      In this unique romance series debut, two timeless young lovers find each other amid the madcap antics of the silent film industry.   Regardless of what the calendar says, Jack and Susan are always, eternally, twenty-seven years old. They are destined for each other like Hepburn and Tracy, Dagwood and Blondie, Nick and Nora. And somehow, they always acquire a shaggy white dog on the way to falling in love.   In 1913, the world is thrilling to that fabulous invention, the motion picture. When Susan’s Broadway career is ended by injury, she takes up work writing for a New York studio. And when Jack sees Susan, he’s willing to do anything—even break into a new business—to get her attention.   When the movies move West, Jack and Susan—and their three-legged dog Tripod!—go along with them. But they soon discover that not all of the bad guys are on the silver screen.
