When aloof, leather-jacket-wearing record store owner Eli Reyes-all sharp jawlines and sharper sarcasm-hires broke, soft-spoken music theory dropout Noah Kim, things are supposed to stay strictly business. But between slow-dancing after closing, whispered confessions in the back room, and hands brushing over dusty vinyl, the lines blur fast.
Eli's past is a scratched-up mixtape of mistakes, and Noah? He's a damn symphony of longing and curiosity wrapped in oversized sweaters. But when a jealous ex returns and the truth behind Eli's silence is finally played out loud, will Noah stay-or will this duet fall flat?
