This Christmas, she's about to become her own.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt forty-eight, \u003cb\u003eClaire Weston\u003c\/b\u003e is a small-town celebrity. Every December she takes the stage as the leading lady in Merry Hollow's annual Christmas play-a beloved local tradition that lets her dust off the spotlight she once knew so well. Decades ago, she played the sultry Raven Chandler on the hit soap \u003ci\u003eThe Edge of Desire\u003c\/i\u003e. Now she's back in her hometown and a schoolteacher, tends to her marriage, and saves her acting for the holidays. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this year's production feels different. Her new co-star, \u003cb\u003eEthan Blake\u003c\/b\u003e, is twenty years younger, dangerously charming, and very aware of who she used to be. Their chemistry is instant-and impossible to ignore. Every rehearsal runs a little hotter, every \"stage kiss\" lingers a little too long, until the line between acting and wanting begins to blur.\u003cbr\u003eHer husband \u003cb\u003eDaniel\u003c\/b\u003e has always loved watching her shine, but seeing other men drawn to her stirs something unexpected-something thrilling, possessive, and just a little forbidden. And as the snow falls and the curtain rises, Claire finds herself at the center of a passion she never expected to feel again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eClaire Unwrapped\u003c\/b\u003e is a steamy, emotional holiday romance about marriage, trust, and the intoxicating power of being desired-on stage, and off.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kirsten McCurran\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798241994578\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.47d","brand":"Kirsten McCurran","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874537222399,"sku":"9798241994578","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/claire-unwrapped-kirsten-mccurran-9798241994578","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
