Hollywood had been suffocating Victoria Grey for months. There were too many eyes, too many expectations, and pressure from her father she couldn't escape. So she did the only thing that made sense: she went off the grid and disappeared to a tiny beach town no one would ever think to look in.

That's where she met James. A gorgeous stranger with a dangerous smile and a kiss that tasted like trouble. Neither of them shared any information about each other except for first names.

For one perfect week, they lived in a world with no rules-just stolen kisses, late-night confessions, and a connection that felt too intense to belong to two strangers.

They made one rule: When the vacation ends, so do we. No calls. No searching. No exceptions. A clean break. A goodbye sealed with one last kiss neither of them wanted to give.

But Hollywood loves irony.

On her first day back in Hollywood, Victoria walks into Rocque Records- her father's label- and comes face-to-face with the one man she swore she'd never see again.

James. Her James. Except now he isn't just the boy from the beach- He's James Diamond. Famous, untouchable, and absolutely off-limits.

The moment their eyes meet, the lie of "we're done" shatters. The chemistry is still there. The danger is worse. And the secret they shared miles away from LA is about to become the biggest scandal of her life.
