The Annandale Academy wasn't where Scarlett saw herself finishing her last year of school before university. One more year. It was only one more year. Yet the dreary countryside and cramped dorm rooms that smelt of faded cigarette smoke and wet stone were only fitting for the grey pall that had descended along with her previous expulsion. Once again she's surrounded by the silver spooned, but the children of the tight knit London elite are a far cry from those she was raised with. It's only fitting that there, amidst the hedonism and greed and blurring morals, that she meets Julian Chase. Iridescent with an edge of darkness to combat the burning brightness in equal parts, forever walking a thin line between self-destruction and cruelty. Scarlett sinks into their midst, woefully unprepared for the complicated lives she becomes entangled within. Every breath weighed, secrets and scandals whispered, and lies spilling as easily as they're made. And suddenly nothing is easy anymore.

In life there are things that are said, and then there are those that remain unsaid. For Keely Staub, her life mostly remained in the latter category. She kept the depth of her love of music hidden, even from her best friends. But when one song changes the world she lives in, shaking it to it's very core, everything she knows is about to change. Her future and a hidden past collide as she wades through a world she'd never dared to dream of. One that allows her half heart to maybe find an equally broken one in the unlikely source of Seth Ryan.

Keely Staub has grown up. At least that's what she thinks has happened. No longer a naive eighteen year old being introduced to a music industry that's equal parts grandeur and grime, she might even be considered a veteran. At just twenty six, she's lived almost too much of a life in the intervening years since she first came to New York. A great love and a great band, not to mention more than a few unsavoury addictions picked up along the way in the time honoured traditions of the rock stars before her. And she gave it all up - except the rock star part, of course. That was a different Keely Staub, a more innocent and wild one all at the same time. She's determined that person and all the things that came with her will stay in the past, and has a very clear path laid in front of her. A measured, smart, hopefully one day respected, path. The problem is the past refuses to remain the past.
