Right on Cue

Right on Cue
by Falon Ballard, 336 pages

The daughter of two Hollywood acting legends, screenwriter Emmy Harper is the ultimate nepo baby, though she hasn't acted since her disastrous debut at the age of 15. But when she and her co-producers can't find a leading lady for her new romantic comedy, Emmy reluctantly steps back into the spotlight. Unfortunately, her leading man is none other than Grayson West, the action hero heartthrob who broke her heart on set when they were both teenagers. Will they be able to put aside their rocky past and at least act like they like each other for the cameras?

Since this is a romance novel, you know the answer to that question. The enemies-to-lovers trope is one of my favorites in the genre, and this one definitely does that well. However, more than once this book falls victim to the "if you would only talk for five minutes, all problems would be avoided" pitfall, which happens way too often in romance novels. But it was a light, quick read, and certainly spicy, so if that's what you're looking for, this is the book for you.
