Description

Stephanie Beatty, professor of Shakespeare and medieval studies in New York, never thought she'd be orphaned, divorced, and childless at 38. Worse, after three years at her new university, she still hasn't made any real connections. Her one escape is daydreaming about her favorite Shakespearean actor, William Lindsey. But daydreams are just daydreams...right? A flippant invitation changes everything when William agrees to workshop with her students, and suddenly, Stephanie finds herself spending a whirlwind weekend with her beloved actor. But will her fear of loss-and Will's distrust of his own judgment-condemn their fledgling relationship before it can open its wings? Full of literary references to the Bard and other classics, An Unperfect Actor is the deeply emotional and often bitingly funny character study of a fangirl and the object of her adoration, trying to negotiate the complexities of love from two different worlds.

About the Author

Madeleine Archer Chastain is the pen name of a writer and K-12 educator who was born in Greenville, South Carolina, and now lives in New England. She is in her thirties, divorced, with one child. Her secret dream is one day to get her doctorate in literature so she can teach college. Writing The Fangirl Chronicles is Maddy's way of exploring the fascinating world of social media and fandoms, and of combining her love of literature with her interest in writing romance and erotica. For obvious reasons, she would not particularly like her school district to find out that writing smut is her "other career."
