In this personal book from the star of many beloved and classic film comedies -- from The Producers to Young Frankenstein, Blazing saddles to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory -- Gene Wilder writes about a side of his life the public hasn't seen on the screen. Kiss Me Like a Stranger is not an autobiography in the usual sense of the word, and it's certainly not another celebrity "tell-all." Instead, Wilder has chosen to write about resonant moments in his life, events that led him to an understanding of the art of acting, and -- more important -- to an understanding of how to give love to and receive love from a woman. Wilder writes compellingly about the creative process on stage and screen, and divulges moments from life on the sets of some of the most iconic movies of our time. In this book, he talks about everything from his experiences in psychoanalysis to why he got into acting and later comedy (his first goal was to be a Shakespearean actor), and how a Midwestern childhood with a sick mother changed him. Wilder explains why he became an actor and writer, and about the funny, wonderful movies he made with Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Richard Pryor, and Harrison Ford, among many others. He candidly reveals his failures in love, and writes about the overwhelming experience of marrying comedienne Gilda Radner, as well as what finally had to happen for him to make a true and lasting commitment to another woman. A thoughtful, revealing, and winsome book about life, love, and the creative process, the New York Times bestseller Kiss Me Like A Stranger is one actor's life in his own words.

Dragan Carter isn’t good enough for his best friend, June. Growing up poor in Oak Valley, he kept his expectations low: teach himself computer programming and take care of his mom and four younger siblings when his dad went on a bender. No way was he good enough for beautiful, smart June Beaumont, even if she was his best friend. June Beaumont’s life was perfect. Or that’s what everyone else thought anyway. And with two doting parents, a prosperous family bookstore, and a group of close friends, who could blame them? Dragan, her best friend since kindergarten, was the only person who saw the real June, the person behind all the storybook stuff that made up her perfect life. Dragan was the one who let her be real, the one who helped her pick up the pieces after her parents were killed in a car accident. But when June’s grandparents pass the once-booming bookstore to her, the truth is irrefutable: the fairytale is over. The bookstore is deeply in debt, and June can’t seem to find her footing to save it. Still, Dragan is by her side, totally oblivious to the fact that she finds him impossibly hot, ambitious, and talented. While Dragan rushes to sell an app he’s been working on to help save the bookstore, he needs her help to deter his family from their over-bearing questions. The solution? Asking his best friend to be his fake girlfriend. As Dragan and June try to save the bookstore and give his family a reason to stop pestering him, their attraction becomes undeniable and their true feelings come to the surface. But when your best friend is the only thing you can count on with the sand shifting beneath your feet, is it worth the risk to follow your heart?

From USA Today best-selling authors W Winters and Amelia Wilde comes a sinful romance with a touch of dark and angst that will keep you gripping the edge of your seat … and begging for more. I should have known when I couldn’t keep my eyes off her that this would be a mistake. I was hired to protect her, this woman who’s lost everything yet there’s an obvious fire that blazes behind her beautiful gaze. She stares back, daring and tempting me. It calls to a side of me that’s darker and longs to tame her. We both have secrets, we both have a past we’re not ready to face. More than that, we both want to get lost in each other, falling into a forbidden game of control and power. Of submission and dominance. The moment she agrees to my terms, I know I’ve crossed a line. One of many rules I’m willing to break. No one can know, not a soul, but secrets in the life I lead never last for long.

My love is poison. His kiss is mine. “The first time he saw me I was shattered glass, and he was a shadow. If I had stayed, he would have just faded away.” It’s strange how easy it is to tell our stories to a stranger’s eyes. The truth about Connor Stratford and I had always been a sad tale. Over ten years of chasing, tears, lies, vows, and leaving. Two people who never loved each other at the same time, but couldn’t let each other go. Now here I was telling our story over drinks midday in an airport bar with my old diary clutched in my hand. Telling some version of our story, anyway. I left him once with no goodbye. Now I was returning home to give him what he needed to move on. “It’s important. It’s what you’re thinking.” I knew what his message meant, sent in the middle of the night after I woke from a fever dream. He was finally ready, and so was I. I just needed to finally give him the kiss he begged for. The one that meant goodbye.
