her musings are futile as Philip hates her! Things get more confusing when it seems as though Philip is finally beginning to open up to Cashmere when he asks for help with his acting skills. Can Cashmere figure out what she feels before their “vacation” ends? Or will their story remain to be another unfulfilled Hollywood love on demand?
