When guarded music icon Billie Eilish crosses paths with Ava, a quietly heartbroken writer, at a party in the Hollywood Hills, neither expects the pull between them to be this intense-or this real.

Told in alternating POVs, Quiet Burn is a slow-burn, emotionally charged romance about falling in love in the real world, where passion collides with fame, fear, and the kind of connection that changes everything.

The Masked Melody

19 parts Complete

Sophie has spent her life in the shadows - a lyrical ghost behind the spotlight of her brother, global music icon Louis. Known only as the reclusive genius who helps him write hits, Sophie prefers solitude, six-stringed confessionals, and ink-stained notebooks to flashing cameras and roaring crowds. She's always said no to fame. No to the red carpets. No to the headlines. Until the Met Gala. With its masquerade theme offering perfect anonymity, Sophie agrees - just once - to step into the spotlight unseen. Draped in an all-black suit stitched with dark florals, her mask a work of whispered artistry, she turns heads without revealing a single truth. But when her eyes meet hers, everything changes. Billie Eilish - enigmatic, untouchable, and effortlessly captivating - is the one person who makes Sophie forget she doesn't belong. A quiet poem scribbled between glasses of champagne becomes the start of a connection neither of them expected. One dance. One poem. One night that turns into something impossible to forget. Now Billie is chasing a stranger with music in her blood and poetry in her soul - but Sophie is used to running. In a world of masks, will love dare to be seen?
