Old Town Symphony

By Milla Holt

Description:

He built his show to launch stars—not fall for one.

Kezia Blair believes true talent shouldn’t need shortcuts. But after years of singing backup and recording anonymous jingles, her shot at a real music career is slipping away. When a last-ditch audition lands her on Starbound, TV’s biggest reality show, Kezia faces a painful choice: chase stardom on someone else’s terms—or walk away for good.

Zach Falconer created Starbound to launch fresh talent—not get tangled up with it. Burned by a fame-hungry ex, he’s determined to protect his show from scandal and his heart from pain.

But Kezia’s passion, honesty, and refusal to play the game shake his carefully controlled world. And the deeper their connection grows, the harder it becomes to protect the lines between love, loyalty, and career.

In an industry where image is everything, can they hold onto what matters most… or will success cost them the truth—and each other?

A soulful, slow-burn Christian romance about integrity, ambition, and the price of staying true.

Book Takeaway:

I hope readers come away reminded that their value isn’t determined by applause, awards, or public opinion. Staying true to who God made you to be—especially when it’s costly—matters far more than chasing success on someone else’s terms.

Why the author wrote this book:

I was intrigued by the idea of two people who are perfect for each other but meet under circumstances that make a relationship nearly impossible. How do you fall in love when the world is watching and your careers are on the line? That tension felt like rich storytelling territory.
