When the Lights Fade

By Richard Crawford

Ava Collins never asked for fame.
She wanted a quiet life writing music in the shadows-until a chance opportunity puts her on tour with global superstar Jaxon Wilder, a man adored by millions and trapped in a spotlight he can't escape.

What begins as a creative partnership sparks into something far deeper, far riskier.
Jaxon sees Ava in a way no one else ever has, and Ava discovers the vulnerable, human man behind the legend. But the world sees a scandal.

Within days, Ava is hunted by paparazzi, dragged through toxic headlines, threatened by obsessive fans, and thrown into the violent chaos of Jaxon's fame. When a dangerous stalker gets too close, Ava breaks-pushing Jaxon away to save herself before she loses everything, including her identity.

But Jaxon refuses to let her go.

In a heart-stopping airport confession caught on cameras worldwide, he risks his entire career to win her back. Their reunion sets the stage for a duet the world never saw coming-one that forces them both to choose between the life they know... and the love they can't live without.

As the tour ends and the lights fade, Ava and Jaxon must navigate a new world built not on fear, but on trust, truth, and music that's finally theirs.

A story of love under pressure, courage in the spotlight, and two hearts fighting to stay together when the whole world tries to tear them apart.
