Tuckermcrae Stories

The world knows her face. No one knows her voice. Tessa McRae is famous for standing beside her sister. To the public, she is Tate McRae's shadow-her younger sister by ten months, her backup dancer on tour, her favorite model for magazine covers and music videos. Beautiful, poised, always in motion, always half a step out of frame. No one knows she used to write music. No one knows why she stopped. When Tate begins dating NHL star Jack Hughes in the middle of hockey season, Tessa follows her to New Jersey like she always does-protective, steady, invisible in the ways that matter. She doesn't expect to meet Luke Hughes. Jack's younger brother is quiet where the world is loud, gentle where fame is sharp. While Jack recovers from a freak injury and the season barrels forward without pause, Luke becomes an unexpected constant-text messages between flights, late-night calls after losses, small truths exchanged in the dark. What starts as friendship becomes something dangerous. Because Luke sees her. Not the model. Not the dancer. Not the sister. The girl who still hears songs in her bones. Every lyric she writes in secret feels like betrayal. Every feeling for Luke feels like crossing a line that can't be uncrossed. Because loving him doesn't just risk her heart. It risks her sister. Their fragile balance. The life Tessa rebuilt after her voice was taken from her. And when the music comes back louder than her fear, she must decide: remain the girl the world recognizes... or become the woman her heart has been writing all along. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ updating every sunday :)
