What if you were to meet the number-one person on your laminated list—you know, that list you joke about with your significant other about which five celebrities you’d be allowed to run off with if ever given the chance? And of course since it’ll never happen it doesn’t matter… Mormon housewife Becky Jack is seven months pregnant with her fourth child when she meets celebrity hearththrob Felix Callahan. Twelve hours, one elevator ride, and one alcohol-free dinner later, something has happened…though nothing has happened. It isn’t sexual. It isn’t even quite love. But a month later Felix shows up in Salt Lake City to visit and before they know what’s hit them, Felix and Becky are best friends. Really. Becky’s husband is pretty cool about it. H er children roll their eyes. Her neighbors gossip endlessly. But Felix and Becky have something special…something unusual, something completely impossible to sustain. Or is it? A magical story, The Actor and the Housewife explores what could happen when your not-so-secret celebrity crush walks right into real life and changes everything

I don't know what I was thinking when I picked out this book. 1) I didn't like her last book very much. 2) I hate that movie Notting Hill, which it kinda reminds me of. 3) It is basically a full length book with the outlook of one of those Mormon housewife blogs: you know, the ones who have perfect pictures of their perfectly beautiful kids and their super husbands they are so much in love with. It's just creepy. And annoying. I'm mean for being spiteful at those nice Mormon girls but I don't trust them. Nobody's that completely content; it smacks of deep dark secrets to me. So I couldn't spend a minute more with the charming Ms. Becky Jack.
