Her past was darkness. Her future is starlight.
***
Noah never expected to see him again-the boy who once held her hand through scraped knees and broken dreams. They were inseparable as kids-until life pulled them apart. Now, years later, he's back, older, wiser, and determined to rescue her from the shadows she's been living in. The young girl he knew who danced with no music and laughed so brightly it lit his world on fire; was now a shell of the girl she once was. He's determined to remind her just who she is. As danger closes in, their childhood bond ignites into a passionate love, proving that even in the darkest shadows, starlight can guide the way.

***
This book will NOT mention the allegations around Michael. They were proven FALSE. I refuse to give more light to that.
*Disclaimer: The abuse doesn't last long, but there will be some triggering mentions in the first few chapters and some throughout the book.
Kind of a slow burn!
I hope you enjoy xx

Human Nature
1993-2009 ~My eyes reflect my sadness, I don't like to invite people into it~ ~You are a dash of sunlight in an obscure room~ In 1993, 25-year-old Violeta Cruz has finally achieved her dream of graduating from medical school and is preparing to leave her hometown for Los Angeles, where she'll begin her OB-GYN residency. Before her new life begins, her friends surprise her with the graduation gift of a lifetime: a trip to London and front-row tickets to see the King of Pop in concert. What starts as the perfect celebration quickly becomes something she never could have imagined. After an unforgettable night, a chance encounter with Michael Jackson changes everything. Suddenly, Violeta finds herself seeing the man behind the global phenomenon rather than the superstar the world thinks it knows. As they grow closer, she discovers that the tabloids rarely tell the truth, fame can be painfully isolating, and the person behind the spotlight is far more complex than the headlines suggest. As fantasy gives way to reality, Violeta struggles to reconcile the practical life she's worked so hard to build with feelings she never expected to have. Torn between reason and her heart, she must decide whether some once-in-a-lifetime connections are worth the risks they bring. Maybe love doesn't always make sense. Maybe it's just Human Nature...
His Protégé | Michael Jackson (Completed)
"Don't let them mute your sound, Talia. Your culture, your rhythm, that is your magic. Guard it with your life." In 1995, the global music industry is a battlefield, and Michael Jackson is a king behind high armor. Fierce, guarded, and under the suffocating lens of the world media, he is preparing for his most aggressive era yet. He doesn't have time for distractions. Until he hears Talia. A rising British-Indian artist straight out of the underground London music scene, Talia is a breath of fresh, defiant air. With her striking jewel-toned style, a mesmerizing vocal agility rooted in her heritage, and an innovative sound that fuses heavy R&B with traditional rhythms, she is on the brink of global stardom. But the American music executives want to strip away her identity, molding her into a predictable, cookie-cutter pop star. Recognizing a rare, untamed spark, the King of Pop steps in. He offers her an invitation that changes everything: let me mentor you. Behind the heavy, closed doors of the recording studio, their world shrinks. Away from the flashing cameras and the shouting crowds, the untouchable icon fades, revealing a deeply empathetic man with short, messy hair, bare feet, and a brilliant, consumed mind. What starts as rigorous masterclasses in stage presence and industry survival quickly blurs into something dangerous. As the media's knives sharpen and the pressure to survive the industry reaches a boiling point, Talia becomes his safe haven, and Michael becomes her ultimate protector. But in a world that thrives on tearing icons down, can a master and his protégé cross the line into love without destroying the very music that brought them together?Complete
