THE SKY AT NIGHT
heroin heartbreak book 1
Grief doesn’t just break you—it remakes you.
Ty McInnis is a rock star unraveling. After the death of his father threatens to crack open old wounds, he retreats to The Overlook, a discreet, high-end wellness retreat tucked into the Pacific Northwest wilderness. It’s supposed to be a break from the spotlight. From guilt. From himself.
Hali Torsten has been sent away like a problem to be solved. Groomed to carry out a family legacy built on lies, she’s burned every bridge she’s ever crossed. Exiled by a mother that would rather forget her than deal with her, she’s angry, guarded, and unwilling to be anyone’s redemption arc, least of all her own.
At The Overlook, their paths collide with friction, fire, and an uneasy familiarity. He’s used to people wanting him for his fame. She doesn’t even know who he is. What begins as contempt becomes connection—fragile, honest, and terrifying in its intensity.
In the quiet spaces between grief and guilt, Ty and Hali are forced to face themselves, their pasts, and the possibility of something real. But healing isn’t linear. Redemption isn’t easy. And love doesn’t always wait until you're ready.
Set against the backdrop of rain-slicked pines, late-night confessions, and music that says what words can’t, The Sky At Night is a slow-burn romance about grief, healing, and choosing love even when you’re convinced you don’t deserve it. This story is perfect for readers who crave emotional depth, character-driven romance, and the kind of healing that comes one hard-won breath at a time.
THE SEA AT DAWN
heroin heartbreak book 2
Trauma doesn’t just haunt you—it reshapes you.
Vannessa Yi knows survival isn’t the same as living. After escaping the man who stole her safety, she’s trying to carve out a life of her own. Los Angeles offers distance. Breathing room. And the hope that this time, she’s finally out of his reach. But the past rarely stays quiet, and some scars don’t fade in the dark.
Ryan Kessworth has spent years trying to outrun the ghosts of his childhood—on stage, on tour, in the arms of strangers. Silence has never been comfortable. Around Vann, it’s different. She moves with a quiet grace, slowly letting him in.
And the closer they get, the harder it is to hold back.
In the stillness that lives between hesitation and hope, Kess and Vann must learn what it means to be seen, how to trust, and that intimacy is its own kind of courage. When the past resurfaces with a chilling threat, Vann is forced to choose: run, or fight for the life and love they both deserve.
Set against the glow of city lights, breathless uncertainty, and stolen moments where closeness is earned, The Sea At Dawn is a slow-burn, trauma-informed romance about resilience, connection, and finding light in the darkest moments. Perfect for readers who crave emotional depth, character-driven healing arcs, and love stories where choice and courage are everything.
PRAISE FOR THE SKY AT NIGHT
"Oh angsty goodness. A broken rockstar and a rich girl with a giant chip on her shoulder and an attitude to match is always a good start. This book broke my heart and rebuilt it all in one. It’s not your typical rockstar romance.
This was a great story about taking time to heal your self, overcoming challenges and not always taking the easy path.
Triggers abound so read/listen with care if you have them. But this is a beautifully tragic story that left me feeling all the feels."

"Samantha Lovelock has unintentionally blown my mind! The Sky At Night is an enemies-to-lovers, rockstar romance but without your conventional rockstar vibes.
It’s these hidden gem’s that jump out at me and for a very good reason. Lovelock takes you on a emotional journey of loss, love, and healing wrapped up in 358 pages of pure perfection.
From the very first page this author’s writing had me in complete and utter reverence. She writes from the heart and dominates your soul."
"This is Hali's book...Hali from Fragile Things.
The unredeemable mean girl.
But Samantha Lovelock pulled her into the orbit of the world's most eligible rockstar and well she pulled me in too.
They needed a place to heal. They needed to work through their issues. They needed each other.
But it's not easy to change who you've been molded to be and it's not easy trusting when you spend your life in the spotlight.
I loved every minute. I loved the side characters—Kess and Mari and Vann. I didn't want it to end."
