He’s the man the music world forgot.She’s the one it refuses to forgive.
When thirty-eight-year-old former rock legend turned producer Quentin Russo agrees to help salvage the career of Raine Dennison—a Gen Z pop-punk star clawing her way back from public collapse—he expects a paycheck and a shot at professional redemption.
What he doesn’t expect is her.
Raine’s talent is undeniable. So are the scars she hides beneath her bravado. And, as Quentin pushes her to tell the truth in her music, he finds himself confronting the very demons that once destroyed his own career.
Their creative chemistry is volatile.
Their attraction is reckless.
And the label has a plan to exploit it.
They want a fake romance to sell the comeback.
But real feelings don’t follow a well-laid-out plan.
In an industry that feeds on spectacle, where one mistake can go viral and forgiveness is never guaranteed, falling for each other could cost them everything—or force them to decide what’s really worth losing.
Break the Girl is a raw, emotional rockstar romance perfect for fans of A Star Is Born and Jamison’s Wilder Love.
“They canceled all my tour dates and threatened to not record the third album…and that’s why they sent me here.”
Raine clasped her hands together in her lap again and let out a small breath. Although Quentin had been quiet, she had no doubt he was judging her—and maybe even believing she was full of shit.
When she looked up, he finally spoke. Even though his voice was quiet, it felt like thunder. “Was there ever a time, through any of that, where you felt like you could say no?”
Two tears dropped at almost the same time, but she pursed her lips together, forcing them to stop quivering. And then she said, “No. And I know the media had a heyday with what happened at the concert, saying my partying had finally gone too far—but that wasn’t fucking it. Obviously, they hadn’t listened to a goddamn thing I’d said.” Letting out a long breath, feeling like now she was in control, she shifted her eyes from Quentin to her hands again. “They just couldn’t see that I was trying to escape my reality. Instead, it was just a big fucking joke.”
When she looked up at Quentin again, he gave her a soft nod, his eyes telling her that he believed her—and he saw her.
