Genevieve Hanani has survived the chaos of the fashion world, the glare of the L.A. spotlight, and the unexpected whirlwind of falling in love with Luka Dončić. Now, with their wedding only months away and their dream home finally coming together, she wants, desperately, for life to feel settled. Perfect. Peaceful. But perfection has never been Genevieve's style.
Fashion Week hits harder than ever, and while the world praises her grace and brilliance, behind the scenes she's exhausted, nauseous, and brushing off the one truth she refuses to consider: something is changing, and it's happening inside her. She tells herself she'll deal with it after the runways, after the chaos... after everything else. Meanwhile, Luka is fighting a battle of his own. Still haunted by the bitterness of the Dallas trade, he's determined to prove himself-on the court, to the league, and to the team that believed in him. As the Lakers push for a championship run, he's stretched thin, split between the season's pressure and the life he's building with the woman he loves.
They're supposed to be planning a wedding. Instead, they're juggling fame, exhaustion, fear... and a secret that's growing stronger every day. Love brought them together.But trust, resilience, and a promise they made long before rings were exchanged...those are what will carry them through the playoffs, and into their forever.
Sequel to Book 1 - Beauty and The Ball

Dean, Beau and the dying girl, Off Campus
Dean blinked, not understanding. Not fully. "Sick how?" Rosie pressed a hand to her chest. Pain flared beneath her palm. Sharp now. Wrong. "I'm sick," she repeated. Dean stepped forward immediately. "Okay. I'll take you home. You'll feel better tomorrow." The gentleness in his voice broke her. "No, Dean." Her knees weakened. Beau caught her elbow. "Rosie." She looked at them both through tears. For weeks, she had imagined telling them. Not like this. Never like this. Not in a bar with music pounding and her heart misfiring in her chest.

Forward | Rewind to Tomorrow [Michael Jackson]
"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.
