Jo I’m not bad; they just write me that way. That’s what I tell myself—the lie I peddle in interviews. If they want a bad girl, I can be their bad girl. Their villain. “Everyone loves a scandal. And you’re the queen of scandals..” Years ago, I broke the heart of the biggest pop star in the world. And then I became the Sexiest Man Alive’s biggest regret. I am not that venomous girl anymore. But I know a life-changing role when I see one. “At his name, my heart stills. The man I hate and want. The bane of my existence…” Being Tristan Kane’s on-screen love interest will be good for my career. And bad for my heart. For him? I aim to devastate both. Tristan The world thinks it’s easy being the son of Hollywood royalty. But they don’t know the burdens I wear. Or the regrets in my chest—that all say her name. “We will be nothing more than co-stars. Not friends. Not anything more...” Loving Josephine Ouellette goes against my late father’s wishes. Fits into my meddling manager’s plans. And pisses my sister off. “...forget the world, they can’t have this moment. This is our story, and no one gets a say in it.” But I’m tired of living in his shadow. Living for their games. I fell in love with a villain. And no one loves harder than the scorned.
She is so pure, this version of you. But I know the real you. International Popstar Charley Otto abides by two rules to protect his sanity while living in the spotlight. 1: Don’t believe anything you read online. 2: Leave the past behind.

I want to be some version of the person she wrote, even in all his imperfections. Desperate to find the identity of his secret admirer, Charley hires a private investigator who finally gives him the name of the woman he deserted over a decade ago. And upon arrival at Scarlette Shannon’s book signing, the two artists realize the spark they felt that night never burnt out. Rewrite it any way you want. Fiction and reality rarely meet in the middle. And we were reality. As Charley and Scarlette’s second chance fractures under the microscope of fame, threats from a shadow in their past escalate—threatening to expose the secrets Scarlette hoped would stay buried. And all love affairs have to face the truth eventually.

Severin It feels like I’ve been in love with Bryan Winthrop my entire life. Before he kissed me in front of the entire school. As he danced with her the night of our senior prom. After his younger brother, Ben, made me smile through my tears. “It’ll never work with him. He will never leave her…” It’s been more than ten years since I let myself fall for the boy whose heart wasn’t mine. And the Prom King’s lips are finally mine to kiss. “When I came back here I wasn’t expecting to see you, and when I did, I felt this tumble…” But he’s still keeping me in the shadows. As his younger brother breaks me open in the day. Ben You shouldn’t covet whom your brother desires. Our pastor father would say he taught me better than that. But I knew over ten years ago my brother didn’t deserve her. And nothing’s changed since she came back into both our lives. “You think what you felt for my brother back then was love, but what I felt can’t be the same?” I’m still the one who makes her laugh— the one who challenges her. And he’s still the one treating her like a dirty little secret. “You really are a watercolor, Severin Thompson. I can read you…” You shouldn’t covet whom your brother desires. This summer, I’ll remind him of that.
