*Book #1 in the Edgewater Series*
Disgraced.
23 year old famous popstar Gracelyn "Grace" Matthews has maintained a near perfect image of her reputation; Perfect album releases, perfect tours, perfect lifestyle. A perfectly crafted illusion that shatters when Grace suddenly makes headlining news about an alleged affair with her executive music producer.
To divert from the shocking revelation, Grace's manager, Catherine, sends her off to her hometown of Edgewater, the place Grace abandoned years ago, in an attempt to salvage her disgraced reputation and social status. However, when Grace arrives in Edgewater, she realizes that the hometown she once knew has become riddled with distrust to outsiders and the childhood home she grew up in is now being managed under the supervision of her former highschool bully, Julián Cortez.
Grace can't stand the thought of being near Julián but the bad boy covered in tattoos who used to bully her has transformed into a man who Grace can't help but feel a connection towards, even if she wants to deny it.
Excerpt:
"You're not actually being serious, are you? There's no way I can go back there, Cat!"
I relayed this news to Catherine, my manager who has been in charge of my career from the moment it took off, and she sighed heavily as her eyes held the truth behind her words,
"You don't have a choice, Grace. It's either this or stay in LA to watch the end of your career."
She had me there and she knew it too which is why, when I exhaled begrudgingly, Cat knew I was stuck in-between a rock and a hard place when the decision was made for me.
"When do I leave for Edgewater?"

Room Next Door ☆ Elijah Hewson
Eli Hewson, frontman of the rising rock band Inhaler, is unraveling. Months of creative block, tension with his bandmates, and a devastating breakup with his girlfriend, Grace Burns, have left him questioning everything-his music, his relationships, even his identity. What once felt like a dream life now feels hollow, and the cracks are impossible to ignore. In search of clarity, Eli retreats to the legendary Chelsea Hotel in New York, hoping its storied walls might reignite his lost spark. There, among ghosts of artists past, he isolates himself from fame, friends, and expectations-until he meets Saoirse Dupret. Saoirse, a sharp-witted groupie-turned-columnist for Star magazine, lives in the room next door. With her unapologetic energy, biting commentary on the music world, and a personal history as complex as Eli's, she becomes an unlikely companion. As the two form a friendship built on late-night conversations, shared loneliness, and mutual curiosity, Eli begins to peel back the layers of his life and rediscover the heart of his artistry. But as their bond deepens and the outside world starts to call him back, Eli must confront the truth about who he is-both onstage and off-and what he's willing to sacrifice to find his voice again. Set against the backdrop of rock 'n' roll's past and present, this is a story about identity, reinvention, and the unexpected connections that can pull us out of the darkest moments.Complete
Astrid
Carter slowly walked towards me, butterflies swarming in my stomach, filling every inch of me. "Assi." he grabbed my wrists, and made me look at him. "Who was that song about?" "You know who." "Was it... about me?" "What would you say if it was?" I cocked my head to the side, our eyes staying connected with each other. "I wouldn't say." he moved closer to me, towering over by the slightest bit as his breath surrounded my every nerve. He leant down, took a sharp breath and connected our lips. - Astrid was a beautiful girl, who had lost her sense of who she was and where she belonged. She went through something traumatic at only 14, but no one noticed. She moved to Roseville for a fresh start with her best friend Kaitlyn by her side. But Carter notices.
