Sydney didn't have much, but that was fine with her. She didn't need much. Growing up on the Washington coast in a lonely beach town, working quietly behind the scenes was what she was good at. Living on the beach was much less glamorous than most people imagine. Her home was a beat up old Winnebago that she had shared with her father until he passed. Her father had been a detached parent. He loved his daughter of course, but he was by no means an affectionate man. She had grown up fending for herself, working backstage at a bar that hosted live bands using a fake ID. After the death of her father she saw an ad for a guitar technician for a local Seattle band. A love of rock and roll had been the one thing that her and her dad had in common. Selling everything that she didn't need she packed up her pickup truck and travelled north to the city, leaving the sleepy town in her rear view mirror. She didn't expect to embark on what would become the adventure of a lifetime. For someone who had hardly left the town she grew up in, the opportunity to get paid to travel the country and listen to great music was a dream come true. The band became her family, and life on the road was a perfect fit for her. Chris Cornell instantly became Sydney's best friend in the whole world. They were in love, that was plain as day to anyone who paid attention. Yet, sometimes love isn't as simple as it should be. Sometimes, love hurts.

Seattle, 1988. The rain never really stops-and neither does the music. Alexis has her life mapped out: pass her finals, secure her business degree, and keep her family afloat. No distractions. No detours. Especially not the kind that come with long hair, a dangerous voice, and a habit of stealing purple Sharpies. But when her younger sister starts sneaking out to see a band called Soundgarden, Alexis steps into a world she never planned to touch-dimly lit bars, loud guitars, and a rising scene that feels like it's about to explode. And then there's Chris. Tall. Intense. Infuriatingly confident. A man who looks like trouble and sounds like something she can't get out of her head. What starts as irritation turns into curiosity... then something a lot harder to ignore. As late nights blur into stolen moments and sharp-tongued banter turns into undeniable chemistry, Alexis finds herself caught between two worlds-one built on responsibility, the other on raw, electric possibility. Because in a city on the edge of something big, sometimes the biggest risk... is letting yourself fall right in the middle of it.
