My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Luka Babic is a dazzling performer whose talent electrifies audiences — singing, dancing, and transforming into a vibrant persona under the stage lights. Yet away from the spotlight, he is withdrawn, burdened by self-loathing, and a shadow of his onstage brilliance. Benson Carter, an eternal optimist and devoted patron, is captivated by Luka’s celestial talent and sees the potential for him to become a household name. But Benson also recognizes the pain beneath Luka’s glamour and vows to help him rediscover joy, heal his inner battles, and embrace life beyond performance. Their journey is daunting, but Benson’s determination to unravel Luka’s guarded heart suggests that love, patience, and hope may transform despair into light — proving that nothing worthwhile ever comes easy.
I enjoyed this story about the collision of light and shadow, where talent and despair meet optimism and hope — and where love may be the hardest, yet most rewarding, performance of all. The story explored how identity can fracture between public persona and private reality, and whether love can reconcile those halves. I found this story to be a little hard to follow at times but it was kind of sweet too. I did find the Daddy link to be too contrived at the end of the story. This was an MM story with mature content.
