He needs this job to honor his late wife. She needs to complete her late fiancé’s bucket list to be free.
Former action-movie star Chet has counted the days since he lost his wife last New Year’s Eve almost a year ago. When he’s given a shot at starring in a reboot of her favorite TV show, he jumps at it. But there’s a catch: the producers won’t hire him unless he can prove he’s regained emotional stability—by bringing a steady girlfriend to his five auditions.
Which means: five mandatory dates for this bereft widower.
Social worker Holly lost her fiancé to war. With his good life snuffed out too soon, she feels compelled to finish his bucket list of unselfish deeds. But four years later, several remain, and they’re ridiculously impossible. Until she accomplishes her soldier’s dreams, she can’t even consider moving on with her life.
When they meet on the beach at Getaway Bay, what she doesn’t know is homeless-looking mourner Chet is actually Colt Winchester, screen star and fashion icon. What he doesn’t know is that he’s a means to an end.
When their walls start to crumble on their Christmas season dates, can these two find love again, or will they forever be chasing ghosts?
Escape to Getaway Bay and join the Clean Billionaire Beach Club for some seriously sweet romance.
Each book can be read as a standalone, with a happily-ever-after ending, and clean, sweet-without-losing-the-heat romance!

My Review: 5 StarsIt's not a secret that I love a fun celebrity story, especially when a "normal" person is involved. Holly has basically given up to life to fulfill the items on her deceased fiance's bucket list and this list causes her to be a very selfless woman, which is what leads her to talk to Chet. He is a man who is very down on life after his wife of a dozen years passed away.I fell so in love with the setting that I actually tried to find where Getaway Bay is so I can add it to my bucket list. But my big love was the characters. Chet and Holly have a larger-than-life romance that blossoms from out of nowhere, yet develops in a very natural and sweet way, albeit fairly quickly. I love how they each help and complement the other and are willing to do whatever it takes to assist in their individual healing. That bucket list really added a fun dimension to the story and brought Chet and Holly closer together. I was laughing out loud in several places, earning me a few strange looks from my husband.The swoon was alive and well in this story! Jennifer Griffith has a knack for developing a very realistic and butterfly-inducing romance that resonates deep in my soul. The chemistry ignited flames in my heart that weren't easily put out, even when they weren't kissing. But their relationship is also more than physical, which made it impossible to discount. I was rooting for them from the start.Content: mild+ swoony romance (steamy clean kissing); very vague talk of death
