Playing a lead role in a book-to-movie adaptation with a wild fan base? Sign me up! The only downside is that I’m cast alongside Jacoby “Heartthrob” Hart—Hollywood’s golden boy. If only they knew he was an uppity, pompous snob.
We don’t get along, and if you’re reading the tabloids, you’d assume it was because I “stole” his girlfriend, but they have it all wrong. Jacoby and his cold shoulder started this, and now we’re set to play lovers. The only thing I’d love to do is strangle him, but I’m a professional.
Behind the scenes, we’re either bickering or avoiding each other, but when the cameras start rolling, I can’t believe how much chemistry we have.
One night, during a passionate argument, something happens that I never anticipated. The chemistry that started out as an act turns into much more behind closed doors, but we both have secrets, and Hollywood is a hard place to keep those.
Lights, Camera, Passion is an enemies-to-lovers story between two supposedly straight actors who don't get along but are cast to play lovers in a book-to-movie adaptation. Expect bickering, banter, tension, chemistry, and a couple of revelations straining to burst free from the closet.

Jacoby is not a moanable name. Roman is one of God's strongest soldiers. Also, probably why he kept calling out to God and not, you know, Jacoby.
This book is so idyllic, and ordinarily I'd hate the hell out of it. But you know what? I love when the big bad doesn't come knocking. We can have a little idealism. As a treat.
There was a moment where I thought I'd have to tag this with my dreaded MCs I'd never forgive. Really glad to have been wrong.
“I’ve been trying to play it cool, afraid I was feeling things you weren’t, but my god, all I want is to be with you. Every minute of the day is littered with thoughts of you and hopes for us.”
Sorry, but I'd fold embarrassingly quickly.
I loved so much about these two.
Including the fact that they were into each other before they met.
Including the fact that the reason Jacoby was a being a dick to Roman wasn't spun as something that had been a misunderstanding.
Including the fact that they made a conscious effort to communicate. Especially given their past. I loved that they talked about stuff, even when it could be embarrassing.
Including the fact that Roman was willing to show his cards, emotionally, again and again, until Jacoby opened up.
Including the fact that Jacoby was so deathly scared but when he committed? Yeah. No half measures for my man.
I loved everything about this. It was the right amount of snark, but cute and funny and sweet and ugh!
