Getting into Gleewood Arts, an elite college for the exceptionally talented, was supposed to be Halle’s dream come true. But dreams have a way of turning into nightmares. Her angelic voice becomes a viral sensation overnight, landing her the role of lead vocalist in the Elite 4—a world-famous boy band made up of four irresistibly attractive and gifted young men. The band’s four members are everything she isn’t ready for: magnetic, attractive,talented, and dangerous. Fame brings chaos, and when love begins to blossom, the lines between passion and pain blur. Halle finds herself torn between two of the band’s heartthrobs—both vying for her heart and with secrets that could shatter her. The deeper she falls, the more chilling the revelations becomes. The two boys she’s falling for might be connected to the tragedy that destroyed her family. As fame brings its own toxicity and love turns to betrayal, Halle is thrust into a game of survival where surrender isn’t an option. Will she risk everything to uncover the truth, or will the weight of her past crush everything she’s worked so hard to build? "In a twist of fate, their scars met—one visible, one hidden—and together, they healed... or broke beyond repair.” The stage is set for heartbreak, danger, and an unforgettable melody.
Halle’s POV
Struggling to rise from the hospital bed, weakened and unsteady, Jessie's voice echoed, "Where are you going?" Tears streamed down her face as she pleaded, "Please wait, we need to talk." She held me back, urging me to calm down.
Restlessly, I wandered the hospital, searching for what was never lost—my reflection. Finally facing a mirror, panic seized me.
"I thought it was all going to be over. I'm still the ugly beast, the one in my own story. I thought it was all going to be over."
A gentle squeeze on my hands, tears flowing uncontrollably, and Jessie pulled me into a tight embrace. "I'm never letting you go, Halle. I couldn't protect you, but I won't let anyone hurt you again."
"You're the only one who truly loves me for me, the ugly beast I am," I confessed to Jessie.
“Why are you doing this to yourself? Losing your mind over a tiny error. I wish you could see how perfect you are; you're beautiful just the way you are," Jessie said, and we turned to face the mirror. She smiled at me as I touched the huge scar covering half of my face and managed a fake smile.
"Scars might leave marks, but they keep reminding you of yourself. One day, you’ll heal," She whispered.
