Zora Bennett is a 28-year-old screenwriter in Los Angeles, known for her sharp wit and ability to craft unforgettable love stories-except she's never had one of her own. After years of struggling to break into the industry, she finally lands a career-changing opportunity: writing the script for a major Hollywood film. The catch? She has to work alongside the film's A-list leading man, Theo Whitaker-a British heartthrob known for his charm, good looks, and playboy reputation.
Theo is at a turning point in his career. Tired of being typecast as the charming romantic lead, he's looking for a role that proves he's more than just a pretty face. When he's attached to Zora's film, he insists on helping shape his character, leading to heated creative sessions filled with clashing ideas, stubborn tempers, and undeniable chemistry.
As late-night script rewrites turn into stolen moments and unexpected confessions, Zora finds herself drawn to the man behind the celebrity façade. Theo, captivated by Zora's intelligence and fire, is determined to show her he's not just playing a role-he wants to be the real deal.
But with Hollywood's relentless scrutiny, Zora's fears of being reduced to a tabloid headline, and an industry that still isn't kind to Black women behind the scenes, their budding romance faces impossible odds. When a leaked scandal threatens both their careers, Zora must decide: will she write herself out of the story before she gets hurt, or take a chance on a love that refuses to be scripted?
