Tash was literally over the moon when the screen rights to her surprise-hit feminist novel got snapped up by an indie film studio. Main character moment, right? But nobody warned her about the utter disaster that is Hollywood development hell. Somehow, her smart, literary masterpiece ended up in the hands of a massive action-movie director who is way more famous for his toxic masculinity and explosions than actual artistry.
And now? This bro director is demanding "the dirty version" of her story, asking Tash to take her strong, complex female warriors and basically reduce them to male-gaze eye candy. Absolutely not.
When Tash tries to stall, the studio steps in and pairs her with their golden-boy intimacy coordinator, Caleb, to help "add some spice" to the script. Tash instantly hates everything about him. He’s ridiculously handsome, which automatically makes him untrustworthy, and she’s convinced he’s just another studio puppet sent to ruin her life’s work.
...Except the more they collaborate, the more she realizes Caleb actually gets it. He has a crazy-deep understanding of emotional vulnerability (and, fine, physical intimacy too). Soon enough, they’re not just burning through pages—they’re burning up the bedsheets, completely blurring the line between their script's romance and their own reality.
But just when Tash thinks she’s finally got everything under control, the whole project goes completely off the rails. Can she rewrite the narrative to save her show and her love story, or is this whole thing about to be cancelled?
