Twenty-three-year-old Sadie Bennett has spent the last five years turning her breakdowns into chart-topping lyrics. As the lead singer of the wildly controversial girlband Crying During Sex, Sadie is famous for three things: saying the wrong thing all the time, writing songs cruel enough to feel true, and looking completely out of control while doing it. The internet calls her a genius. The tabloids call her unstable. Most days, she isn't sure which one is worse. Then one sarcastic comment at an awards show turns into the headline heard around the world. Now Sadie and her band are trapped in a vicious public feud with 5 Seconds of Summer-especially Luke Hemmings, the frustratingly calm frontman who seems to understand fame in all the ways she wishes he didn't. Fans pick sides overnight. Every glance becomes clickbait. Every interview becomes a performance. And when their labels force them into the same orbit for the sake of publicity, the line between hatred and obsession starts to blur. But behind sold-out shows and flashing cameras, Sadie is unraveling quietly. Panic attacks. Sleepless nights. The unbearable pressure of becoming a person the world has already decided she is. And Luke may be the only one who notices. As scandals explode and the industry tightens its grip, Sadie is forced to confront the terrifying question beneath every headline: Who is she when nobody's watching?

❝ inside every one of us a shadow side, i call it my better side.❞ ╰┈➤ ╰┈➤ ╰┈➤ When Pearl embarks on its most ambitious tour yet, lead singer June Evans is hanging on by a thread. She's sick of compliance- the meds, the therapy, the sobriety, the emotional chasm that comes with being okay. What she really craves is an excuse to fall apart. She doesn't expect that excuse to come in the form of the beautifully tragic lead singer of The Neurotics. Luke Hemmings has a secret, though. He's been sickeningly obsessed with June for years before they even met- before a joint tour between Pearl and The Neurotics was even a possibility. But when they find that their broken pieces align perfectly together, the clock to their mutual destruction begins to tick. Is it really worth it to love someone to death?

Grace Ivers isn't the type to seek out frat parties, but when her outgoing roommate drags her to one, she finds herself thrust into the chaos of loud music, red solo cups, and a sea of confident athletes. Navigating the scene as a college freshman is overwhelming enough-until she catches the eye of John Logan. Logan is everything Grace has been warned about-charming, confident, and completely out of her league. But when an unexpected flip cup challenge turns into an undeniable connection, Grace starts to wonder if there's more to him than his reputation suggests. As the night unfolds, friendships are forged, bets are made, and sparks fly between Grace and Logan in a way neither of them expected. She's just a freshman trying to find her place, and he's a hockey star who shouldn't be paying her this much attention. But some moments change everything, and this might just be one of them. A flirty, fast-paced college romance about taking chances, unexpected chemistry, and the beginning of something neither of them saw coming. ***I do not own the rights to the characters or the previous story line. *** Completed.
