Taylor and Travis.
Jennifer and A-Rod.
Marilyn and Joe.
When a professional athlete and a megawatt star fall in love, the world becomes obsessed...
Now it's time to meet Lacey and Jimmy.
With four chart-topping albums, Lacey Logan is a superstar whose life no longer feels like her own, her every move photographed, videoed and dissected. Lacey skilfully governs her narrative throughout it all, an expert at showing fans and paparazzi only exactly what she wants them to see. But when she discovers her boyfriend is hiding some devastating secrets, she begins to lose her confidence, and her control over her own story.
Then big shouldered baseball player Jimmy Hodges walks into the bar where she's venting to a friend. With his shaggy beard and unfashionable button-down, Jimmy is the opposite of the picture-perfect guy Lacey thinks she wants. And yet she finds herself drawn to him. For the first time in her life, Lacey's doing things she wants to do, not what she thinks she should be doing.
But following her desires comes with its own risks. Lacey and Jimmy are polar opposites, and starting a relationship with him could damage everything she's worked so hard for. So why can't she get him out her head?
It's a LOVE STORY. Readers are falling head over heels for Lacey and Jimmy's romance...

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Cotugno (Birds of California) delivers a sweet and spicy romance that feels ripped from the headlines about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Internationally known pop star Lacey Logan and pro baseball player Jimmy Hodges meet cute at a hotel bar in Manhattan and start a very newsworthy romance. As a teenager, Lacey had a photo of the then-rookie hanging on her bedroom wall—but that was before she became the most famous musician in the world, or "the benevolent dictator of a densely populated nation comprised entirely of screaming girls," as Jimmy, who is five years older, opines. Jimmy, who's insecure about his age and impending retirement, struggles to understand what she sees in him. Meanwhile, Lacey's most recent relationship went down in flames after her live-in boyfriend got another woman pregnant and revealed a well-hidden cocaine addiction, so she's understandably a little cautious about men—but she can't resist Jimmy's charisma and self-deprecation. Though their chemistry is immediate, how will they build a relationship when they're rarely in the same time zone? Cotugno answers that question with some creativity and plenty of spice and gives readers a tantalizing peek into the world of the rich and famous, with both the perks and the downfalls illustrated in painstaking detail. Readers won't be able to resist this charmer.
