Evan Howell should have had his life figured out by now. Solid job as an engineer? Check. Decent paycheque? Check. A consistent gym routine? Also check. And yet, at the age of 25, he’s still single, dateless, and kissless, stuck in an endless loop of awkward dates and late-night gaming. One day comes an unexpected invitation from his longtime Reddit gaming friend, Álvaro Cruz—a smooth-talking Spaniard who insists that Evan needs a break in Barcelona. But there’s just one catch. Turns out Álvaro isn’t just some charismatic gamer—he’s a rising star in the European adult film industry, running one of the most successful, ethically driven studios in the business: Fénix Roja Studios. And as fate would have it, Álvaro just so happens to need an extra actor for an upcoming shoot. Wait. Hold on. Did he just say actor?! Thrown headfirst into a world of high-production adult entertainment, industry secrets, and the art of seduction, Evan quickly realises that being in porn is more than just standing around looking good. Performance, confidence, and endurance—he’s got a long way to go before he can even think about keeping up. Can a socially awkward British engineer really transform into an on-screen sensation? Between industry fame, fierce competition, and the unexpected challenges that come with the job, Evan will have to decide: chase the spotlight, or stay true to himself in a world that thrives on glamour and illusion?
