Cleo has spent three seasons as the understudy who never goes on. Marcus is the difficult, brilliant lead everyone tolerates and no one likes — least of all Cleo, who has memorized every one of his flaws along with his lines. When an injury forces her into the spotlight at last, the two are thrown together night after night, and the role of a lifetime turns out to be the one neither of them rehearsed. A theatrical enemies-to-lovers romance about waiting in the wings, taking your shot, and the terrifying business of being truly seen.
