Crush 21 (A Standalone Rock Star Romance Book‪)‬

Crush 21 – A steamy, pulse-pounding new adult rock star romance from Rachelle Vaughn

Rock star Cassidy St. Claire lives for the rush of the stage—the lights, the crowd, and the music that keeps her heart beating. As the lead singer of Crush 21, she's at the top of her game, touring sold-out arenas across North America. But when the tour ends, she's forced to return to Red Valley, California, the hometown she's spent years trying to forget. Coming home means facing the ghosts of her past—and the one man she never truly got over.

Lane Sullivan has spent years pouring his soul into running his late father's small-town bar, trading in his dreams of stardom for responsibility. Once destined to be Crush 21's lead guitarist, he walked away from fame to honor a promise—and lost both his future and the girl who inspired his music. Now, Cassidy's back in town, and the chemistry between them hits harder than ever.

But Red Valley isn't the sleepy town it used to be. A deranged stalker has set their sights on Cassidy, and when a shocking murder shakes their circle of friends, the line between love and danger blurs. As old secrets surface and the threat closes in, Cassidy and Lane must confront the past that tore them apart—before a killer decides their second chance is over for good.

Filled with sizzling chemistry, small-town secrets, and rock 'n' roll heat, Crush 21 is a story of first loves, second chances, and the price of chasing your dreams when the spotlight fades.
