In the dim glow of the stage lights, Emily's heart beats to a different rhythm-one that leads her straight to Morgan, the enigmatic drummer and seasoned stagehand working alongside her on the school's production of Little Shop of Horrors. With Morgan's experience and Emily's eagerness to learn, they make the perfect team backstage. But as the curtain rises on opening night, sparks fly in more ways than one.
Morgan, older, wiser, and seemingly out of reach, has always kept a low profile at school. His passion lies in performing with his band, and when he finally takes the stage for a big concert, he's surprised to see Emily in the crowd, cheering him on with a warmth that makes his heart race.
Between set changes and sound checks, their connection deepens, and Morgan finds himself drawn to Emily's infectious enthusiasm. As the musical's final curtain call approaches, they must navigate their growing feelings and the pressures of their separate worlds. Will Morgan and Emily find the courage to step into the spotlight together, or will their dreams and fears keep them apart?
In this sweet and heartfelt romance, two stagehands discover that sometimes the real magic happens behind the scenes-and in the unspoken moments that follow a cheering crowd.
