Looking at the towering competition for a role in a Jackson
Prescott film directed by Adrian Turnow, Anabelle Izzolo has no illusions of
getting the part; she instead auditions in hope that the casting director
notices and hires her as a stuntwoman, especially for a fight scene. She never expected a tryout against muscular
hunk Prescott, Turnow giving her a screenshot, or makeup artist Tyrone saying
the camera will adore her. During her
trial filming of a fight, she clubs Jackson in the nose; but instead of dismissal,
Ana gets the role.
At home, Jackson’s Gran wants to meet this Ana but he insists this
is work not love. In Serendipity,
California where the filming will occur, Ana goes to meet with Jackson at a
restaurant to discuss the movie. Instead
of focusing on her surroundings, Ana dreams of Jackson; but fails to see her
attacker until the assault began.
Finding his cell phone number in her bag, San Placido County Hospital
calls Jackson. He takes her to his house
to heal and keep her safe. As they fall
in love to the delight of Gran, he struggles with trust issues and she cannot
accept he wants her when he could have any of the leggy big boobs.
The First Prescott Bachelors romance is an enjoyable contemporary
starring a down to earth (Gran would have him no other way) doubting Thomas
star and a doubting Thomasina wannabe stuntwoman. Although the storyline decelerates in the
middle, Cindy Dees authors a pleasant Hollywood tale.
