đźš‚ Fallin' For Ya

Release Date: TBA


What happens when your harmless subway crush turns into a full-blown medical emergency and an accidental engagement?


Meet Alexia "Lexi" Jackson. For 365 days, her daily commute ritual was simple: admire the towering, dark-haired stranger from exactly five feet away, dream up a picture-perfect future together, and memorize his favorite breakfast order at the diner where she works.


When Andrew Simpson is ruthlessly pushed onto the train tracks, Lexi doesn't freeze. She jumps. In a split second of pure adrenaline, she drags him from the brink of death, only for Andrew to slip into a deep coma.


When a well-meaning nurse mistakes Lexi for his fiancée in the chaotic ICU, Andrew's fiercely protective, loving family opens their arms to welcome her. Suddenly, Lexi is no longer a lonely stranger looking in from the outside; she’s the hero "fiancée" spending the holidays with the legendary Simpson clan.


She only meant to give a grieving mother a few hours of peace. But as the days bleed together, the guilt of the lie grows heavier and so does her undeniable bond with the family.


When Andrew finally opens his eyes, will the truth tear them apart, or will he realize the girl who fell for a ghost is the one he's meant to wake up for?


đź“– Tropes You'll Love:

While You Were Sleeping Twist: A classic trope flip where she saves the guy and handles the accidental fake engagement.


Found Family: A lonely heroine embraced by a big, warm, slightly chaotic family during the holidays.


Coma to Lovers: He might start out asleep, but he definitely ends up with the girl.


Subway Crush / Secret Devotion: High-stakes romantic tension born from a year of silent pining.
