She wasn't supposed to meet someone like him.
He wasn't supposed to be her undoing.
It's 1995, Joah Harrigan is the brash, enigmatic frontman of the biggest band in the world, and Ysolde is the iconic face of a generation. She's who people write their songs about-the kind of girl who could ruin a man.
He doesn't fall, and she doesn't chase. But from the moment they meet, it's headfirst, reckless, and inevitable.
Too much, too fast, too consuming.
Loving Ysolde makes Joah feel alive, but it also makes him feel trapped. Her star burns just as bright as his, and he doesn't know how to be with someone he can't control. The more he wants her, the more he resents her for it.
But fame is corrosive, and so is love. Neither Ysolde nor Joah were built to survive both, because some loves don't end-they can't-so they just destroy you.
