Stay This Way Forever
A Christmas in Manchester and a New Year's Eve to remember.
"You’re Emma. I’m Liam. And for the next decade—hell, maybe longer—we’re stuck with each other."
- Liam Teller
“Get up! It’s motherf%&$ing Christmas, bitches!”
- Dan Teller
An emotionally charged, intimate, slow-burn Christmas with the Hartgrave Tellers in Manchester, UK as they wrangle with fame, family, and their found-family dynamics.
They were never supposed to fall for each other. Not when the world was watching.
​
After a whirlwind first tour catapults indie rock band The Hartgrave Tellers into global stardom, Emma Hartgrave and Liam Teller find themselves staring down the next ten years of their lives—bound by an eight-album mega-contract, an intense fanbase, and a love story they’re not allowed to tell.
​
As the band returns to Liam’s hometown of Manchester for a “low-key” Christmas, media frenzy ignites over their undeniable chemistry. In a scramble to preserve the band's image and keep the press from spinning a fairytale romance into a PR disaster, Emma and Liam are forced to play the part of platonic bandmates—even as their private history and unresolved feelings threaten to crack the surface.
​
With holiday chaos, nosy exes, cinnamon buns, and secret songs written late at night, Emma and Liam must navigate the impossible pressure of fame, the fragility of ambition, and the one thing no contract can control: the truth of what’s between them.
​
Because in the spotlight, everything is curated.
But behind closed doors?
They’re each other’s person.
And that might be the most dangerous truth of all.
