Off the Record

Every theatre critic knows the rule. Never get too close.
Connor Irons has built his reputation on that rule. A sharp-eyed reviewer whose words can make or break a West End performance. But when rising star Aiden Wolff takes the stage, Connor's carefully drawn boundaries shatter.

From the stalls he sees more than talent. He sees a spark, a magnetism that drags him past the safety of observation into something dangerously personal. Aiden isn't just another actor. He is the man Connor hasn't been able to forget since a fleeting encounter a year earlier. When their eyes lock across the curtain call, the chemistry is undeniable. Impossible to resist.

What begins at the stage door spirals into something far riskier. A secret connection that blurs the line between critic and subject, honesty and desire. In Aiden's flat, Connor discovers intimacy he thought he had lost forever. But reputations are fragile and secrets never stay buried. Every off-the-record moment comes at a price.

Off the Record is a bold, intoxicating romance set against the charged backdrop of the West End. A story of forbidden attraction, power and vulnerability, and the dangerous thrill of breaking the rules for the one person worth the risk.

If you crave theatre-set drama, slow-burn intensity that catches fire, and characters willing to gamble everything for connection, you'll be captivated by Off the Record.
