When Broadway's brightest new star steps into the city's spotlight, she anticipates drama, but not danger. Helen Parker, a Hollywood prodigy making her stage debut, finds herself stalked by threats that blur the line between performance and peril. Enter Patrick Lynch, a haunted fire marshal turned reluctant security consultant, whose scars run deeper than the city's oldest secrets. As a string of arsons ignites across Manhattan's underbelly, Helen and Patrick are drawn together by necessity, and something more volatile. From the glittering heights of Midtown suites to the soot-stained shadows of Hell's Kitchen, their worlds collide in a whirlwind of ambition, vulnerability, and survival. In a city where every name burns longer than wood and every secret is one spark away from disaster, Helen and Patrick must learn to trust each other before the final curtain falls. Because in New York, dreams are dangerous, and desires can set the whole world on fire. New York Dreams and Desires is a gripping, atmospheric love story and thriller, a tale of resilience, reinvention, and the courage to claim a future when the past refuses to let go. It is perfect for fans of character-driven suspense, backstage intrigue, and romance that defies the rules.
Maeve Campbell is an American author born to Irish immigrants and raised in the Bronx during the gritty, electric pulse of the 1980s. Her childhood was steeped in storytelling, from the lyrical tales her parents brought from County Clare to the streetwise narratives unfolding on every corner of her neighborhood. That blend of heritage and hustle shaped Maeve into a woman who sees the poetry in chaos and the romance in resilience. After a marriage unraveled under the weight of betrayal, Maeve turned inward, channeling her energy into her career as a personal assistant to a high-powered CBS executive. Behind the scenes of network television, she mastered the art of discretion, diplomacy, and knowing exactly when to speak and when to listen , skills that would later serve her well as a writer. A proud graduate of Fordham University, Maeve now lives on Roosevelt Island in a sunlit apartment overlooking Manhattan, where she shares her space with two cats, a dog named Finnegan, and the occasional friend who knows not to overstay. Her social life is vibrant, peppered with wine-soaked dinners, rooftop conversations, and the kind of friendships that survive both silence and scandal. Maeve began writing in the wake of 9/11, when grief cracked something open inside her. What started as a private act of healing became a public voice for love, loss, and longing. Her romance novels are unapologetically raw , exploring the messy, magnetic pull between people who are broken but brave enough to try again. Whether she's writing about forbidden desire, second chances, or the quiet ache of solitude, Maeve's stories pulse with emotional truth and a distinctly New York rhythm. She writes not just to entertain, but to remind readers that vulnerability is a strength - and that love, in all its forms, is worth the risk.
