Hollywood/celebrity meets small town romance, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, this book has so many fun tropes that make it a quick, enjoyable read. For me, the third act breakup felt totally unnecessary and took me out of it a bit, but it was still fun.

Just wasn’t connecting with the story or characters. Might come back to it eventually.

It was a cute romance book. I liked the setting. The story takes place mostly on a movie set, with the main character Emmy being a screenwriter and actress and the love interest Grayson also being an actor. It's a refreshing setting, something out of the ordinary. The glimpses of how a movie is made and what's going on on set were cool - although in my opinion not very realistic, but for a fictional romance that's not so important I guess. The story follows the typical romance block. Emmy and Grayson start as enemies, who have a history together after their first ever movie tanked, but quickly work through this and become totally in love. After everything seemed too good to be true there is the third act conflict/breakup followed by the making up and happy ending. I would have loved a little more of their happy ending and especially how it went after they got back together at spoiler their movie premiere .
