1998. London moves between the melancholy of Britpop and the last bursts of a broken decade. Jodie Thuner, the young promise of alternative folk, has just conquered the British charts with an intimate and unadorned album. Her world is one of order, harmonic silences, and whispering lyrics.
But when Valentine Records assigns her to open for The Midnight Ride-the most chaotic, worn-out, and revered cult band of the nineties-everything changes. The stage is no longer hers. It belongs to them: to Matthew Hill, his broken voice and indomitable frontman; to Dex, his sarcastic and self-destructive guitarist; to Joel, a restless drummer who lives on the edge; and to Neil, a silent bassist who sees more than he says.

Britpop was their battlefield, and every record was a loaded weapon. noel gallagher x fem!oc
Duncan
▶ Kiana: For the past handful of years, hiding behind anonymous words suited me just fine. I could twist them, expressing myself, and know that people found something of themselves when they were sung. But anonymity is no longer possible. As much as I want to, I can't keep my head buried in the sand and ignore everything around me. Ignore the past and its importance. I'm stepping out of the shadows, in part because I don't have a choice. The other part, though... Because I want to take the plunge and see what's on the other side. Most of all, find my heart again and get things right this time around. However, it's soon apparent that not everyone is in agreement with this new development. I guess I'll see just how many potholes I'll find during this journey. ▶ Duncan: Most people think I have everything I want. Most people also don't know the first thing about me, just what's out there, what I allow them to know. They don't know that fame and money means nothing without the family I've made. The family that's been incomplete for years. However... It doesn't mean I'm a happy camper when that changes, when the missing piece appears out of nowhere. First, because it forces me to face all the feelings, good and bad, that I've tried to push down. Second, because she's not quite the same... But that's okay. And third, because someone thinks they can mess with her, with us. In the end of the day, there's one thing that's as sure as the sun rising every morning: nothing and no one is stepping between me and Kiana this time. Not on my watch. 🏆300 × Adult × 11/17/20 🏆67 × Romantic Suspense × 11/30/2020 Book one in the Toxic Climax series. Dual POV, second-chance love story. 5k-word chapters on Fridays.

Noel Gallagher is wondering if he's got still what it takes to be relevant in a cut throat industry. After an awkward meeting, the unlikely pair find themselves oddly drawn to each other.

The Art of Ruining Me Gently
She's quiet in the way flowers bloom unseen, her mind a labyrinth of thoughts she dares not speak aloud, her hands aching to create what she's convinced must remain locked away. He's noise and color, a melody that doesn't just enter a room but fills it, carrying the scent of chaos and promise. Isla thought she could keep her world ordered, tucked safely between psychology textbooks and polite smiles, the sketches in her margins a secret even to herself. Then Finn, frontman to some underground London rock band, walked into her life; loud, unrepentant, a man with music in his bones and mischief in his smile. Their connection wasn't neat. It was reckless and raw. Each were the kind of fire others were too afraid to touch; but put together, they only burned brighter. Too much for everyone else; just right for each other. But can their wildfire passion survive the weight of their own fears?

Rise and Fall
Life has reinvented the definition of rock bottom so many times for twenty-six-year-old Sadie Blake. When her parents divorced she received a new stepfather, countless bruises and a major aversion to alcohol. With her stepfather she inherited a depressed mother, new siblings and a reckless stepsister. With her stepsister, an abandoned baby nephew and a lifetime of responsibility... Responsibility has never frightened Sadie. For so long it's been all she's known, thrown into situations outside her control and forced to just find a way to make it work. But the kind of responsibility and obligation Sadie has had to endure in her young life isn't sustainable for anyone, let alone a vulnerable teenage girl just trying to keep her family safe; and the repressed memories and overwhelming darkness lingering always in the back of her mind grow more menacing by the day, begging to be seen and felt, and threatening to consume her altogether. Through enlisting the help of a therapist, Sadie realises her list of regrets is a lot more comprehensive than she first thought, and topping that list are two very different but equally important people - Ruben Foster and Camden Jones - neither of which she has seen in over a decade, but who she comes to learn will be key to her positively moving forward in life with her eleven-year-old nephew. But the process of trudging through their respective shared pasts is proving a lot more challenging than she anticipated...Lengkap
