She prosecutes war criminals. He sells out stadiums.

• Reverse Age Gap (33F / 21M) • Powerful Prosecutor x Pop Star • He Falls First • Forbidden Secret Romance • Devoted Single Mom

He has the world at his feet. But he is on his knees for her.

Olivia Ambrosia makes calculated decisions. In her life as a devoted single mother and an international human rights prosecutor, there is no room for mistakes or impulses.

Curtis Goodwin is everything she cannot afford to want.

He is twenty-one. A gorgeous pop sensation with a reputation for reckless excess: models, mansions, and social media chaos. But the night they meet, Olivia sees past the spectacle to something she did not expect. She sees a young man suffocating in the spotlight, desperate for something real.

And he finds it in her.

Olivia is brilliant, principled, and moves in a world of genuine power. For the first time in his life, Curtis wants something beyond fame. He wants to be worthy of her.

What begins as resistance for Olivia becomes surrender. She discovers he is not the manufactured celebrity she assumed, but vulnerable, evolving, and falling for her with an intensity that both terrifies and thrills her. He trades the parties for patience, the models for maturity. He is obsessed with becoming the man she deserves.

But in Olivia’s world, reputation is everything.

Loving him in the open would compromise her credibility and put the career that defines her at risk.

For Curtis, staying hidden becomes unbearable. He wants the world, and every powerful man in her orbit, to know she’s his.

When Curtis’s need to claim her publicly collides with Olivia’s need for privacy, something has to give...but what will it cost them?

The Muse is the explosive start to the Muse Trilogy. Expect a powerful woman who commands the room, the younger man who worships the ground she walks on, and a passion that threatens to burn it all down.
