Summary
At eighteen, Michelle was a troubled single mother navigating an industry that had already failed her when she became lead dancer and assistant choreographer on Five’s Invincible tour. During rehearsals and on the road, she was pulled into a secret romance with J Brown, one that management worked hard to suppress.
Twenty-four years later, Five’s reunion forces the past back into the present. Old desires, unresolved truths, and the damage left behind by the late-90s music industry surface again, leaving Michelle, J, and the rest of the band to confront what was lost, what was hidden, and what still lingers.

Summary
Must read at least to the end of chapter 16 of Part One, Don’t Wanna Let You Go, for this to make sense.
Jason “J” Brown lost everything in September 2001. Five had fallen apart, and most painfully, he lost Michelle—the fiery, red-haired dancer he had practically fallen in love with at first sight. She was the girl he had fought tooth and nail with the band’s managers to stay with, the “Angel in his eyes” he’d immortalized in song, and he never understood why she walked away.
Twenty-four years later, Five’s reunion drags the past into the present, and J comes face to face with Michelle once more.
This is his story: the scars left by the late ’90s music industry, the wounds that never fully healed, and the undeniable truth that some feelings never disappear.
Now, J is about to discover that the woman he lost holds a secret that has been waiting decades to be revealed.

Summary
This can be read either as part of The Invincible Legacy series or apart from it.
It’s January 2025, and for the first time in over two decades, the original lineup is back together in a room. But the reunion isn't all glitz and glamour—it’s a cramped, nondescript Airbnb, a pile of cold pizza boxes, and a looming deadline from management to name the upcoming tour.
As the clock ticks past 2:00 AM, the professional atmosphere evaporates, replaced by the kind of unhinged delirium that only twenty-five years of history can produce. Between the "Dads" worrying about their knees and the "Free Agents" drifting into cosmic frequencies, the group struggles to find a title that fits who they are now.
It turns out that getting back together was the easy part. The hard part is surviving a night of cabin fever, memories, and the mystery of where exactly one member disappears to for twenty years.
