Nasrin Mahdavi is an Iranian-American college freshman who''s a triple threat on Broadwaybut she''s living a double life.Its her first semester majoring in musical theater at NYUs prestigious Tisch School of the Arts, and Nasrin spends her days prepping for auditions, sweating through dance classes, and belting her heart out for the viral streaming show shes been cast in. But on calls with her maman and baba, shes the golden child who put her theater dreams aside to follow in their entrepreneurial footsteps as a business major. At least her whole life isnt a lieshe is taking a single business course. Except shes kind of failing it. Nasrin needs to bring her grade up fast if shes going to keep her parents in the dark, so she grudgingly signs up for tutoring with the infuriatingly smug and annoyingly attractive Max. And yet . . . as the semester rushes by, the sparks of anger that first flew between them start to turn into a very different kind of spark. The kind she definitely does not have time for.Except when Nasrins charmingly devious cousin takes an interest in Max too, Nasrin has to figure out exactly what has been an act, and whats for real. Can Nasrin decide whatand whois truly worth fighting for, and find a way to step into the spotlight as her full self?
