Publisher Description
The most famous rock star in the world has finally found the one, but secrets from his past threaten to ruin both their lives in this "heart-pounding romance" (Fresh Fiction).
Shane Hawthorne has it all. At least, that's what the headlines say about me. I have millions of fans, awards, more money - and women - than I know what to do with. But what you don't see is the wreckage I've caused. The memories and pain I can't escape, even when I pour them into music and spin them into gold.
I tried to forget. To lose myself in booze and groupies. It didn't work. It hurt me and - worse - it hurt my band. That's the last thing I want to do, so I'm cleaning up my act... starting with Delaney Fraser.
Gorgeous, smart, drama-free, and even nice - Delaney is the perfect "girlfriend." When I'm with her I don't have to pretend. It's like she sees the real me. And I can see a future with her. But that's dangerous. Because the truth is, Shane Hawthorne doesn't actually exist. He's a shield to hide who I really am. Fraud. Runaway. Addict. Murderer.
And it's impossible to love a lie, right?
Customer Reviews
A GREAT rock star romance!
Shane is the lead singer in the rock band Nothing but Trouble, and that's exactly what he is ... trouble! After years of indulging himself in booze, drugs and women he is clean from booze and drugs, but the women are harder to resist. So he has been "hiring" a girlfriend to be at his side to help him through when the band goes on tour. When he meets his "next girlfriend" Delaney, he knows she is different from all the others and he falls head over heels for her. But they both have secrets that could not only rip them apart, but rip their lives apart as well.
This book will draw you in to Shane and Delaney's story and not let you escape their emotional journey. There were times I cried and times I just wanted to shake them but isn't that the sign of a great book when you get emotionally involved. Also there were a few twists that I didn't see coming which was a nice surprise ... I love it when that happens ... there's nothing worse that a very predictable book. I can't wait for the next book ... I knew it would be about Piper and Landon and I'm pretty sure that they have a past. Thanks for the great read Tara!
