You Had Me at Hola

Jasmine Lin Rodriguez has just landed the lead in a splashy bilingual remake of a beloved telenovela — a career-making role, and a fresh start after a very public breakup she would rather forget. She has a plan: keep her head down, nail the part, and prove she belongs. Falling for her co-star is emphatically not on the list.

But Ashton Suárez, the brooding, intensely private telenovela veteran playing her on-screen love interest, has a way of getting under her skin — on camera and off. As the cameras roll and their scripted romance heats up, the line between performance and real feeling grows harder to hold, and both of them carry reasons, and secrets, that make falling in love a genuine risk.

The first book in Alexis Daria's Primas of Power series, You Had Me at Hola is a warm, witty, unabashedly steamy rom-com about family, ambition, and the terrifying vulnerability of the real thing.
