But there are consequences to falling for a celebrity…dangerous ones!

Sparks fly where Shane least expects them, stirring up laughter, temptation, and a rush of feelings that knock him off his feet. With every teasing glance and stolen moment, Shane finds himself pulled into a world of possibility he never dared to imagine back in the halls of his old school. What begins as a chance reconnection quickly becomes something bigger, something life-shaking, and Shane isn’t sure if he’s ready—or if he can resist.

But Jace does not play by rules, especially when it comes to her. The pull between them is fierce, addictive, and impossible to ignore. Every glance lingers, every touch feels charged, and every step away becomes harder than the last. As tension builds and control slips, Amara must figure out where she stands in a connection that feels as thrilling as it is overwhelming.
