When Lyla's band finally gets their big break with a record deal, the last complication she needs is Tom Carter—the irresistible rock scene's most notorious playboy—stepping in as their tour manager. But as they're forced together on the road, these two guarded people discover that beneath Lyla's walls and Tom's charm lies an unexpected connection neither saw coming. With sparks flying between them and genuine friendship blooming in the most surprising way, they'll have to decide if they're brave enough to let each other in. It's a delicious enemies-to-lovers journey filled with banter, vulnerability, and the kind of chemistry that makes you believe in second chances.

Electric tension meets raw vulnerability on the road. Dark indie rock collides with sensual R&B and moody pop—think Arctic Monkeys, The Neighbourhood, SZA. Tension builds from guarded walls to passionate surrender. Anthemic, sultry, unapologetic.
