The Understudy

Description
Josh Harper. The Twelfth Sexiest Man in the World. And Stephen C. McQueen's tormentor.
Stephen is Josh's understudy in a biographical play about Lord Byron, a role that could be the break he's always waited for. But Josh, infuriatingly talented and frustratingly healthy, always shows up for his call, no matter his late-night excesses. Stephen's stalled career, failed marriage, and distant daughter all seem to pale in comparison to this rival. Then Stephen meets Nora, Josh's witty and restless wife, and finds himself liking her a little too much.
Caught between his feelings for Nora, the demands of a secretive Josh, and his lifelong desire for a real career, Stephen must make a terrible decision: the girl, or the fame?
