Elise Chere is Hollywood's Hottest and a thoroughly turbulent Tinseltown Temptress. In her rare private moments away from the cameras, the runways, the movie sets, and the seemingly never-ending burn of the spotlight, is just a broken, lonely little girl that is longing for love, but lost on how to find it.
Josh Jenkins is a handsome, wholesome, and humble former football star who is ready to give up on chasing Hollywood fame in favor of returning to his Hill Country home in Texas. But thanks to the relentless efforts of the best agent a best friend could ever have, the door to a dream awaits.
When

The lazy haze that hangs over Hollywood sets in on the bright stars as they fall from grace. Elise Chere and Josh Jenkins will need strength and light from their faith, family, and friends to find their way home.
From Hollywood to Gruene is an intense and intimate story of love and lust, fame and fortune, loneliness, and loss and explores the wondrous gifts we are given through redemption.
