Fan favorite author Kasie West delivers an effervescent story about chasing your dreams and following your heart, perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Huntley Fitzpatrick.

Lacey Barnes has dreamed of being an actress for as long as she can remember. So when she gets the opportunity to star in a movie alongside one of Hollywood’s hottest actors, she doesn’t hesitate to accept the part.

But Lacey quickly learns that life in the spotlight isn’t as picture perfect as she imagined. She’s having trouble bonding with her costars, her father has hired the definition of a choir boy, Donavan Lake, to tutor her, and somewhere along the way she’s lost her acting mojo. And just when it seems like things couldn’t get any worse, it looks like someone on set is deliberately trying to sabotage her.

As Lacey’s world spins out of control, it feels like the only person she can count on—whether it’s helping her try to unravel the mystery of who is out to get her or snap her out of her acting funk—is Donavan. But what she doesn’t count on is this straight-laced boy becoming another distraction.

With her entire future riding on this movie, Lacey knows she can’t afford to get sidetracked by a crush. But for the first time in her life Lacey wonders if it’s true that the best stories really do happen when you go off script.

She’s supposed to be focused on her lines, not the boy hired to help her learn them. What happens when your biggest distraction becomes your only hope?

• A Sweet Teen Romance: Lacey is determined to stay professional, but her charmingly serious tutor Donavan Lake keeps making her forget her lines... and her personal rule about not dating.
• Hollywood Movie Set: Step behind the camera into the world of movie-making, where the drama is just as real off-screen as it is on-screen.
• A Touch of Mystery: As things on set go from bad to worse, Lacey and Donavan have to figure out who is trying to ruin her career before it’s too late.
• An Unforgettable First Kiss: A swoon-worthy story about discovering that the most romantic moments are the ones that are never in the script.
