Upon arriving in New York City, escaping her nightmarish hell, Aaliyah Victors reinvents herself after learning about her mysterious past to pursue her lifelong dream as a musical performer and take the entire world by storm. However, getting into the limelight is not as easy as she had first hoped.

Between having almost no money, no place to live, and no one to turn to in a brand new city, Aaliyah found herself basically stranded and hopeless until Malcolm Waters, a big-time producer for one of the biggest record labels in the world, Soul Fusion, took her in and gave her hope that maybe things won't turn out so bad.

Though nothing in this business comes easy, with the help and support of her newfound friends and her budding romance with her songwriting partner and multi-talented artist Xavier Adams, Aaliyah can fulfill her dream of becoming an adored performer that belongs in the limelight.All Rights Reserved

Aashiqui by Eleven_ember

Aashiqui ☆♡ Once upon a time, they believed in each other more than the world did. Ian - the boy with a broken guitar and bigger dreams. Raisa - the girl who painted his future with her faith and smiles. From classrooms to late-night calls, from cheering the loudest to falling apart in silence - life drifted them away, just when they needed each other the most. Now, Ian is a rising star, standing under the brightest lights... but carrying the shadow of the only girl who once promised to whistle for his success. Raisa is chasing a different dream, buried under books and broken memories, pretending she doesn't hear his songs on the spotify. They say growing up means letting go. But what about the notes you once wrote for each other, and never got to finish? A story about dreams, distance, heartbreak, healing - and the bitter-sweet notes we leave behind. Welcome to a story of promises, prayers, and love letters written between the lines. @Ember_zia https://www.instagram.com/ember_zia?igsh=MWs4cWhwYm1uMGU2OQ==
