Summary
If you could have anything in the world, anything at all, what would it be?
Alexander Claremont-Diaz has clawed his way into Hollywood despite all the hurdles in his way, and now he's starring in his dream movie—a queer romcom adapted from one of his favorite books, Roses, Wisteria, and Royal Bluebells. However, he barely has the chance to be excited before he finds out who his costar is. The privileged, white, bigoted Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor.
The last thing Alex wants is to be associated with Henry more than he already has to, but a fateful interview and a few choice words against Henry turns him into enemy number one in Hollywood. To fix it, he has to pretend to be Henry's best friend and show the entire world his comments were nothing but friendly banter. However, as he gets inevitably tangled up in Henry's life, he realizes not everything is as it seems, and Henry might be hiding his own demons that might change everything.

Summary
His eyes travel down; he can make out the silhouette of Alex’s body, back turned to him and flushed against his chest, hair spread all over his pillow as he sleeps peacefully. Henry has an arm around his waist, their joint hands pressed together over Alex’s heart, his chest falling and rising rhythmically with each breath he takes.
Even if Henry can’t see his face right now, it doesn’t take much to imagine it – closed eyes and long lashes, slightly parted lips and smooth skin, not a hint of tension or playfulness in his features. There’s only peace, and calm, like all the other nights Henry spent memorizing Alex’s sleeping face.
He’s beautiful. Henry is so in love it physically pains him.

Summary
The coffee pot almost slips from Henry’s hands; he manages to catch it at the last second, but it’s a small feat compared to the ringing in his ears.
He turns, more confused than he’s ever been in his life, and looks at Alex, properly taking him in for the first time that day. Wild curls, like he didn’t even bother with them when he woke up; knuckles white where he’s gripping his phone, like his hand would shake if he loosened his hold; eyes fierce and red-rimmed, tears clinging to his lashes.
He looks angry. More than that, he looks downright furious.
