Kevin Fieldman is at the height of his career. His sophomore album Midnight Roses has just swept the Grammys, breaking streaming records and cementing his status as one of the biggest pop stars on the planet. Charming, magnetic, and endlessly talented, Kevin is seen as a generational icon - until his world begins to crumble.

Shortly after his Grammy win, a young woman comes forward with accusations of sexual harassment and emotional abuse. Within weeks, more women step forward with eerily similar stories, detailing troubling behavior spanning years. The media frenzy is instantaneous. Fans are divided. Sponsors pull out. Tour dates are canceled. Kevin insists he's innocent, calling the allegations "misunderstandings" and "lies meant to destroy a man at his peak."

As the case moves to court, the story unfolds through a chorus of voices: Kevin's longtime manager struggling to protect a career he helped build; his loyal but conflicted sister who begins to question what she thought she knew; a former friend turned accuser haunted by years of silence; and Kevin himself, whose reflections bounce between denial, rage, guilt, and confusion.

The narrative slips between past and present - from Kevin's rise to stardom to the unraveling of his image - blurring the lines between charisma and manipulation, love and control, truth and perception. Social media becomes its own courtroom, and every decision, every memory, is dissected under a merciless spotlight.

Rain is a necessary evil. It's prayed for yet cursed and hated. It brings forth destruction and life simultaneously. Rain is a refreshing sprinkle and an overwhelming flood. It's elusive, and it alone decides when and where to release its precipitation with no regard to the impact of its power. *** Summer breezed into McGrath's Pub like a breath of fresh air.

DISCLAIMER: This book contains explicit content and mature themes intended for readers aged 18 and over. It is not a traditional romance, but rather a deeply complex and dark exploration of a toxic relationship. The characters' dynamics involve intense emotional manipulation, power struggles, and actions that may be triggering to some readers. Please be advised that this story delves into themes that are explicit, emotionally charged, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Proceed with caution. "Tell me again how you don't want me," he whispers, dragging his lips down her neck. "Say it under oath, and I might even believe you." Jasmine Taylor doesn't lose. Not in the courtroom, not in life. At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional. But when she's assigned the biggest case of her career-defending Dimitri Alekseev, a dangerously alluring Russian immigrant accused of murder-her world begins to crack. Dimitri isn't just a suspect. He's a problem. Tall, tattooed, and terrifyingly unreadable, with ties to a powerful family the law doesn't dare touch. The evidence against him is overwhelming. The press wants him buried. And deep down, Jasmine suspects the whispers are true. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to separate fact from instinct. Because beneath his cold exterior is something intoxicating. Calculated charm. Raw heat. And secrets whispered in the dark. As the trial barrels forward, Jasmine finds herself pulled into his world-one filled with shadows, blood ties, and undeniable temptation. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she risks not just her career, but her safety... and her soul. What happens when the woman who always plays by the rules falls for the man who was born to break them?
