Showmance 17 year old, Cely Francis has spent her entire life chasing the spotlight and coming up just short. Obsessed with theatre, and the trailblazing brilliance of Diahann Carroll; Cely knows she was born for the stage… even if her school’s casting board seems to disagree. Year after year, she’s watched from the wings, applauding everyone else’s moment. Now it’s senior year. Last chance. Final curtain call. When Cely auditions for her school’s mysterious, buzzworthy play, she she never expects to land the role—or for her longtime best friend, Jude Khalil, to be cast as her romantic lead. Suddenly, late-night rehearsals blur into stolen glances, scripted kisses feel a little too real, and the line between friendship and fiction begins to disappear. But when the curtain rises, will Cely and Jude be able to tell what’s acting… and what’s love?
