Ambition brought her here. Desire may destroy her. Alexandrea Castillo has spent her life fighting to prove she belongs. Haunted by her mother's death, her father's failed suicide, and a forbidden love affair that nearly ruined her career before it began, she seizes the chance of a lifetime: an internship at the world-renowned Blythe Studios. But the studio is a battlefield. Rivals sharpen their smiles into weapons, and Julian Blythe-the legendary genius whose approval can launch careers or end them-fixates on Alex as his new "spark." His attention feels like opportunity...until it feels like danger. And then there's Trevor Thornton: Alex's former professor, her first love, and the man who broke her heart. His reappearance forces her to confront everything she swore she'd left behind-even as her walls begin to crack. When Julian is found dead after a rehearsal spirals out of control, the glittering promise of Blythe Studios turns into a trap of secrets and suspicion. Alex must decide who she can trust in a world where ambition cuts deep, desire runs darker, and survival may demand a sacrifice she isn't ready to make.
