At 17 years old, River Mayfield dropped out of high school to play guitar in his brother's band. Years later, he is living a lifestyle he never dreamed possible. Sex, drugs, alcohol. When people love who they think you are, they will give you anything. River watches his bandmates navigate the slippery slope as he begins to slip himself. The school of hard knocks didn't teach him how to handle this.
Grace Bell isn't new to this lifestyle but things change. She writes for Vinyl Magazine... and she doesn't sing anymore, for anyone. A few rock stars have left notches in her bed post but she's growing bored of talentless narcissists. In order to spark her journalism career, the story has to be big. But Grace has secrets, too. She's gone from the daughter of late country singer Joshua Wellington to someone she doesn't even recognize.
Who will burn first?
/ inspired by River Phoenix, Fleetwood Mac, Almost Famous and Greta Van Fleet 🌼

You and Me (Plus Everyone In Between Us)
17-almost-18-year-old Ezra Thompson is tired of two things. First, is constant chatter about Dilemma, an all-boy rock band, led by the supposedly-dreamy frontman Andre Robinson that somehow has a universal grip on every teenager in the world. Personally, Ezra doesn't see the appeal. Second, being in the shadow of her more smart, successful, and popular twin brother Emmet. Ezra couldn't ask for a better life. The thing is, Ezra, can sing. Like really sing. Only her parents who are occasionally proud of her, treat it as a juvenile hobby and she could never sing in front of people. So for now, her shampoo bottles get front-row access to her once-a-night concert in the shower. But when Ezra's younger sister, Maria, signs her up for a singing reality show called Finding Solstice, she is both angry and grateful. To her surprise, she passes the audition and is invited to Los Angeles for the show. Suddenly immersed in the cutthroat music industry, Ezra faces a whirlwind competition against fame-hungry singers, all fighting tooth and nail for the same prize. Amidst the manufactured forces of the industry, she must stand her ground and protect her passion for music. As if that wasn't enough, Ezra finds herself suddenly encountering a pretentious rockstar and is unexpectedly drawn to him. As the competition heats up, Ezra finds herself at the center of a brewing scandal that could end her career before it even starts. The pressure is on, and Ezra is torn between her passion for music and the fear of being dragged down. The stakes are high, and people are unforgiving, but Ezra knows that her music is worth fighting for. With her future on the line, she must navigate the twists and turns of the music industry and stay focused on what really matters: her music and her dreams.Complete
