Six Strings and Secrets

He fell in love with the girl behind the lyrics.
He just didn't know... she was standing right in front of him.
Lyra Vale was never meant to be part of Midnight Static.
Just the girl behind the camera. Quiet. Unnoticed. Safe.
Until the band asks her to stay.
As their photographer.
As their manager.
As the one person holding everything together.
There's just one problem.
Kade Rowan.
Arrogant. Infuriating. Impossible to ignore.
He thinks she's uptight.
She thinks he's insufferable.
And yet-
they're forced into a fake relationship for the sake of the band's rising fame.
What starts as an act
quickly turns into something neither of them can control.
Late nights blur into something dangerous.
Arguments spark into tension that feels a little too real.
And somewhere between pretending and fighting-
they forget where the line is.
But while Kade is busy learning how to want Lyra...
he's already in love.
With a girl he's never met.
A lyricist known only as Vale Nocturne-
the voice behind the songs he can't stop playing,
the words that feel like they were written just for him,
the only person who has ever truly understood him.
The girl he's been falling for... without even knowing her name.
What he doesn't know-
is that Lyra Vale has been hiding behind those lyrics all along.
And when the truth finally comes out-
it won't just change everything.
It might destroy them.
