Jolene has spent the last five years in a secret relationship with Neon, a world-renowned singer-songwriter whose charm captivates millions-but whose betrayal shatters her world. Just as they
Just got engaged, Neon commits the ultimate act of heartbreak, leaving Jolene not only humiliated but questioning everything she believed about love.
Determined to rise from the ashes, Jolene sets her sights on the entertainment industry, chasing her dream of becoming an actress. Her big break comes when she lands a role in a film directed by the enigmatic and notoriously difficult Academy Award-winning director, Nicolai E. Knox. From the moment she steps onto his set, sparks fly-but not the romantic kind. Nicolai sees Jolene as a distraction, a thorn in his side, and a symbol of everything he despises about fame-chasing newcomers.
But as the cameras roll and the drama unfolds both on and off screen, Jolene and Nicolai find themselves entangled in a story far more complicated than the one they're filming. Beneath the tension lies undeniable chemistry, and behind Nicolai's cold exterior is a man haunted by his own past.
As Jolene navigates the treacherous world of PR teams, paparazzi, and public scrutiny, she must decide: will she let her heartbreak define her, or will she rewrite her story? And in a world built on illusion, can love ever be real?

Found in Darkness
A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.
