Synopsis

You've Got Mail meets Confessions of a Shopaholic meets Parks and Rec--this romance might have to move mountains.When her business partner is accused of serious financial crimes, superstar influencer Cat Cranwell—an engineered marvel of beauty, energy, and fun—falls from her penthouse perch. Des­perate to get away from the online trolls and paparazzi docu­menting her disgrace, Cat accepts her uncle’s offer to work with him in Kannery National Park, Montana. About as far as possible from life as she’s known it.Cat’s world shifts from the swirling haze of likes and comments to lit­eral blizzards of frostbite temperatures and waist-deep snow. In place of negotiating brand deals, she finds herself negotiating at the ledge of a frozen lake with her die-hard Polar Bear Plunge coworkers. Instead of padding through the marble kitchen of her Manhattan loft, she’s sharing a tent-sized cabin with a roommate eager to bond like characters in sitcoms. But something curious is also happening in this overwhelming breath of fresh air as she reacquaints with the most honest parts of her­self and begins to ask the hard questions. Can Cat love herself with, and without, the world watching?Then there’s that other tiny problem—she’s falling for Zaiah, the ruggedly handsome park ranger—and he hates anything remotely connected to social media, quite possibly her included.Written with bestselling author Melissa Ferguson’s signature wit and charm, this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy of opposites attract is full of hilarious romp and a romance that will melt readers’ hearts.Sweet romantic comedyStand-alone novelSocial Media Guidelines and a quiz are included in the audiobook PDF download.

Goodreads review by Debra

This book is a journey but for me it was not a romantic journey (yes, there is some romance) but more the journey that Cat Cranwell takes while learning what is important in life. Cat Cranwell has millions of followers as an influencer but when an app partnership goes wrong, she loses followers and......more

Goodreads review by ♥Milica♥

My main problem here was that I didn't like the main character. She was SO SHALLOW, every time she'd describe something I'd be like oh no here we go again. I was so tired of all the brands being mentioned from the second time it happened, and it kept happening many times after that. I was kind of hop......more

Quotes

'Calling all fans of slow burn, opposites attract romance! Melissa Ferguson brings another fresh, delightful romcom in FAMOUS FOR A LIVING. Cat and Zaiah are an imperfectly perfect match with swoony chemistry and plenty of back-and-forth banter. The gorgeous national park setting provides a lush backdrop for this fish-out-of-water story as influencer Cat hopes to escape a media fallout and finds much, much more. Readers who loved THE CUL-DE-SAC WARS and MEET ME IN THE MARGINS won’t be disappointed in Ferguson's latest read!' USA TODAY bestselling author Emma St. Clair

'FAMOUS FOR A LIVING is a heartwarming and funny read with quirky characters and the occasional moose. It takes the reader on a virtual escape to the mountains and hot springs of Montana and the lofts and busy streets of New York City. Melissa Ferguson has given us a sparkling, sweet rom-com with a lot of heart.' Suzanne Allain, author of MR. MALCOLM'S LIST

Ferguson (Meet Me in the Margins) illuminates the value of true friends and true love in this wholesome rom-com . . . Ferguson makes a convincing and heartfelt case for how opposites attract, and a host of endearing supporting characters--especially Cat's uncle Terry, her bestie Serena, and her quirky roommate, Mina--add charm. For readers who like their romance on the sweet side, this will hit the spot. Publishers Weekly

This small-town opposites-attract romantic comedy features likable, relatable protagonists and a plethora of delightful secondary characters. Cat and Zaiah are well drawn, with just enough backstory to show their motivations. The city-versus-country theme is well executed, and the storyline is paced well. VERDICT Ferguson's (Meet Me in the Margins) chaste, heartfelt, hilarious novel is perfect for fans of Sophie Cousens and Jen DeLuca. Library Journal
