A slow-burn rockstar romance where the spotlight is fake, the sparks are real, and one staged affair risks turning into something dangerously true. As the youngest daughter of a legendary music family and sister to a member of Manic at Midnight, Mercury Creed is determined to prove she belongs in the industry on her own terms. When the band’s lead singer, Asher Knight, disappears after a career-ending scandal, she is the last person anyone expects to go after him. But she does and ends up stranded in the Scottish countryside, rescued by the one man she has secretly wanted for years. Asher walked away from fame and the life he built in America, retreating to Blackstone House and the duty he never wanted as heir to an earldom. His family offers a solution to repair his a strategic marriage. Mercury suggests something better. A fake relationship, three months, and a carefully crafted image. What begins as an arrangement starts to feel a little too real, and the attention around them becomes harder to control. Because this time, the spotlight isn’t just watching. It’s following, and Mercury may be the one who pays the price. Get caught in this moody, fame-meets-family romance where secrets simmer, sparks fly, and the biggest scandal might just be falling in love. Perfect for fans of fake dating, forced proximity, royal romance, best friend’s sister, and opposites attract. Grab your copy!
