Next Steps: Finish Rough Draft

Blurb: Once the darlings of a beloved family sitcom, Amy Laporte and Liam McAllister have spent their adult careers struggling to make a name for themselves. 

Free of her parent’s micromanagement, Amy walked away from Hollywood and completely and crashed and burned in the process. When she gets the opportunity to be a guest at a fan convention, she thinks of her debt and nothing else.

Liam’s been in fifteen movies since the show wrapped up, but he’s been the same character in essentially all of them. Terrified that he’s been type-cast, he heads to the convention to network with his former co-stars.

As Amy and Liam reunite, they realize they need to be relevant to get cast again. They hatch a plan: fake a high-profile romance and ride the wave of nostalgia straight back into the spotlight.

The rules are simple—public appearances, a few strategically timed “candid” moments, and absolutely no real feelings. But as they navigate red carpets, talk show interviews, and late-night rehearsals for their biggest roles in years, their carefully scripted love story starts feeling dangerously real.

Faking a relationship was supposed to be easy. Falling for each other? That was never in the script.
