Whirlwind Romances, Book 1
Date Published: November 20, 2025
romcom.
Eleanor Marshall is the worst kind of cliché—a fifty-something
divorcee thrown over for a younger woman. Her best friend thinks it’s
time for a reset, and she has just the thing. She enters Eleanor in a contest
to win a dream date in Paris with a real life romcom heartthrob.
Aging actor, Geoffrey Harrison, is struggling to resuscitate his flagging
romcom movie career—turns out romantic heroes are only getting younger.
So, when his agent cooks up a social media contest, Geoffrey agrees to a
romantic dinner with the winner . . . the unexpectedly attractive Eleanor.
When the publicity stunt blows up the internet, Geoffrey talks Eleanor into a
ten-day fake romance, complete with handholding, candlelight dinners, and, of
course, kissing. It’s like something straight out of one of his movies.
And just like in the movies, it isn’t long before their fake romance is
anything but. However, before Eleanor can admit her feelings for Geoffrey, her
fragile trust is shattered.
Can Geoffrey script a Hollywood ending and win Eleanor back? Or will she deny
herself a second chance at her own happily-ever-after?
About the Author
I’ve dreamed of writing romantic fiction since I was fifteen and my older
sister sneaked a copy of Kathleen Woodiwiss’ Shanna to me and told me to read
it. Now I write women’s fiction and contemporary romance under the name
Rebecca Heflin.
In case you’re wondering, Rebecca Heflin is an abbreviated version of my
great-great grandmother’s name: Sarah Anne Rebecca Heflin Apple Smith. Whew!
And you wondered why I shortened it.
I’m a member of Romance Writers of America (RWA), Florida Romance Writers, RWA
Contemporary Romance, RWA Aged to Perfection Seasoned Romance Writers, and
Florida Writers Association. My mountain-climbing husband and I recently
located to central Virginia.
