Flint and Steel (Johnny Storm - First Steps)

In 1960s New York, Val is one of the few female directors in the business, finally getting her shot at a feature film. There's just one problem: her leading man is Johnny Storm, and she's falling for him.

When a simple book recommendation during a commercial shoot leads to Johnny starring in her Ray Bradbury adaptation, Val thinks she's found the perfect collaborator. He's smart, dedicated, and surprisingly deep beneath the celebrity veneer. But as production continues and the media attention intensifies, Val faces an impossible choice: pursue the career she's fought for, or risk everything for a guy who could burn her dreams to the ground.

A dinner invitation to meet his family might just force her hand.

Set against the backdrop of atomic-age optimism and mid-century modern magic, this is a story about ambition, romance - and the courage to reach for both.
