Home of My Heart

Tessa Murray has two rules: never date an actor and never fall for a client. Christopher Micheloni is both and her rules have never been this inconvenient. Tessa has a dream – buy the crumbling abbey in her New Jersey hometown and turn it into the place she needed as a girl: a haven for artists, misfits, and the dreamers the world overlooks. But after five years designing in L.A., two disastrous clients, and one humiliating reality show, the dream is slipping away. Until Hollywood's newest heartthrob overhears her worst day – and hires her on the spot. Chris has everything he's ever wanted: fame, choice roles, Oscar buzz. If only they delivered the joy he was promised. Buying his first house and hiring an interior designer without the approval of his manager-mother only adds more questions about who he really is when no one is watching. Tessa knows. She sees him. And Chris sees her. Not her dress size. Not the failure the Internet decided she was. Her. Except a designer doesn't fall for her client and a woman like Tessa doesn't get a man like Chris. And her dream fifteen years in the making is running out of time.
