Whiskey Nights and Neon Dreams A haunting memory of Josiah DeMille has shadowed the narrator's life for nearly a decade—he's the one that got away, the ghost in every song and at the bottom of every glass. When he unexpectedly resurfaces, all those carefully buried feelings come roaring back, except now there's so much more between them: dark secrets, shameful lies, and a temptation neither of them has ever been able to resist. As they're drawn back into each other's orbit, they'll have to confront the painful truths that drove them apart and decide if some connections are worth the risk. This is a second-chance romance that's as intoxicating as it is dangerous—perfect for readers who love complicated history and the messy, all-consuming kind of love that changes everything.

A moody blend of dark indie, sultry R&B, and brooding alternative rock. Think late-night confessions, neon-lit bars, and the ache of unresolved desire. Artists like The Neighbourhood, Frank Ocean, and Cigarettes After Sex—sensual, haunting, tinged with regret and temptation.
