After devouring this book in two days, I think it’s safe to say that I am absolutely obsessed with the chemistry in Emmy and Grayson’s enemies-to-lovers movie showmance. With twists and turns and lots of spice, this book kept me guessing until the very end.
Screenwriter Emmy Harper is a female main character I was rooting for even though she’s a nepo-baby. I loved following her on her second take at acting in a rom-com opposite from himbo MMC Grayson West. From the moment she bumped into him on set, I was hooked on their back-and-forth banter, desperate for them to finally cut through the crazy tension between them.
Having lived in Hollywood myself, this book really made me miss the gossip and drama of the entertainment industry and perfectly captured the energy of California. At the same time, the filming of the movie was removed from the action in a cosy, snow-covered town outside of Los Angeles that served as an interesting juxtaposition to the craziness of the lives of the actors.
This was such a fun book to read and I will definitely pick up anything else Falon Ballard puts out. There was just so much vitality in the narration and the vivid imagery really helped me feel like I was on set with Grayson and Emmy.
Five out of five stars.
