Welcome to Los Angeles! Home of Hollywood magic, high-rise buildings, and occasionally hope. For creatives, it's one of the best places to build a career, but not everyone can handle the city of angels.
He needs a reason to stay. She needs a way.
Falling into an emotional spiral following a tragic accident, James Barton questioned his ability to handle life in Los Angeles. After abandoning his passions, he was staring at a stack of bills looming as tall as the stack of rejection letters. Broke and downhearted, he lands one last job before making his choice.
He's ready to give up on more than just LA, until a chance encounter changes everything.
With incredible friends, an amazing career, and a cute apartment in the heart of the Arts District, Alexis Strauss is living the California dream. She'll admit her dating life could use some work, but nobody is perfect. Behind her joyful facade, though, secrets haunt her. Secrets that could upend everything she's worked for.
She loves LA, but a toxic family is doing everything they can to hold her back.
Co-workers in love, found family, and he falls first tropes are just a taste of what you can expect in this contemporary romance novel. Packed with raw, powerful emotions, and a sprinkling of spice, Let Me Love You Anyway is book one in the Hollywoodland series and author Jordyn Barnes's debut novel.
