In Marley, rebellion has a melody.
Lillian "Lilly" Leclair - daughter of a decorated Marleyan general, born of both Eldian and Marleyan blood - sings for soldiers, spies for the forgotten, and hides her secrets between the notes of her songs. Each performance is a risk. Each verse, a quiet act of defiance.
When the Scouts from Paradis arrive under the guise of diplomacy, her carefully ordered world fractures. Among them stands Captain Levi Ackerman - sharp, silent, and impossible to read. Their alliance is fragile, their trust uncertain, and yet something unspoken lingers in every glance, every breath between words.
As war brews and loyalties blur, Lilly must decide how much of herself she's willing to give for the freedom she sings about - and how much she's already lost.
Music is her weapon. Silence is her armor. And love, the most dangerous rebellion of all.

PAUL I cheated on my fiancée. Sophie and I were building our future. In love, happy, peaceful. Then she found a lump in her breast and I made the worst choice: I numbed my fear by sleeping with someone else. My worst mistake and my biggest regret. Now I see Sophie around town with him. She's radiant and laughing with people who actually show up. I'm trying to learn how to be a man who does. If she lets me, I'll spend the rest of my life proving I can choose her when it's hardest. If she lets me... SOPHIE I thought the promise was in sickness and in health. But he buried his fear in someone else. On the same night, I walked into a bookstore and meet the gentle giant owner who invites me to his book club full of misfits. I'm laughing again, I smile more than I ever have, I heal my heart. My ex says he can learn to stay, but my bookstore owner keeps showing up like it's as easy as breathing. I don't know what the future holds; I don't know if I'll win this battle against cancer, but I do know I'm done wasting time on people that love only when it's easy. CALLUM She came in to Rivers & Rhodes Bookstore and asked for books with happy endings only. I gave her a recommendation, an invitation, and an offer of friendship. Now, this beautiful brave woman is completely under my skin. I'm not here to win a competition against him. I'm here because choosing someone, second by second, is the only way I understand love. Content Warnings: on page cheating, emotional and physical infidelity, cancer, mentions of vomiting, bleeding, surgery. Please be advised.
