Text reading "An Editor's guide to Phoebe and Nolan Make a Scene by Kyra Nelson. Rep: Nicole Eisenbraun and Ginger Clark of GCL"
A girl with long brown hair cups the face of a red-headed boy as they gaze into each other's eyes. Surrounding text: "Rehearsal" kisses cinnamon roll boy socially awkward heartthrob love letter to fandoms co-stars playing onscreen LIs Asexual rep former tween star paparassi drama cute cats
Text reading For Fans Of with book covers for Flip the Script by Lyla Lee Kiss and Tell by Adib Khorram Geekerella by Ashley Poston Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee and You Had Me at Hola by Alexis Daria
Phoebe’s acting career has stalled since the completion of her hit tween series and her public breakup with her co-star. When she’s offered the lead role on a high-budget superhero miniseries, she sees a chance to revive her career. Even if the showrunner is pushy, sexist, and determined to straight-wash her canonically asexual character. One thing she’s not going to do? Fall for her new co-star. Nolan may be an on-screen darling, but can barely carry a conversation off-script. Until he meets Phoebe, who couldn’t care less about his stardom or awkwardness. For the first time, Nolan feels like he can be himself, only to realize he doesn’t even know who he is behind the superstar persona. He’s spent his whole life trying to please others, particularly his controlling mother, at the expense of figuring out his own life. As Phoebe and Nolan’s off-screen chemistry becomes as undeniable as their on-screen chemistry, their delicately balanced lives collide, and they’ll need to learn to write their own happily ever afters.
An #EditorGuide for PHOEBE AND NOLAN MAKE A SCENE
A starlet trying to save her floundering acting career and a socially awkward teen heartthrob, cast as love interests, must fight the straightwashing of a canonically ace character, and their feelings for eachother.

With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after. The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden.
