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

Audrey’s scream tore through the speaker before I even had a chance to say hello. 


I shot upright, confused, glancing at the clock. 6:03 PM. We were in the middle of soundcheck and I’d stepped out to the hallway for better signal. The day had been normal—great even. Last night was perfect. What the hell could’ve changed overnight? 


"What’s wrong, baby?" I asked, baffled. 


"Don’t you 'baby' me, Andrew! Why? Why? How many times do I have to repeat myself for you to get it through your thick skull?!" 


My voice cracked out too loud, making a couple of heads turn inside the room. My guys were all nearby. I lowered my voice, tried to steady the panic. 


"Calm down and tell me what’s wrong. What the hell did I do?!" 


"I can’t calm down, Drew. Not this time." 


Her voice was trembling but sharp like broken glass.
