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

*Caution WARNING - This chapter is heavy, emotionally charged with all the unshared pain of Audrey's and Drew's past. It contains explicit, graphic, rough, but consensual sex, which is a turning point in the story, where the characters finally breathe free of the chains of their shared past and get closure. Read at your own discretion.* 


The slam of the door echoes down the hallway, but it’s not the sound that wrecks me — it’s the absence that follows. The way he left me like this. Half-dressed, thighs trembling, lips swollen, the taste of him still on my tongue. 


I’m sprawled out on the floor like debris. Like the aftermath. 


Maybe that’s what I am — the wreckage of something that should’ve burned down years ago. Something that never got the chance.
