Carlie Thompson never planned to fall in love on tour.
Fresh out of dance college, landing a backup dancer job for One Direction feels unreal. The stages are bigger. The crowds are louder. The pressure is heavier. But Carlie keeps her head down, focused on her dream.
Until Niall Horan.
Sweet, funny, and hiding more weight on his shoulders than the world knows, Niall feels drawn to the shy brunette from the moment their eyes meet backstage. Their connection is instant - the kind you can't ignore no matter how hard you try.
But rules, fame, and fear stand in the way.
From stolen glances during rehearsals to late-night talks on tour buses, their bond grows quietly... dangerously... beautifully.
Because in a world where everything is public,
their love starts in secret.
Book One of the Backstage Hearts series follows the beginning of a love story that will change both their lives forever.
