Itâs easy not to fall in love, right?
Melody McIntyre, stage manager extraordinaire, has a plan for everything. What she doesnât have? Success with love. Every time she falls for someone during a school performance, both the romance and the show end in catastrophe. So, Mel swears off love until their upcoming production of Les Mis is over.
Of course, Mel didnât count on Odile Rose, rising star in the acting world, auditioning for the spring performance. And she definitely didnât expect Odile to be sweet, and funny and care as much about the playâs success as Mel. Which means that Melody McIntyreâs only plan now is trying desperately not to fall in love.
