The True Love Quilting Club (2010)
“—Sylvie Douglas Parks Rodriquez Cleary, failed mother, wife, and actress Knowing she was going onstage with an untested leading man had Emma’s stomach in knots. Sam wasn’t an actor, and while he might know the lines, he didn’t know any of the moves. How was she expected to pull off a performance good enough to wow Malcolm Talmadge? She paced. She fretted. She wrung her hands.
Then just before the curtain was about to go up, Sam—wearing the costume of Colonel Jon Grant—looked over at her and sai...d, “You, Emma Parks, are going to nail this. You’ve always been destined for stardom.”
In that moment, an invincible calm settled over her, and she felt as if she could do anything.
For the next hour and a half, she performed as she’d never performed before. Sam followed her lead, flawlessly reciting his lines.

But the most poignant moment of all was when she played Valerie and Sam played himself.MoreLess
