Junie is a shy cosplayer and content creator who finds it difficult to allow others to get close to her. She finds that posting videos online about making costumes fills the void caused by her loneliness.
During a convention, she meets Kian, a fellow cosplayer and content creator who is determined to pull Junie out of her shell. Although the connection she and Kian share is electric, Junie finds herself retreating to her reclusive ways. But Kian is determined to be with her.

“You frustrate me so much,” Kian grumbled, his hand slipping through Junie’s hair as he held her close.
“That’s my line,” she mumbled, sliding her hands around Kian’s sides to rest them on his back. “You’re the one who refuses to listen.”
He quirked a thick eyebrow down at her. “And yet, you’re still here.” 
She wasn’t sure if she wanted to throttle the man or kiss him. “You’re here. Where else would I be?”

Quit Cosplaying with My Heart

"I don't know why it feels like you were gone for months. It was only a couple of days!" 


Junie smirked over at Callie. "It's cause you love me that much." 


Callie was currently sprawled out on Junie's carpet. For once, she didn't insist on doing work while she visited, which didn't happen often since Callie worked at her college campus bookstore while taking classes full-time. She was normally too busy to just lounge around. The girl was currently watching videos on her phone while Junie worked on a dress covered in battle armor. 


"Won't your shifter warrior have a hard time fighting while in a dress?" Callie asked, eyeing the outfit that Junie had on a mannequin torso. 


"It's a battle dress," Junie corrected her, her voice slightly muffled since she was holding a sewing pin in her mouth. She removed it and stuck it through the faux leather and into the fabric of the mannequin.
