Synopsis:
Leo Macías is a writer of cheap romance novels, unhappy with her real love life. Her husband works for the military and spends more time in peace-keeping missions around the world than in his own home, even though his wife is eager to see him. Things get even worse when Leo’s editor, who also has feelings for her, asks her to write a critique of the author Amanda Gris. However, that is Leo’s pseudonym.
