Bad first impressions

On stage, they're a passionate couple, but in real life, they can't stand each other. Will their chemistry remain just a script?

Luiza Bento will do whatever she can to remain in the United States, except accept what everyone seems to consider the easiest solution to getting a green card: marriage.

She's determined to find a job that will make it possible for her to stay in the country, but getting an acting job as a Latina and plus-size is already difficult enough. One that will even sponsor her visa? Almost impossible.

After months of working at the entrance of Movieland, a major theme park in Los Angeles, Luiza finally got the opportunity she needed: an audition for the theater department. The only problem? She has to act opposite Winter Davis, an arrogant snob who seems to think his child star past makes him superior to everyone else.

On stage, they're a passionate couple, but in real life, they can't stand each other. Will their chemistry remain just a script?

And it thrills you because it's original enough to be appreciated in a unique way, perfectly transforming what was classic into something contemporary. Gabriela Graciosa Guedes's writing pace is impeccable, the chemistry between the protagonists is explosive, the setting is almost palpable: the author meticulously crafts the details while moving, entertaining, and warming our hearts." - Vanessa Reis, author of Intersection
