Bursting with second chance swoons and chemistry that refuses to stay off stage.
Elle Serra has been trapped for years as an assistant director but finally gets her shot: three weeks to workshop a script with an up-and-coming playwright. If she nails it, she will direct the full production at Chicago Repertory Theater. Otherwise, she’ll be stuck in a supporting role for another season.
The hitch? The playwright is her former beau, Bret Stark, and his script is inspired by his leap from college football player to drama jock. His gray eyes still smolder, his abs are still rock hard, and his raunchy brand of comedy has her praying to the theater gods.
Bret expected a bro to direct, not the woman who calls her bra and panties dainties. Still, she is “his girl who got away,” and he’d love to tangle sheets with her again.
With sparks flying on and off stage, Bret has refuse-to-lose focus on making the play a hit and winning back Elle, but it will take more than a bottle of vino and a well-timed wink to win her heart. As their stars rise, they must choose between the careers they’ve fought for and a love that just may deserve a second act.
A humorous, heartwarming second-chance romance with irresistible chemistry, vivid theater world charm, and sprinkled with spicy fun.
