With her debut film days away from shooting and a debut album riding on perfection, the rising fan named Pop-piano star has no time for distractions. Especially not from the green-eyed demon of an ex who broke her heart. And especially not the internet suddenly obsessed with shipping her with a man she barely knows. Jude is used to pressure. As Real Madrid's newest midfield darling, he's no stranger to cameras, critics, or complicated women. But when a stolen moment with Kamia spirals into a fan-fueled frenzy, he's forced to confront feelings he swore he'd buried - ones he's not sure he has room for. What starts as friendship - tentative, unlikely, unexpected - begins to unravel everything they thought they knew about love, loss, and healing. Secrets get leaked. Old flames resurface. But amidst it all, they might just save room for love.
