Candace is a brilliant writer who's mastered the art of soap opera drama—intense passion, heartbreaking betrayal, and happily-ever-afters she can only dream of. Her secret? She pours all her unrequited feelings for the show's charming lead actor, Wes, into her storylines. But her world is turned upside down when Wes decides to quit the show to pursue his true passion: serious theater acting. Heartbroken, Candace writes a grand, final storyline for Wes's character—a dramatic love confession that's a secret message just for him. Just as she's ready to move on with her own life and a new job opportunity, the show's producers call Wes back with an offer he can't refuse. Now, with a new storyline waiting, Candace has a choice: keep her feelings hidden, or risk everything by finally putting her real heart on the page. As Wes reads the script and the confession within, he's forced to confront his own conflicted feelings. Is the career he's always dreamed of worth leaving behind the only person he's ever truly connected with? A witty and heartwarming romantic comedy about second chances, the stories we tell ourselves, and the courage to write your own happy ending.
