Beyond the Bright Lights

LANA

It's been 18 years since I lost my fiancé, and I'm struggling to move on. I grieved him when he died, then grieved him again when his sister wrote a book about his inspiring life a few years later. Now that book is becoming a movie, and I'm about to grieve him for a third time.

To make matters worse, the actor cast to portray the love of my life on the big screen just walked into my bar, begging me to help him with the role.

"Help me become Tyler Taylor."

He's younger than me and infuriating, but I agree to help him. I have to. For Tyler.

I can't let Mylan Andrews mess this up because he's battling his demons, and I’m worried he can’t win.
