Onstage for Love — W.E.D. Ross

Beautiful. Talented. Lucky. That describes young Helen Green, the leading lady of Porthaven's regional theater. Not only is her career moving surely and swiftly, but she and Jim Prentiss, the theater's gifted set designer, share a very special closeness.

Then Alan Brown, the charismatic TV actor, comes to town to appear opposite Helen, and her whole world spins into a dizzying new orbit. She knows Alan has his faults, his moods -- what dynamic, creative man doesn't? -- but she can't help falling madly in love with him. And Helen is beside herself with joy when the glamorous Alan wants to join their lives both professionally and in marriage. Yet why does an inner voice warn her something is wrong?
