❝ loving you feels so right ❞ 18+

1987. The world belongs to Michael Jackson. Sold-Out stadiums. Flashing cameras. Endless screaming and fainting fans. To everyone else, he's larger than life - untouchable, mysterious, magic in human form. But behind the fame.. behind the sequined jackets and gloves.. Michael is lonely. Desperately lonely. Late at night, when the city finally quiets down, he slips away from the spotlight searching for the one things money and fame cannot buy - a real connection, something authentic. Then he meets Rachel. She isn't dazzled by Mr. Jackson. She does not fall at his feet. In fact, she barely knows what to make of him at all. But for the first time in years, Michael feels seen - not as a global pop star icon, but as just Michael. What begins as a chance encounter under the New York City street lights quickly turns into something deeper: stolen nights, dangerous secrets, and a love neither of them ever expected. But falling for the most famous man in the world comes with a price, and the closer Rachel gets to Michael, the more impossible it becomes to separate fantasy from reality. After Midnight is a slow burning, emotional romance about fame, loneliness, freedom, and what happens when two people find each other in the quiet hours when the rest of the world is asleep.

Some girls are soft sunshine. Madeleine Cross was moonlight. Beautiful in a way that made people stare too long. Untouchable in a way that made people want to try anyway. Behind her sharp tongue, glamorous life, and haunting blue eyes is a girl still trying to survive the kind of childhood that leaves scars no one can see. Hollywood taught her how to become desired. Loneliness taught her how to become dangerous. Then she meets someone who sees through every carefully built wall. And for the first time in her life, Madeleine has to decide whether love is worth the risk of being destroyed by it.

She never expected to be noticed by him. She never stopped wondering what would happen if she had been.

Camille Laurent grew up in a strict traditional family that taught her the world was divided into two kinds of people: black and white, and nothing in between.

Now a famous celebrity makeup artist, Camille lives a life built on control and perfection, still shaped by her parents' expectations. Until she meets Michael Jackson...

Set in the summer of 1980. Angel Victoria "Ava" Lennox is a brilliant but cynical sound engineering major, interning at the top studio company in a little town in California. She had one plan: to graduate with flying colors and dominate the music industry as a female sound engineer. At the back alley of a hotel suite, she collides with 21-year old rising star Michael Jackson, who was in town for an exclusive three-week all expense paid project with his brothers. She didn't recognize him at all, and he is completely (and dangerously) intrigued. Both are fighting for their future: Ava's dreams, internal rigidity, familial rules, and industry struggles; and Michael's untold journey to being eventually: the biggest star in the world. In the fleeting, stolen hours between dusk and dawn, Ava and Michael discover a connection that the world isn't meant to see. What secrets could possibly unfold in one fateful, and starry night?
