Two hearts. One unfinished song. Five years of silence.
Lost Frequency is a slow-burn, second-chance romance about Miles Maddox, a music-tech senior who swears he's moved on, and Elara ("Elle") Reyes, the singer he never stopped hearing.
Five years ago, their duo Lost Frequency won Lakeview High's Battle-of-the-Bands. A backstage kiss photo went viral, families exploded, and their most personal track-Track Six-was left corrupted and unfinished. Miles left town that night. Elle stayed and learned to live with the echo.
Now Miles is back to record hometown sounds for his senior project-strictly business, no detours. But Zane Harper, the owner of Afterglow Records (the local vinyl café), secretly enters Lost Frequency into the Riverside Summer Music Festival-with "Track Six (Live)" on the lineup.
Run-ins at Afterglow, late-night rehearsals in the Echo Tunnel (a rain-slick underpass that sings everything back), and the four-note hook they can't forget pull Miles and Elle into the same orbit again. With Grant Maddox pushing "stable future" on one side and Elena Reyes guarding rent and reality on the other, they make one fragile promise:
Finish the song. Then decide if the rest still belongs to them.
If love is a frequency, they've been out of range. Until now.
Expect: dual POV • secret history • music at the heart (explained in plain, pretty language) • found-again chemistry • a festival-night climax • a true HEA.
