Description de l’éditeur
“Engagingly and intelligently written, this absorbing novel should work as catnip to fashion-obsessed readers.”—Kirkus Reviews
Eve’s time as a fashion model nearly destroyed her — now she’s determined to build a career behind the camera lense. But landing a coveted photography internship brings her face to face with her dark past — just as she’s falling for hot male model Alex.
Eve had it all—emphasis on had. She was a rising star with a modeling contract destined to catapult her to celebrity…until the devastating night when she walked away from everything, everyone in her life. Eve’s worked hard to put her troubled past behind her, and photography’s given her a fresh start. She just never thought her dream internship would force her back into the industry that broke her trust and her heart.
Alex is a regular, good guy from Nebraska, but as an up-and-coming model, he’s learning that appearances are everything. The fake relationship Alex’s agent concocted for Alex and his underage costar? That’ll land them both the hot jobs. But Alex hadn’t counted on falling for Eve, the girl behind the camera.
With careers and love on the line, Eve and Alex are about to prove you may want what you can’t have—but sometimes it’s worth the risk.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Nineteen-year-old Eve Nowakowski once an up-and-coming teen supermodel known as Eve Castle abandoned that career for college at Columbia and a future in photography. While shadowing a famous photographer, Eve is unexpectedly thrust back into the industry she left behind. Meanwhile, Alex Evans, the male model of the moment, is paired up for a photo shoot with Elana, an underage French model; Alex's sleazy, predatory agent (who dated Eve when she was underage herself) expects him to fake a romance or have an actual one with Elana for publicity. As Eve follows her artistic dreams, Alex stumbles through a modeling career he doesn't love while trying to pursue a clandestine relationship with Eve. Cross (the Tempest series) and Perini (a model making his debut as an author) zip between the perspectives of Eve and Alex in fast-paced, play-by-play scenes, with multiple conflicts that threaten to derail their romance. Eve and Alex's integrity in the face of ethical dilemmas, combined with the book's commentary on the exploitation of young models, adds dimension to this love story. Ages 14 up.
