Marisol Acts the Part

Description

A teen actress lands a role on the same high-profile show as her ex-boyfriend–only for things to get messy when she falls for his cute scene partner–in a dazzling sapphic rom-com from the author of Caught in a Bad Fauxmance.

“A swoony celebrity romance sure to steal your heart.” –Jennifer Dugan, author of Some Girls Do

Actress Marisol Polly-Rodriguez might be entering her flop era. After wrapping up a hit show, she’s neither booked nor busy. Not to mention, her former costar turned boyfriend, Miles, recently dumped her for being an “unserious” performer. Can you imagine?

To prove to Miles–and online trolls–that she takes her craft very seriously, Marisol lands a role on the same upcoming drama series he does. But with the eccentric director constantly rewriting her lines and a snobby castmate trying to upstage her, Marisol quickly realizes that her hope of nabbing an award nomination might be a pipe dream.

The only person she doesn’t have to put on a performance for is the show’s leading lady, Jamila. Marisol hasn’t been able to look away from her since their first audition. Falling for Jamila wasn’t part of Marisol’s plan, but even the most dedicated actors go off script sometimes, right?
