From the outside, Olivia Macomb looks like she leads a charmed life. She’s an up-and-coming influencer who is an heir to the Macomb family fortune, and about to start a lifestyle brand with her childhood sweetheart, Jeff. Then her world gets blown apart by her longtime boyfriend leaving her the morning of their website launch. Not only has he left, but the business she created is all in his name and she’s been left with nothing to show for all her hard work. Now she has to pick up the pieces and find out who she is on her own.
Enter Walker Vinton, the indie pop star who used to date Olivia’s close friend, Paige. When their school throws a big event, Paige asks Walker to be Olivia’s date to give to the gossip bloggers something else to talk about other than Olivia’s broken dreams.
Walker ends up coming to Olivia’s rescue in more ways than one at the party, and a twist of events leads to the two embarking on a fake relationship. Walker and Olivia wind up becoming best friends and she realizes he’s the boyfriend of her dreams.
He helps her build both her brand and her self-esteem back up. Walker even helps her start a new business. However, the lines begin to blur as Olivia’s feelings for Walker are very real. The two share intimate conversations and dreams, but what’s real and what’s fake in this starry world?
Stars in the City is a series of interconnected standalone books.

Ali's Notes:
Fake dating!!!! My favourite trope ahhhh. Plus pop star x influencer sounds intriging.
I love interconnected standalones and know I will eat this series up.

Lament Academy is a place for the forgotten, the troubled, the unwanted. Abby never wanted to be here, but she wasn’t given a choice. The halls are cold, the whispers never stop, and something about this place feels wrong.
Her roommate, Raven, listens to the floorboards like they might answer. The other students watch her like they know something she doesn’t. And Ethan… Ethan looks at her like he’s waiting for her to remember something she’s long forgotten.
But the longer Abby stays at Lament, the more the lines between dreams and reality blur. Shadows stretch where they shouldn’t. Time slips through her fingers. And the whispers—soft, familiar, unrelenting—keep calling her name.
Something is keeping her here.
And it won’t let her go.

Ali's Notes:
Wooow the blurb for this one is SO engaging. Definitley something to look forward to - I am fascinated by the roommate Raven!

Julian
Deals are simple—a trade, a price, a soul collected. I don’t question. I don’t regret. Mortals sign their blood away, and I take what’s owed.
Ophelia Arden was just another contract. Her father wanted power, and I delivered. I stole her empathy, her expression, the raw emotion in her art—and gave it to her sister. One gained everything. The other was left empty.
I wasn’t meant to care, wasn’t meant to feel anything at all. But then I saw her, and my soul snapped into place.
She belongs to me, though she doesn’t know it. If she ever finds out the truth, she’ll never choose me.
I have to make her mine before the clock runs out—before fate decides for both of us.
Because when time is up, I don’t just lose a soul.
I lose her.
Ophelia
I don’t remember what it’s like to cry. Not since my mother died. Not since my father replaced me with something shinier.
I still love. Still ache. Still feel—too much, too deeply—suffocating under the weight of it. But one day, it just… stopped.
My art went silent. The emotions burned inside me, but my hands wouldn’t move. My expression was gone.
Then he appeared.
Julian Duvain watches me too closely, like he sees something no one else does. Like he understands what I am, even when I don’t.
I don’t know what he wants.
But men like him don’t enter your life without leaving destruction in their wake. And if I let him in, I’ll never escape.
When demons make deals, there’s always a cost. Love was never part of it. But even the damned have something to lose.
Some bargains can’t be broken. Some debts can’t be undone.
And some souls were never meant to be free.
