A Taste of Candor
When a struggling foreign musician crosses paths with a spirited lady who is a patron of the arts, the two develop a harmonious rapport. The two must face an array of prejudices and misunderstandings that threaten to dissolve their bond. ***** Declan is an understated yet persistent young saxophonist, a recent immigrant from war-torn Candor and a newcomer to the Silverport music scene. He has little to boast of besides the clothes on his back, the saxophone in his hand, and a staunch determination to secure himself a niche on the bandstand to make a living healing souls with his art. Nonetheless, due to various adversities, he can't seem to be able to hold down a stable job, and mere perseverance won't keep food on the table. Meanwhile, Tahlia Paige enjoys a life of luxury among the upper classes of the city, her father being an accomplished military officer who receives generous helpings of the reparation funds pouring in from Candor. At any time, she can have nearly anything she desires. But one trouble ails the Paige family. The big band they maintain to keep them entertained in the evenings can't seem to keep one of its saxophone positions filled. When Declan and Tahlia's paths inevitably converge and their individual lives begin to intertwine, a connection develops. But a host of prejudices stand to keep the two apart and compel several in Tahlia's circle to keep Declan at arms' length from her. Can the two surmount these obstacles, or is their convergence truly destined to be only temporary? ALL RIGHTS RESERVED © 2021 by @Flamesword01 Cover by @dilenuComplete

Musical Fallacy
She's a storm trying to quiet. He's a light she never thought she deserved. Together, they're learning how to heal-note by note. Daisy doesn't believe in second chances. Not when her past is littered with broken promises, bruises she hides behind eyeliner, and a voice she only uses when singing behind dim lights. Music is the only thing that makes sense-but even that's starting to slip through her fingers. Declan has always watched from the sidelines. Protective. Steady. Quiet. He knows Daisy's chaos like his own heartbeat, and he'll do anything to help her find her way back to herself-even if it means holding her hand through the wreckage. When a surprise offer could launch Daisy into the spotlight she's only dreamed of, the pressure builds. Sobriety, trust, the tangled ache of something more-than-friendship-nothing is simple anymore. Not even the songs. In a story woven with music, vulnerability, and the rawness of first love, [Insert Book Title] is a hauntingly hopeful look at what it means to fall apart-and choose to put yourself back together. Perfect for fans of Kathleen Glasgow (author of Girl In Pieces) and Nina Lacour (author of We Are Okay)Complete

Six Strings and Second Chances
Eleven-year-old Riley doesn't do trust. She's burned through too many homes, too many promises, and too many adults who swore they were different. She's sharp-tongued, street-tough, and permanently half-packed-ready to run the second things go south. Enter Logan: a quiet, inked-up metal guitarist with a past he keeps close to the chest. He didn't become a foster parent to play savior-he just knew what it felt like to grow up angry and invisible, and figured maybe he could make a difference for someone else. He wasn't expecting Riley. They clash. Hard. But beneath the sarcasm, slammed doors, and late-night silences, music starts to bridge the gap-something loud and raw that speaks the words neither of them can say. Slowly, painfully, they begin to build something like trust. Then Riley's secret slips. A little sister. Still in the system. Still alone. And suddenly Logan has to decide how far he's willing to go-not just to keep Riley, but to fight for the broken pieces she's still trying to protect. Six Strings and Second Chances is a gritty, heartwrenching story about found family, trauma, and the noise we make when we're finally ready to be heard.
