When the script for the Starfield sequel leaks, with all signs pointing to Jess, she and Imogen must trade places to find the person responsible.

From the darker side of fandom to unexpected crushes, Imogen and Jess must find a way to rescue themselves from their own expectations . . . and redefine what it means to live happily ever after.
