Cut to Us

Twelve weeks. One film. One line they can’t cross.

Imogen Hart has spent years shaping other people’s stories—cutting chaos into meaning, finding truth in fragments. Now she finally has her shot: lead editor on a bold new documentary set across London’s night bus routes.


It’s everything she’s worked for.

Everything she believes in.

And it comes with rules.


Tariq Malik understands systems—data, patterns, and the quiet architecture beneath the surface of things. He sees what others miss. Including her.


Working side by side, building something honest and unflinching, the line between professional and personal begins to blur. Slowly. Carefully. Inevitably.


Because some stories aren’t told all at once.

Some are built moment by moment—cut by cut.


And some lines aren’t meant to be crossed… until they are.


Cut to Us is a cinematic slow-burn contemporary romance about creative ambition, restraint, found family, and the quiet, powerful ways people choose each other.


Perfect for readers who love:

Slow-burn tension and mutual pining

Roommates-to-lovers romance

Creative workplace stories

Found family warmth

Emotional intimacy over instant passion
