The man in front of me gave me a lopsided smirk, "Feisty. I like that." I rolled my eyes, sipped my drink and narrowed my eyes at the bartender, "Shouldn't you be doing your job?" "There's other things I could be doing," he responded with a wink. He started pouring another drink, "Got a name?" "Audrey." The man gave me a wicked grin, "I'm Nathan." A/N: This is a mature New Adult romance!

Music is Claire's dream, but it seems like the universe is telling her to quit. And now with her dad's diagnosis of Alzheimer's, it's becoming harder to keep her promise to him- to pursue her dream with everything she has. Just as she decides to give it up for good, she gets one more chance to make it big- but it requires rebuilding some tense relationships from her past. And, of course, it's not as easy as just playing friends again. Casanova, the city's notorious graffiti artist, hasn't had any new ideas for the last year. He's been stuck, unsure if he'd ever paint again. But as he's finally coaxed back out of hiding to do what he's best at once again, he's met with opposition from not only the mayor who is hell-bent on ridding the city of graffiti, but other artists as well. The two of them are entangled in each other's success-- or failure-- even if they don't know it just yet.

When Richard discovers someone's been sharing his secrets with Charles, he retaliates by recruiting his girlfriend to do the opposite.
