She came to New York to dance.
He stayed to disappear.
Lana Reeve has spent her entire life mastering control-over her body, her future, her heart. Becoming a contemporary dance star was never a dream. It was a promise.
Elliot Cruz only plays his guitar on Saturday nights in a forgotten bar, where music hurts less than memory and no one asks him to be more than he already is.
They were never meant to meet.
They were never meant to want.
But when ambition collides with obsession, and art begins to bleed into desire, lines blur between passion and destruction.
Some love stories rise.
Others unravel-slowly, beautifully, and painfully.
She dances to survive.
He plays to forget.
And together, they might ruin everything.

Southern Pride BWWM WMBW
Nashville was loud with music and full of restless nights, but for Sonia it was more than a city-it was a crossroads. She was twenty-three, new to the rhythm of downtown streets and late-night bars, still carrying the quiet weight of where she came from. With Shayla at her side, the friend who could turn any night into a story, she found herself pulled into places she never planned to be. That's where Colton came in-twenty-six, the kind of Southern charm that could feel dangerous, with boots that looked as bold as his grin. Their first run-ins were quick, almost forgettable, but the spark lingered. He was loud where she was guarded, curious where she was cautious. In a city where everyone seemed to be chasing the spotlight, Sonia never thought she'd catch his attention-or that he'd catch hers.
Something There
'"Can you spread your legs a little farther for me, baby?" he asks me, his voice a low whisper. I nod, doing exactly as I'm told, and he bites down on his lower lip. "Good girl," he breathes, and those two words alone do the most wicked things to me. His fingers trail even farther north until he reaches the hem of my underwear. His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable. "Yes or no?" he asks me quietly, and I nod frantically.' 🌸🌸🌸 Lexi Brooks' love life was suddenly flipped upside down when she was kissed by Bryce Bradshaw the day before he mysteriously moved away. It left her heart in a twist, until her mind was trapped elsewhere when 'The Incident' occurred; quite possibly the hardest thing she'd ever go through. But Bryce always had it easy. He was the heartthrob, the bad boy, the perfect guy. He had the looks, the talent, and the charisma. Though to Lexi's surprise, on the rare occasion she could catch him out of the spotlight, she saw something else there. She could tell that he was a little distant.
