Since she was eight years old, Y/N MacKenzie has dreamed of one thing: New York City. At twenty-four, she finally has it all. A job as the Communications Liaison for Manhattan SVU, a tiny apartment she adores, a growing social media platform, and a city that feels more like home every day. What she doesn't expect is the family she finds along the way. Between late nights at the precinct, FaceTime calls to Australia, unexpected friendships, and a detective who gets under her skin more than she'd like to admit, Y/N is building a life she never imagined. Then Runway Magazine comes calling. Suddenly, Y/N finds herself caught between the career she's worked towards her entire life and opportunities she never saw coming. In a city full of possibilities, she must decide what matters most: the dreams she's chased for years or the people who've become impossible to leave behind. A story about love, friendship, ambition, and finding home in the most unexpected places. The City I Dreamed Of.
