Synopsis: Corroded Coffin is taking the rock world by storm; new music, new interviews, new experiences, new everything. On the flip side of the music world, an up and coming female popstar is taking the pop world by storm. So, what happens when the rock and pop worlds collide?
He's recovering, is lead vocalist and guitar(and good with many other instruments) in a band with his friends, has tattoos, a lip piercing, blue eyes and black fluffy hair, confident, a grumpy lover who's love language is physical touch, calls you Love, drives a huge truck, protective and territorial in the gentlest way possible and falls to his knees for you ?
Mani folds for him.
Imani Shane is new around. New school, new people, new places. At her new school she is introduced to an new friend group that will ultimately change her life in a few ways. Imani is quickly adapted into the group and loved by her new friends. It's not long before she takes a liking to them also but there's one member she hasn't met-Jake Vandle. Hearing his history makes her want to distance from him as much as possible but she can't help being drawn to his dominating and attractive personality.
Jake Vandle is a sexy yet troubled musician and guitarist known for being just that and very much so a charmer which aids in him getting attention from almost every girl he comes across. He and his friends gained popularity within their school and a decent range of social media platforms because of their talent and strive to play their instruments together as a band in the future. Everyone wants a piece of this friend group especially the third oldest. But Jakes friends soon introduce him to a gorgeous black woman that he can't keep his mind or eyes off of.
