Harley's Diva

Christmas day, 1963.
The world collectively holds its breath. Beloved academy award winning actress Clarice Moreau is missing. Two days earlier her private jet disappeared without a trace, while flying from Vancouver to Toronto, Canada.
Only two people in the world know that she has crashed high in the mountains of central British Columbia. She is the sole survivor and with serious injuries, awakens inside the mangled fuselage, buffeted by hurricane force winds, snow, and subzero temperatures.
Her friends, associates, and millions of fans fear the worst—they will never see her again.
Only she and rancher Harley Jacob know the truth.
But the beautiful Hollywood A-list personality is alive.
The day before, rancher and cowboy Harley Jacob had escaped to a remote high-country line-cabin to escape the memories of his late wife, Tess. Christmas is the toughest time of the year for him.
Lost in heavy fog, cloud, and snow, the Lear flies directly over his cabin just before ditching in an alpine meadow. In spite of blizzard-like conditions, Harley makes his way to the crash site. He discovers Moreau unconscious and injured, but alive inside the Lear's wreaked fuselage, hanging from her safety belts.
The blizzard continues as he stays with her overnight. He provides first aid, food, and keeps her warm and comfortable. She is astonished that he doesn’t recognize her. While he is intelligent and well educated, he never goes to movies and knows very little of the entertainment world. He is perhaps the first man she has spent time with in her adult life, who is not ‘star struck’ in her presence.
Soon they are greatly enjoying each other’s company. The following afternoon as the blizzard continues and no rescue aircraft having arrived, Harley decides to move her down to his cabin just below the timberline. It is dark by the time they arrive. Later that evening they have a long, erotic encounter—the first of many.
The rest of the book is the ongoing escalation of their romance. She makes a few more visits to his ranch; he travels to Los Angeles and is her escort to the 1964 Golden Globe awards, where Clarice is nominated in several categories.
But the path is not smooth. Her former lover and fiancé is embezzling from their studio, and has hatched a plan to destroy her reputation. Near the end, she is infuriated with Harley for an apparent lie and ends their budding relationship.
Only in the final pages, do we learn whether their love survives.
