Loving her will ruin my life,
But I'm tired of living a lie.

Mabel Rossi is the heartbeat of The Hometown Heartless.
The famous drummer with fast hands, faster wit,
and a light that shines brightly even from the back of the stage.
She's temptation in lipstick and lace, and I'm just her manager's niece.
Married, invisible, and completely out of place.

Taking the job on tour was supposed to be a harmless adventure.
Now that I'm here, far from home and my husband,
I'm starting to remember who I was before I lost everything,
and I have Mabel to thank for that.

Between stolen glances and whispered truths,
She coaxes me from the darkness,
Until I can no longer hide from the lies I've buried under the life I don't want.

I'm married to a man I've never loved.
She's so far out of reach it hurts to even want her.
But in quiet hotel hallways and backstage corners,
I start to crave things I shouldn't.

Even if it's reckless. Even if it's wrong.
Because with Mabel, I start to feel alive again.
When she touches me, the fog lifts,
And suddenly, I'm not so scared of tearing it all down just to feel the sun.
