TW: Strong sexual elements, alcohol use, physical abuse, perverted name calling.
Juliette Welsh has one rule: never fall for an actor.
Especially not one who's competing for the same spotlight.
So when she lands the role of Mulan in a high-stakes Broadway revival, the last person she expects to be cast opposite her is Xavier Li-the arrogant, annoyingly perfect heartthrob with a smirk that spells trouble.
Xavier is talented, driven, and infuriatingly good at getting under Juliette's skin. Their chemistry crackles on stage, but off stage? It's all biting insults and lingering looks that feel far too dangerous.
Juliette's already juggling a demanding director, the pressure of her biggest role yet, and a toxic boyfriend who refuses to let go of control. The last thing she needs is to be distracted by the one person who challenges her in every way.
But as rehearsals heat up, so does the tension between her and Xavier-until one kiss threatens to shatter the fragile line between love and hate.
She was never supposed to want him.
He was never supposed to care.
But the spotlight doesn't lie.
And neither do the sparks.
