He’s the golden voice of rock. She’s the cursed poet hiding in the shadows.

One year ago, Benedict Boyd and Beatrice Sharpe—Hollywood’s hottest rock couple and co-leads of wildly popular B & B + 3—imploded in spectacular fashion at the legendary Hotel Caliwood. A shattered romance. A designer gown ruined in a rooftop pool. A scandal that nearly destroyed the band.

Then Beatrice vanished, taking her lyrics—and Benedict’s heart—with her.

Now the band is back in Hollywood, desperate to record the comeback album that could save their careers. Benedict may be a musical genius, but without a lyricist, he’s lost. If he can’t deliver songs worthy of their legacy, B & B + 3 will fade into yesterday’s headlines.

That’s when he meets Beast.

Mysterious. Sharp-tongued. Brilliant. The reclusive poet haunting the abandoned library of Hotel Caliwood isn’t what she seems. Beneath her prickly exterior lies breathtaking talent—and a curse cast by a jealous enchantress that has trapped her in a harpy’s form.

Their creative clash sparks into collaboration. Collaboration deepens into connection. And connection begins to feel dangerously like love.

With the help of the hotel’s lingering ghosts and lyrics born of heartbreak and hope, Benedict must decide whether to cling to his glittering past—or risk everything for a love that looks nothing like a fairy tale.

Because breaking a curse takes more than magic. It takes seeing the beauty where no one else dares to look.

And this time, the encore could be forever.
