To love a rock star is to always come second.
A painful lesson Willow had to learn with him. She walked away from the flashing lights and empty promises of Ash, a musician whose fame was the only thing bigger than his ego. Trading a luxurious but hollow life for late nights, endless shifts, and a tiny apartment, Willow was determined to give her young son-and the one on the way-a life built on substance, not spotlight.
She expected loneliness. She expected hardship. She did not expect Orion.
Orion the kind of man you read about: reliable, kind, and utterly devoted. A true gentleman who sees her not as baggage or a burden, but as a queen. But when Ash's career suddenly stalls and he returns, desperate to reclaim his family, Willow must decide if she is strong enough to keep the life she built, and if Orion's gentle love is powerful enough to protect them from the shadow of the past.
In a world of noise, she finally found her quiet strength. Now, she just has to fight for it.
