Book excerpt: **The first romantic comedy in a new series by USA Today-bestselling author Angela Casella!** Does it count as cruel and unusual punishment if you’re forced to be an extra with your enemy? Lucas I figured being a movie extra would be a harmless distraction—a way for me to forget that my life is imploding and I'm the one who pulled the trigger. But it turns out ninety percent of being an extra is sitting around, so I have nothing to do but dwell. Worse, I have to spend every last minute on set with a woman who’s connected to the incident that sent my life off course. I’m determined to help her, thereby evening the scales of justice imbalanced by my parents, but Delia Evans is so sunshiney and naïve and… Well, extra. And, to my utter astonishment, I find myself wanting more of her. *** Delia It seemed like fate when I got hired to be in this movie. My high school crush is the lead actor, and judging by the number of times my mother has accused me of being dramatic, I’m a natural actress. Only it turns out my former crush is a jerk, being an extra is shockingly boring, and I’m paired with a man whose last name ensures he's my enemy. Lucas Burke is gorgeous, but even if he weren’t a Burke, I could never fall for such a conceited know-it-all. Or at least that’s what I think until accidents start happening on set…

I especially don’t want a new roommate who’s loud, mouthy, and so painfully hot I can’t keep my eyes off her. Not that I’m interested in Mira Evans. She’s made it very clear that she agrees with the ex who famously broke up with me for being “too basic.” But Mira breaks her ankle a few hours after moving in, and a couple of days later we're stuck in an elevator...in the dark. Secrets are revealed; lines are crossed. Now, this woman I wanted to avoid knows more about me than some of my best friends. Mira I'm a workaholic who can't work, and staying cooped up inside is driving me crazy. Not to mention my no-good ex-boyfriend took Halloween a little too literally this year and got a psychic to hex me. I might not believe in magic, but I can't deny I feel like I've been hexed. I have a broken ankle, and I'm falling for my roommate, a man who seems as adventurous as a pumpkin spice latte served up in a hand-knit sweater. But getting stuck in that elevator with Danny proved to me there's much more to him than there appears to be...and I'm not the only one who's noticed. Maybe cabin fever has amped up my paranoia, but I get the feeling we're being watched. **An interconnected standalone in the Finding You series.**

If I weren’t unemployed and broke, I’d leave, but this crappy half-a-house is my only possession. So I stay in the hopes that I can convince her to sell.
