The Secrets We Share

The Secrets We Share is the second book in Olivia Dade's Fandom trilogy (following The Stories We Write). Alex Woodroe is a celebrated actor on the hit series Gods of the Gates, despite privately despising his character's arc in the show's final season and the way it handles toxic relationships — a subject that hits close to home. After a scandal linked to his ADHD-related impulse control lands him in the tabloids, the producers assign Lauren Clegg, quiet and guarded, as his handler.

As Alex tries to close the distance between them, Lauren uncovers the secret he never meant to share: he writes explicit fanfiction about Gods of the Gates under a pseudonym. A romance about celebrity culture, body positivity, and finding genuine connection inside Hollywood's glossy, often superficial world.
