When it comes to love, rules are meant to be broken. Leah Wesley has one she doesn’t date her co-stars. It doesn’t matter if that co-star is Nate Sanders, the funny, charismatic man with tousled hair and the rare ability to disarm anyone with his effortless charm. When Leah moved to Los Angeles with a theater degree in hand and a beat-up sedan full of dreams, she was confident—maybe a little delusional—that it was only a matter of time before she achieved the stardom she believed she was destined for. But before she knew it, she found herself stuck in a constant loop of minor background roles and extra gigs, living the life of a struggling artist while waitressing to support said struggle. It took her six years to land a major role as one of the main characters in a much-anticipated new TV show. A role that would make all the struggle worth it. And she’s not about to squander this opportunity for a man, even if that man is Nate, her co-star turned close friend. Nate has always known that Leah is more than just a friend to him. However, her unwavering rule makes him suppress his feelings and settle into the friend zone she’s clearly marked for them. The last thing he wants is to make her uncomfortable at work by confessing how he feels or asking her out. After all, he is nothing if not a respectful gentleman. As their chemistry on the show causes fans to fall in love with them, they watch each other go through relationships and support one another through everything life brings—just like good friends do. Until the kiss that changes everything. The kiss that forces them to face everything they’ve been denying.
