A tabloid photographer gets up-close and sexy with her latest rock star subject in this romance novel by the author of Some Kind of Magic. Celebrities hold zero interest for photographer Jo Wilder. That's a problem, since snapping pics of the stars is how the pretty paparazza pays the rent. So when Jo attempts to catch a money shot atop the broad shoulders of a helpful bystander, the only thing she notices about the stranger she straddles is that he's seriously hot. Only later does Jo learn that he's also Micah Sinclair—one of rock n' roll's most notorious bad boys... Soon Jo is on the verge of getting fired for missing a Micah Sinclair exclusive. Until she's suddenly being pursued by the heartthrob himself. But how can she be sure the musician's mind-blowing kisses are the real deal? Her colleagues claim he's a media whore, gambling on some free PR. But Jo can't help hoping Micah's feeling the same powerful pull she's feeling—a pull so strong, she might get sucked into the media circus herself.

My family didn't have any wealth, so I was "that guy from the wrong side of the tracks."I got into too much trouble, too many fights.I would have been classified as the bad boy, the guy your mother warned you about.And when I transferred to Silver Creek High to finish my senior year, I had one goal-keep my head down, don't let anyone piss me off enough to get into a fight, and graduate.And then she came into my life.Harlow.She was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen, with her shy glances at me, her questions that delved deep. She was the one person, aside from my own mother, who cared about what I thought and how I felt.I knew keeping her as mine probably wasn't smart, because she was far too good for the likes of me. But no one would have her but me.I felt that too strongly to ignore.I probably shouldn't have embraced my feelings for Harlow. She was better off without me. But I was too selfish.I wanted her too much.So screw it.What I felt for her was that crazy kind of love.

Everybody needs someone who gets their crazy Hank Kirby can't catch a break. He doesn't mean to screw up. It just happens. Case in point: his attempt to ask out the girl he likes literally goes up in flames when he spelled "prom" in sparklers on Amanda Carlisle's lawn...and nearly burns down her house, without ever asking her the big question. Hank just wants to pretend the incident never happened. And he might've gotten away with it—except there is a witness. Peyton Breedlove, brooding loner and budding pyromaniac, saw the whole thing, and she blackmails Hank into an unusual friendship. Sure, Hank may be headed for his biggest disaster yet, but it's only when life falls apart that you can start piecing it back together.
