Off the record - Malachi Barton
Sabrina Monroe wants nothing to do with famous people-especially arrogant, charming ones who think they can walk into her life uninvited.
She works at a small café, lives in a cramped house with her mom and younger sister, and keeps her world simple, guarded, and entirely her own.
Then one night a stranger with brown eyes, a crooked dimple, and far too much confidence sits beside her and pretends to be her boyfriend.
Malachi Barton was supposed to be a brief irritation.
Instead he keeps showing up.
At her café. In her thoughts. In all the places she swore no one would reach.
What begins as banter and resistance slowly becomes something harder to outrun as Sabrina finds herself pulled into a world she never trusted-and into a love she never meant to risk.
Set against late-night drives, beach bonfires, coffee runs, and restless summer nights, this is a story about two people learning that sometimes the scariest thing isn't falling in love-
it's letting yourself stay there.
