1947 - Rey Johnson leaves Shelbyville, Iowa to follow her dream of breaking into movies in Hollywood. She is referred to a famous agent for First Order Studios, and soon finds herself preparing for a screen test
with the "King of Hollywood", Kylo Ren.
Increasingly bitter about being typecast in swashbuckler films, Kylo is disillusioned and angry...and is becoming a huge liability for the studio, with his boozy benders and temperamental behaviour on set.
Kylo sees something in the young ingenue that makes him warn her and protect her from the studio system, despite her misgivings about him.
I love this story, with its historical insights into the Golden Age of Hollywood and the sweet unfolding romance between an ingenue and a talented but volatile movie star.

Today at RFR, had the pleasure of playing 20 Questions with the talented writer, EliseCY (@enelsonauthor), writer of bit.ly/Shadows-and-Su…. Check it out!
It’s been 4 years and I am still reading Reylo. I keep thinking, I’ll stop! Then Adam Driver does something super sexy, like act, or just breathe and someone brilliant writes an amazing Reylo fic, and am right back to it. “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.”
I am enormously grateful for every single Reylo writer out there, sharing your work, talents and creativity with us. Our fandom has attracted incredible writers. In 2021, the former Ever-So-Reylo landed on the NYT Bestseller list with what was formerly a beloved Reylo fic.
I have no doubt there will be others to publish professionally in 2022. We are so lucky with the talent we are blessed in this fandom. Without further ado, welcome to my fourth annual Reylo fic favourites list.
Had the pleasure of getting to know Reylo writer @Perry_Downing for Book Club. She's a lovely person, kind and witty to boot. Thank you so much Perry! 💜
Played #20Questions with writer @irridesca for RFR's Book Club. Taylor is at once a gifted writer and she's gorgeous too. Thank you so much, Tee Dubbs 💜 (thread)
