MADNESS: A Masked Rockstar Romance

ANDI For a decade, I've managed to dodge getting assigned to photograph my brother's rock band, Young Decay. That is until one of our photographers tries to get a photo of the band's most elusive and private member. It's only for ten days. Just long enough to capture their Halloween homecoming show run and while they find a permanent replacement. I'm set for home, thinking I can avoid all the fears going home comes with. Fears that I've been running from for years now. I expect the darkness of the past to dig its claws into me and threaten never to let go. However, I don't expect to find someone who sees my darkness not as a flaw but as another beautiful part of who I am. And I especially don't expect that someone to be my brother's best friend, Young Decay's masked bassist, Mads Tourning. Or as I know him... Maddox Keynes MADDOX Since Young Decay's early days, my privacy has been a part of me I've clung to. I'm used to wearing the mask day in and day out, hiding myself from anyone who might want a glimpse. They don't expect to find a monster running from his past, hoping people will forget he even exists. Yet, here I am heading home for our band's Halloween homecoming run. I'm ready to shed my mask and finally breathe a little in front of the people who took me in as a kid, and even to see the woman I've had a crush on for a decade. I never expected to one day have her in my arms, to share the darkest corners of my soul with. And now that I have her... I'll do anything to keep her. Even if it means losing everything.
