Reading Izvi

For fans of Daisy Jones & The Six, George Michael, and Almost Famous.

An M/M friends-to-lovers rockstar romance set in the 80s music industry.

Izvi was born to be a rock star. Liam was born to make sure he actually becomes one. Together with Liam's girlfriend, they form Velvet Concord - a garage band with a once-in-a-generation singer at the front.

But when Velvet Concord explodes, the industry doesn't want Izvi. It wants a straighter, cleaner, more marketable version of him.

Izvi has spent his whole life hiding who he loves. Now he has to hide even more - from the press, from the fans, from himself. And the more famous he gets, the more he pushes Liam away.

This is not just a love story. It's a story about what happens when your dream comes true and it costs you everything.
