He's spent his life trying to outrun the storm. She's the calm he's been searching for.
Ramona Hendrix has always followed the rules. She built the steady career, lived the safe life, and now feels like she's slowly suffocating. The only place she comes alive is at a Nashville music venue on the weekends, where the thrum of guitars and the chaos of live shows remind her what it feels like to breathe.
When she's offered a last-minute chance to hit the road with Atlas Obsidian, a gritty emo rock band in need of a merch girl for their summer tour, it's spontaneous, wild, exactly what she needs. But she fears the reckless decision might disappoint the people she cares about most.
Atlas Obsidian frontman Elias Hawthorne is magnetic on stage and mysterious off of it. With lyrics that hint at a haunted past and a silence that speaks louder than any song, he keeps everyone, even his bandmates, at a distance. Ramona is intrigued, drawn to the rawness in his voice and the way his eyes seem to carry the weight of untold stories.
As long drives and late-night load-outs blur the line between strangers and something more, Ramona finds herself falling into a secret romance with Elias. It's intense, unexpected, and impossible to ignore. With every mile, she uncovers more of the truth he's buried behind his guarded exterior.
But Elias's past isn't finished with him yet. And as the ghosts he's spent years outrunning threaten to catch up, Ramona must decide if she's brave enough to stand in the fire with him, or if this summer was only ever meant to burn.
He is chaos and shadow. She is serenity and light. Together, they just might learn how to survive the storm.
This book is so much more than a mere rockstar romance. It’s an experience where you’re completely immersed, transported and lost into a world of music — something only a true lover of music could portray and execute into words.

From the very beginning, it felt like I was being pulled straight into a world that understands what it means to feel like you don’t quite belong anywhere — until you find a scene, a sound, a place that finally makes sense of the chaos inside you.

Though I was more of the pop fangirl, I still loved some emo bands back in the day, and it was every girl’s dream to be picked to work with the band. Elias is a tortured soul, but there are people who see the good in him, and will always remind him of that.
