Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo land the roles that could change everything when they're cast in Andy Warhol Never Gets Old, a biopic everyone in Hollywood is talking about. On set, they discover they have chemistry that extends beyond their scenes together. As the film generates buzz, their careers take off in ways they never imagined. But sudden fame brings complications neither actor anticipated. The spotlight that promised to fulfill their dreams also threatens to destroy what matters most to them. Green tells their story from both perspectives, following them from the first day of shooting through the film's premiere. The novel weaves their romance with the story they're telling on screen about Warhol's rise during the birth of modern celebrity culture. Kai and Juniper must figure out how to protect their relationship and their authentic selves while living under constant public scrutiny.
