Out of Frame: A heartfelt BBW contemporary love story between a guarded filmmaker and the war photographer who refuses to look away
Lydia Morales has spent her career behind the camera, crafting stories about other people's courage while keeping her own heart out of focus. But when she's assigned to profile Gabe Voss-a war photojournalist turned reluctant celebrity-her careful invisibility begins to fracture.
Gabe has made peace with being photographed but not with being known. The last thing he wants is another puff piece about his scars and survival. Yet something about Lydia's quiet precision, her refusal to flinch, unsettles him in ways that feel dangerously close to hope.
What begins as an uneasy collaboration turns into a layered, slow-burning intimacy neither can quite frame. Their project takes them across cities and borderlines, forcing them to confront what they've both edited out of their lives: the fear of exposure, the ache of connection, and the question of whether being seen can ever be safe.
Through chaos and quiet, through laughter and late-night edits, Lydia discovers that love-like truth-can't be curated. And when the final cut rolls, she must decide whether to keep hiding behind the lens or step into her own frame for good.
Out of Frame is an emotionally resonant, body-positive romance that celebrates vulnerability, second chances, and the courage it takes to claim your story. With humor, longing, and heart-stopping tenderness, it explores what happens when two people learn to look at each other-and themselves-with clarity.
Perfect for readers who crave character-driven contemporary romance with emotional depth, sharp banter, and an authentic plus-size heroine who owns every inch of her power.
