That's a terrible thing to happen any day, and especially during the holidays when all the family would likely be around and even more anxious and stressed. Best wishes that the missing kid is found safe.

Scenes from the Heart by Marie Ferrarella, an f/m contemporary second-chance career romance between an actress and director, 5th in her Marie's Originals series of reprints of her old Jove & Loveswept romances. It's not linked to a paperback, so I don't know when it originally came out and considering that I'm going to be spending the next while last-minute coupon-harvesting at Kobo, eh, I don't want to take the time to look.
True love doesn't die---but it can go into hiding
In the beginning they lived on love and dreams. Then Hollywood success divided them... jealousy tore them further apart... distrust led to the final break. Adam left -- and Bridgette told herself she didn't miss him. — Later, the head of Bounty Studios insists that they work together. On location in Utah, they argue over how to revise Bridgette's screenplay of a film Adam is directing. Between takes, Adam's professional criticisms inspire Bridgette's personal accusations. Yet her fiery displays of temper leave Adam unruffled--- until the temptation to succumb to hot embraces breaks his self-control and they enact their own torrid love scenes under the blistering desert sun.
