Skin Deep

The last thing Valerie needs, after escaping an abusive marriage to an alcoholic and rebuilding her life, is a broody, secretive, standoffish man. But that’s exactly what she gets when she becomes a makeup artist on the set of a hit sitcom and draws the attention of the series’ star.

Will he learn that the life he’s been living has been built on a lie or will he be doomed to repeat the sins of his father?
