Novel Web & Cerita Bully First Love Contemporary

Ninety days. One summer contract. Plenty of time to make some questionable decisions. Tessa came to town for one thing: the role of a lifetime. Landing the lead is everything she's worked for, and if she can survive ninety days of rehearsals, performances, and backstage drama, it could change her future. Then she meets Danny. Tall, dark-haired, ridiculously attractive, and her leading man. A summer showmance with him wouldn't be the worst way to spend three months. There's just one problem: Danny barely seems to notice her. And the returning cast's inner circle has made it painfully clear that the new girl who walked in and landed the lead isn't welcome. Enter Jay. Blond, annoyingly fit, and absolutely not her type, the local dancer invites her paddleboarding after rehearsal. One chaotic afternoon turns into late nights, river bars, bad decisions, and Tessa constantly asking the same question: What are we doing tomorrow? With Jay, summer is easy. Backstage, it's anything but. Claire, Tessa's understudy, seems determined to prove Tessa never deserved the role in the first place. The whispers are getting harder to ignore. And just when Danny finally starts giving Tessa everything she thought she wanted, she discovers her leading man might not be on her side after all. Then there's the one rule Tessa absolutely cannot afford to break. No relationships between cast members. Getting caught could cost her the lead and the dream she came here for. Danny is supposed to be the guy she wants. Jay is supposed to be her safe haven. But somewhere between rehearsals, secrets, stolen nights, and a cast waiting for her to screw up, Tessa starts falling for the one person she never planned on wanting. The contract ends in ninety days. Getting caught could end her dream a lot sooner.

But when he overhears a moment no one was meant to witness, he realizes the truth: the girl everyone overlooks is barely holding on. As Kade steps deeper into her shattered world, their connection becomes a lifeline. But secrets run deeper than he imagined, and when Maren goes missing, no one believes she’s worth finding—except him. Fighting time, silence, and the lies that built her cage, Kade refuses to give up. Because sometimes, saving someone means proving they were never invisible at all. A heartbreaking, haunting, and ultimately hopeful story about survival, truth, and what it really means to be seen.

“I don’t care anymore. I have friends now. I’m sure you made plenty in London.” She didn’t look affected at all. The coldness of it actually made me shiver. “You’re being immature.” “You’re an asshole.” “Watch your tone. I’m still your boss.” “My apologies, Mr. Montgomery,” she said, quiet now. “Don’t I get a welcome-back hug?” I asked, hoping, now that we’d finally said something real, she’d give an inch. Jasmine Ray and Japheth Montgomery were best friends before they were anything else — before four years of silence turned two children into strangers wearing grown-up names. Then he comes home. As her boss. Japheth is handed a company in crisis, a rival who wants to watch him fail, and the one person he never stopped thinking about, sitting behind a desk with a stranger’s coldness in her eyes. Jasmine is handed something worse: a father who’s spent nine years reminding her what she owes this family, and a man she trusts turning that debt into a weapon. Because someone close to them needs one thing — a signature, one document, one moment of Japheth’s total trust — and he knows exactly how to make Jasmine get it for him. She has one impossible choice: protect her family by becoming, once again, exactly what she swore she’d never be to Japheth again. Or risk everything to tell him the truth, and pray he doesn’t throw her out of his life a second time. This time, staying quiet isn’t safety. It’s the same mistake that cost her everything once already.
