Some hearts never stop singing the same song.
Audrey doesn’t believe in fairytales—especially not the kind where a long-lost pen pal grows up to become a rockstar... and forgets her.

Years later, she’s grounded, thriving in a promising career, and guarding a heart that’s learned not to hope. But when fate throws Drew—now a global sensation and the ghost of her teenage years—back into her life as her new neighbor, everything she thought she'd buried begins to rise.

He’s still magnetic. Still infuriating.
Still the boy who used to call her after every show.

And he remembers everything.

What begins as a cautious reconnection spirals into a slow-burning storm of music, memories, and feelings they never quite had the courage to explore. But Drew’s past is darker than she imagined, and Audrey’s walls are higher than ever.

Can a rockstar with a broken rhythm and a girl who learned to dance alone find harmony again?

Or is it all just… make believe?

Make-believe with my Rockstar

She’s still asleep when the light starts to shift through the curtains. 


I lie still, trying not to breathe too loudly, just watching her. Her back rises and falls against my chest with every slow breath, her cheek smushed slightly against the pillow, lips parted just enough to make my heart twist. Her hair’s a mess — a wild halo against the sheets — and at the roots, I can see her natural color growing in. Soft brown beneath the black. It’s the kind of detail no one else would notice unless they were looking this close. 


She’s curled into me, one leg tangled with mine. Her skin is still warm from everything we did last night — from everything I still want to do. And I want her again. It’s ridiculous, really, how badly I want her, how I could spend the rest of the day rediscovering every inch of her skin just to watch her fall apart again.
