**Off the Record** tells the story of Kiana, an eighteen-year-old from Crenshaw trying to stay afloat amid the noise of life. Between her mom working double shifts and bills piling up, Kiana's focus is survival-not chasing dreams. Music is just something she does in secret, recording late at night when the world is quiet.

Everything changes when she meets 22-year-old R\&B artist Brent Faiyaz, who recognizes a raw, honest talent beneath her guarded exterior. As their worlds collide behind the scenes, Brent challenges Kiana to believe in herself and take a chance on her voice. But stepping into the spotlight means facing fears Kiana never imagined-and deciding if she's ready to let the world hear her truth.

Rooted in the pulse of the city, *Off the Record* is a coming-of-age journey about friendship, self-discovery, and the unexpected love that finds you when you least expect it.

📖 Title: The Sunset Knew Our Secret Genre: Teen Romance | Coming-of-Age | Drama --- Some bonds begin quietly-through shared silences, after-school sunsets, and unsaid glances. 🌇📝 When Kiana Oberoi transfers to Woodvale High in her final school year, she isn't searching for attention or love. Independent and observant, she prefers quiet corners, scribbled notebooks, and keeping her distance. But her world changes when she meets Siddharth Kaur-a calm, grounded student still healing from a painful breakup. 💔 As days slip into golden evenings, the two form a connection built on comfort, trust, and the kind of companionship that doesn't need definition. Through riverside conversations, long bike rides, and teasing friends, they become inseparable-though neither admits what they truly feel. ✨ But when past feelings resurface and emotional lines blur, Kiana must face the truth she's been avoiding: some people come into your life to stay, others only until you heal. 💬🫶 Set against the backdrop of school corridors, group chats, winter chai breaks, and monsoon memories, The Sunset Knew Our Secret is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about friendship, betrayal, slow-burn feelings, and letting go with grace. 🧣📚 Perfect for readers who love slow, emotional narratives with strong character arcs, relatable teenage dilemmas, and golden-hour nostalgia, this novel reminds us that sometimes, the things we leave unsaid speak loudest of all. 🌤️💭 ---

Shall we begin?" ~~~ Prompt #67: "What? Why are you looking at me as if I grew horns?" With a twist on Prompt #4: "You're a weapon, and weapons don't weep."--> to "You're a God, and Gods don't weep."
