Kissing the Opps: A Serialized Novel

They hate each other. The blogs say so. The fans live for it. So why does it feel like something else when they're alone?Romi Dulce: Ten years on top. Zero tolerance for threats. She's the blueprint, she's everything, and she's not about to let some new-generation upstart take what's hers.Cam Wolfe: Genre-bending. Openly queer. Unapologetically weird. She's not here for Romi's crown. She just wants to make her music and maybe-maybe-get the validation she's been chasing since she was a teen listening to Romi's albums on repeat.Their feud is good for headlines. Cam can't stop paying attention to Romi. Romi can't stop paying attention to Cam. They call it annoyance. A grudge. An unresolved problem. They tell themselves they're keeping score, staying vigilant, refusing to let things go. But most people don't take up that much space in your head. Most people don't make your pulse jump before they've even spoken. The pull is already there, running underneath every argument and every dirty look. Neither woman recognizes it for what it is. Yet.
