In the dazzling world of music, she reigns as the undisputed queen - the most successful musician of our time. A woman of breathtaking beauty, intelligence, and possessing all that the heart could ever desire. Her life seems like a dream, adorned with the love of the best brother in the world, a perfect husband, and the pure joy of her wonderful children. Yet, amidst this glittering facade, shadows linger - for she carries a burden that threatens to consume her very soul - a battle with cancer and a dreaded secret she holds close to her heart.

At forty, as Katie de Rossi nears her end, her devoted brother John stands unwaveringly by her side, reminiscent of their unbreakable bond from childhood. Meanwhile, reporter Francine O'Connor, at the entrance of a New York hospital, shares poignant moments of famous visitors bidding tearful farewells to the superstar and reveals glimpses of the progress of her illness. But where does Francine get her intimate knowledge? What secret binds her to Katie, weaving their lives together for over two decades?

"Katie" is an extraordinary tale of fame, fortune, and the depths of human emotions. It unveils a woman's heart - love and hate, loneliness and companionship, joy, and sorrow - all intertwined in a symphony of life's complexities. In the end, it leaves an indelible impression - a timeless reminder that amidst grandeur, the essence of life lies in the simplest of human connections, where love and sorrow dance perhaps a little too closely for comfort.

A dead woman walking would make anyone do a double take. She never thought she would see him again. He never thought she could have survived. More questions left than answers Jada and Alessio must finally work together. Nothing was right in the world without Jada in it and now nothing was right with her in it either. Book Excerpt: "Where are you trying to take me? You snagged us up, but where are we going," She asked pointedly. "To my grandparent's home." "That's a terrible idea. We need a safe place to go, not somewhere so obvious." "My grandfather knows important people. Trust me, he's the safest place in Italy we could be." "No, I won't just blindly follow your lead. I won't risk my sons life on something like that." "And where would you go? How would you be any safer? If it wasn't for me, our son would be long gone. You have no resources. You have nothing. Somehow, I am the bad guy!" "Yes you're the fucking bad guy, you can't trip me into marriage and then putting me through hell as I tried my best to survive. You're the bad guy because I never agree to be with a criminal master mind or whatever you do. I have no idea. I don't know anything about you. I was cheated on and lied to just as much. Don't go blaming your hurt feelings all on me. You started this. You are the reason. I'm finally reacting to the way you treated me! I was delusional, scared, and confused. You isolated me from my people. I wasn't okay. I've been ripped from the life I knew!" [In Progress 4/19/24- ] Rankings #118 Man #44 deathandlife #5 lovetragedy

THISIS THE OLD, ORIGINAL VERSION OF THE STORY! I left it up because the new version has significant differences, and I know I always hate it when I liked the old version of a story better and it gets taken down, but I still highly recommend reading the new one.
