Skyline Dreams

In New York City, where steel and glass reach for the heavens, Ethan Cole lives a life scripted for him. The son of a powerful construction magnate, he is destined to inherit the family empire—whether he wants it or not. To the world, Ethan is disciplined, polished, and obedient. But in secret, he sketches in color, dreams in defiance, and hides the one truth he fears could shatter everything: he has never lived a day as his authentic self.

When Ethan secretly enters a national design competition, he expects anonymity. Instead, he is paired with Luca Reyes, a rebellious street artist whose murals electrify Brooklyn with protest and passion. Luca is fearless, unfiltered, and utterly impossible to ignore. Their styles clash—Ethan’s precision against Luca’s chaos—but their partnership sparks something undeniable.

As deadlines loom and their designs push boundaries, so too does the bond between them. What begins as reluctant collaboration becomes friendship… and soon, a dangerous, tender love that threatens to expose Ethan’s double life.

But shadows lengthen. Ethan’s father discovers the betrayal. Investors whisper about scandal. Classmates watch too closely. The family legacy he was raised to protect teeters on collapse.

Now Ethan must make a choice: remain silent and inherit the safe, suffocating empire built for him—or risk losing everything to step into the light with Luca, and finally build a life—and love—that is his alone.

Skyline Dreams is a soaring story of love, art, and the courage to be seen.
