For Ali, landing an Emmy for her soap opera role has been a longtime dream, and this year, it feels within reach. That is, until Luke Carter walks onto set - the ex who broke her heart ten years ago. Now, she has to act like she's falling for him all over again--on screen When Luke acts blameless, Ali's frustration and inability to ignore how endearing he is leads to embarrassing blunders. How can she possibly maintain her carefully constructed walls when the lines between their scripted romance and the undeniable sparks igniting between are becoming blurred?

Luke is excited about starting his new career, but it's hard to work alongside Ali, the only woman he ever loved, the woman who ghosted him for no reason. When the director orders them to practice their lines outside of work, Luke does his best to remain professional, but the past they both thought happened is not all it seems as the truth is revealed through fumbling lines, both on and off camera
