And the Crowd Went Wild

#1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Elizabeth Phillips returns with the next book in her Chicago Stars series
An ex-Hollywood darling with a broken heart…
A super star NFL quarterback who’s lost his game…
An old railcar tucked in the woods…
It’s hard to be alone when all the world wants a piece of you.

After a mortifying—and very public humiliation—Dancy Flynn is desperate to find sanctuary far from the crowd. But where can a washed up, woebegone, aging sex symbol hide? How about making an unannounced appearance at the secluded lake house of the sweet, sensitive high school boyfriend she hasn’t seen in almost twenty years?

But Chicago Stars quarterback Clint Garrett is no longer the kid Dancy remembers. Now, he’s a gridiron superhero, still holding a massive grudge against her for breaking his teenage heart. With no room in his life for either complexity or distractions, he banishes Dancy to an old railroad caboose tucked away into the woods…and out of his sight.

Except Dancy’s not good at staying invisible. Her efforts to rebuild her career clash with Clint’s desperation to regain his focus, all made more complicated by a rescue dog, a local woman in trouble, a meddling mother, an ex with an agenda…and the sizzle of old emotions.

As Dancy attempts to get her life back on track and Clint tries to get his groove back, can these one-time lovers navigate their rocky pasts and complicate present to find themselves…and each other?
