A public romance with private stakes

Luna Aldridge’s damaged reputation and Kieran Alexander’s troubled dating history put both careers under pressure, leading their teams to pair the tennis star and Hollywood actor in a staged relationship. The arrangement sends them through red carpets and the tennis circuit over one summer, where maintaining a convincing public image becomes entangled with the feelings they are meant to keep out of it. The setup brings together familiar contemporary-romance ingredients—celebrity scrutiny, professional stakes, and sworn enemies playing a couple—while keeping the question of where performance ends at the center.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of contemporary romance built around fake dating and an enemies-to-lovers dynamic
