Louis Tomlinson had always been the problem child of One Direction: sharp-tongued, rebellious, reckless, and a constant thorn in Simon Cowell's side. The stereotypical bad boy: tattoos, cigarettes, attitude for days. He was a bad influence that couldn't be controlled- it was the reputation he wore like an armour. It was easier to be hated than to be understood. But the last thing Louis expected was to become completely, irrationally obsessed with one girl - a raven-haired disaster with a voice he couldn't ignore.
Mikayla Cowell's life had never been clean or easy.
She had spent her whole life suffocating in her father's shadow: groomed to be perfect, polished, untouchable. Instead, she became everything he despised: loud where she should be quiet, reckless where she should be careful, broken in ways that couldn't be fixed with money or PR. If she was going to be a disappointment anyway, she might as well choose it.
When One Direction's opening act pulls out days before tour, Simon makes a desperate, humiliating decision - he puts his own "failure" and her band on stage. Suddenly, Mikayla isn't just the daughter he keeps hidden.
She's the opener.
The risk.
The scandal waiting to happen.
Thrown onto tour together, Louis and Mikayla clash instantly - sparks flying in all the wrong ways. Louis hates her on sight. She's everything he can't stand- privileged, volatile, and worst of all, Simon Cowell's daughter.
She hates him right back. He's arrogant, infuriating, too head strong, and exactly the type of guy her father warned her about.
But hatred starts to blur into tension. Tension turns into something sharper. Softer. Far more dangerous, because in a world built on fame, secrets, and impossible expectations, falling in love might be the biggest mistake of all.
