About this ebook

Lights, Camera, Awkward!

For Ali, landing an Emmy for her soap opera role has been a longtime dream, and this year, it feels within reach. That is, until Luke Carter walks onto set – the ex who broke her heart ten years ago. Now, she has to act like she's falling for him all over again--on screen! When Luke acts blameless, Ali's frustration and inability to ignore how endearing he is leads to embarrassing blunders. How can she possibly maintain her carefully constructed walls when the lines between their scripted romance and the undeniable sparks igniting between are becoming blurred?

Luke is excited about starting his new career, but it's hard to work alongside Ali, the only woman he ever loved, the woman who ghosted him for no reason. When the director orders them to practice their lines outside of work, Luke does his best to remain professional, but the past they both thought happened is not all it seems as the truth is revealed through fumbling lines, both on and off camera!

The Soap Opera Blunder is a clean & wholesome romantic comedy. The New Beginnings Series books are clean & wholesome romantic comedies featuring forced proximity, second chances, HEA's, and lovable, recurring characters. This series is best if read in order, but each story can be read as a standalone.

I've read several books written by Cristina Ryan; she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the seventh book in the Holiday Romance Series; it is a stand-alone short story. The story is about Ali & Luke.

They were a couple years ago, but everything ended suddenly. She's struggled to get past it and what he did, however having to star across from him now on her show might be more than she can handle. When he got the part he knew it was where he needed to be but not why. Can he work with her after what she did? The power of forgiveness for the person giving it is weaved throughout the story. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
