Behind the Veil

Once the world's brightest star, Ariana Calandre lost her band, her voice, and her will to live--all in one devastating night. Physically and emotionally shattered, wracked by survivor's guilt, and convinced her scars make her a monster, she retreats to an isolated farmhouse, and hides behind a veil. Then Lee arrives. Hired to do repairs, Lee asks only for space and a patch of land to camp on. But she brings more than tools. With her books, music, intelligence, and quiet companionship, she begins to crack open Ariana's world. As their bond deepens, Ariana is terrified of being truly seen and clings to her pain--until the day she rediscovers her music and, with it, the spark of her own strength. When she accidentally drops her veil, Ariana must decide whether she will stay hidden forever, or step back into the light and share her heart--and her voice--once more. Behind the Veil is a romance that proves beauty is never lost--it only waits to be found again.
