I’m Mikki Lockridge—comedian, tequila enthusiast, and reigning queen of “I’m totally over him.” Or so I thought… until my so-hot-it-hurts ex waltzes back into our Chicago improv theater, triggering my fight-or-flirt response. Alistair freaking Ward. The one who got away—literally, to fame and late-night comedy glory in New York. Now he’s back? On my stage? Oh no, honey. This isn’t just improv, it’s war. He says he’s here for laughs, but he’s hiding something. Feels more like a plot to steal my thunder, and maybe my heart (again). Good thing my comebacks are sharper than stilettos. The problem is that Allistair knows exactly how to push my buttons—in and out of the spotlight and… my heart’s got worse instincts than my drunk text history. A spicy, hilarious, one-night-only second-chance romance with backstage hookups, unresolved heartbreak, and tension hot enough to scorch the stage.
