Set in the fictional Catalonian city of Vallemar, where sunlight and sea meet ambition and heartbreak, Crazy Normal is a heartfelt contemporary romance about fear, healing, and the unexpected ways people collide when they stop running from what scares them most. Lorelai García never meant to end up in front of a camera—least of all holding a football. The ball alone is enough to make her flinch; it carries too many memories she’s tried to bury. But when her best friend ropes her into a music video shoot for Deportivo Fénix, Vallemar’s rising football club, Lorelai finds herself face to face with her worst fear—and with Mateo Silva Costa, the charming young star whose steady calm stands in perfect contrast to her chaos. What begins as a simple shoot on the beach turns into something she can’t quite explain. Mateo isn’t what she expected: he’s grounded, kind, and just as lost beneath the spotlight as she is in its shadow. Their connection is quiet but electric—a slow, reluctant unfolding neither of them planned for. Yet when the video goes viral and her image suddenly floods the internet, Lorelai is forced into a world she never asked to be part of—one that threatens the fragile sense of safety she’s rebuilt. As Mateo’s season with Fénix heats up and Lorelai’s old fears resurface, both must decide whether they’re willing to fight for something real — or let the noise of fame, fear, and circumstance drown it out. Crazy Normal is a story about what happens when vulnerability meets courage — and how sometimes, the most extraordinary thing is learning to live a life that finally feels… normal.
