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

Junie opened her eyes, shut them, and then opened them again, but she couldn’t make the items in front of her disappear. Her fairy cosplay was still sitting proudly on the mannequin she had put it on. She rolled over so her back was to the mannequin and her face was pressed against the sofa cushions.  


It had been a full week since her fight with Kian since she broke things off with him. It had also been the longest week of her life. That was probably at least partially because she spent each day roughly the same way. She laid in bed until noon or so, then dragged herself up, ate something, and then laid back down on her phone. She could barely muster up enough motivation to feed and play with Kiara.
