About this audiobook
They said it was just a callback. They didn't tell me the lock worked from the outside. Welcome to the Thorne-Sterling production house, where the obsession begins.
I am nineteen years old, newly arrived in Hollywood and already exhausted by the rigid performance of survival. When I step through the heavy soundproof door for a private callback, the thick, tangible silence severs me from the outside world. Under the blinding, unforgiving studio lights, the foundation of my careful control finally shatters.
Waiting for me are the twin pillars of the industry: Julian Thorne, an immovable wall of absolute authority, and Sebastian Sterling, the fluid eye of intense observation. They don't want a standard actress to merely memorize lines—they demand a true muse willing to sign a permanent commitment. As the blurry lines between an official contract and total devotion begin to unravel, my reality shrinks entirely to their perimeter.
