As their worlds collide and unravel, love becomes the anchor through dreams, grief, and everything in between. "Try Me" is a powerful story of passion, resilience, and the kind of love that doesn't ask for the easy road-only the real one. Try Me, takes place in the late 1970s to early 1980s, specifically between 1976 and 1985. This era captures a vibrant and transformative time in both music and fashion, with Michael Jackson on the brink of global superstardom and Beaudee coming into her own as a creative and emotionally strong woman. This is a work of fiction inspired by the music, cultural climate, and emotional energy of the late 1970s and early 1980s. While real events and people are woven throughout the story, many elements have been fictionalized to serve the narrative. This book is a love letter to artistic growth, young love, and timeless connection. ⚠️ Content Warning This story contains mature themes, including emotionally intimate and sensual love scenes intended for adult readers.

For many starstruck fans, Fawn Carangi is a Goddess dwelling among mortals, a fashion icon, and a sexually liberated woman. The provocative pop diva holds the world in one hand, and a microphone in the other. Nevertheless, what lies beneath Fawn's larger than life persona is a sense of unfulfillment. With everything she could ever want at her disposal - - drugs, men, women, and money, Fawn longs for the one thing her success can't give her. Unable to fill the void, Fawn loses herself in drunken hookups and drug fueled clubbing. That is until she meets pop superstar Michael Jackson. Like night and day, yin and yang, sugar and spice, Fawn and Michael couldn't be more different. However, it is their mutual yearning for real love that brings them together.

❝𝗖𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻' 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝗲, 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻' 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝗲❞ A regular at The Paper Coven Bookstore, Michael's your (not-so) average, resident genius and Cosmos enthusiast who works with actual rockets yet still panics when his mom calls. Noelle is Boston's most charmingly unqualified manager for said-bookstore, running off of nothing but caffeinated teas, several Uggs in rotation and vibes (social media). They only ever talk about books... until Michael tells his visiting parents he's engaged (he's not) and Noelle offers to keep up the charade... Suddenly, you've got fake engagement rings, offbeat family dinners, and a cat named Rune silently judging from a sill somewhere. It's hilariously awkward. It's adorable. It's the ultimate lie, actually.

Be his friend. Bear his child. Don't fall in love. That would be weird. Reeling from the wreckage of divorce, 38-year-old Michael Jackson clings to the last thread of a lifelong dream: becoming a father. With Neverland emptied of laughter and trust, he turns to the only person who's never left- his best friend. His quiet constant. And he asks her the impossible. What begins as a promise to carry his child becomes something deeper: carrying his heart, his secrets, and his survival itself. ___ WARNING: Grief, death, traumatic events, implied sex (not graphic.) #1 in #michaeljackson [8.16.25] #1 in #michaeljackson [10.28.25] #1 in #michaeljackson [11.10.25] #1 in #mj [8.10.25] #1 in #90s [11.17.25] PHOTO CREDITS TO @mj90sera_ on INSTAGRAM
