As far as dads go, Grace hadn't exactly lucked out.
Blake Travis is a narcissistic rock star who has his sights set on making a comeback but he can't do it without his daughter's help.
Thanks to a mountain of debt that her socialite mother accumulated, Grace reluctantly agrees with Blake's plan and works on proving to the whole world that her father, who hadn't been around for most of her life, was actually a real peach.
Unfortunately, being on tour means singing on tour and Grace is a little out of practice. When the surly drummer in her father's band tries to get her to leave, will Grace stick around long enough to find her voice?
And can a girl who doesn't know what it's like to have a father convince the world that her Dad is #1?

Eventually (kylia)
Kylie's always been the kind of girl who falls too fast and feels too deeply, though ever since a brutal breakup left her traumatized, she's never been the same. Before the breakup, she was all in, a hopeless romantic, loyal to a fault, and crazy in love. She gave everything to someone who promised forever, only to be betrayed. It felt like being kissed on the forehead while a knife was sliding between her ribs. Tender, calculated, and devastatingly personal. The pain wasn't just emotional; it was identity-shattering. This new Kylie's known for two things: wild nights and a heart locked behind sarcasm and tequila. Feelings? Overrated. But everything changes the night her best friend throws a college party and she meets Malia. Malia's a quiet, soft-spoken, clever girl with curly brown hair and eyes that seem to ask all the right questions. That night, they hit it off right away. Maybe it was their chemistry, or maybe it was just the tequila. Though the day after the party goes a bit differently. Kylie does what she always does: flirts, charms, and makes her move. But Malia isn't like the others. She turns Kylie down, gently but firmly, explaining she's not interested in meaningless flings. She wants something real. And the for first time in years, Kylie finds herself wanting to slow down, to dig deeper, and maybe, revert to the old, lover-girl version of herself, or possibly, be the kind of person someone like Malia could fall for. Little does she know, love really does make you crazy. TW: mature language, alcohol, substance abuse, murder, and some other sensitive subjects.Complete
Enemies to Lovers - Kylia story
Kylie Cantrall and Malia Baker were once inseparable - childhood best friends with matching bracelets and late-night video calls that never ended in goodbyes. But everything changed the day Malia disappeared without a word. No texts. No explanations. Just silence. Two years later, Malia's back - colder, sharper, and with a mysterious edge that Kylie doesn't recognize... or trust. The betrayal still burns in Kylie's chest, and it doesn't help that Malia acts like she never cared in the first place. Tension sparks the moment they reunite. The hallway stares. The biting remarks. The undeniable chemistry. What neither of them wants to admit is that under the bitterness lies something unspoken. Something real. But with old wounds, buried secrets, and their tight-knit friend group caught in the crossfire, Kylie and Malia must decide: will they let the past define them, or risk everything for what might still be burning between them? Enemies by fate. Lovers by choice... if they can survive each other first.Complete
