“Thanks, Larry. I’ll call if I need anything.” “You’d better, sweetie. Take care.” The guy really was a dick most of the time, but he did have a heart in there. It was encased in a thick layer of show-business mentality, but he’d always tried to help me. Even when I was at my lowest,…

“I’d love to say I have a really dramatic and exciting story. Secret agent, searching for aliens, gold prospector? But… I’m the new math teacher at the high school. Pretty boring, really. I grew up in Burkesville, about an hour away.” He extended his hand, “My name’s Ryland Fields. It’s nice to meet you.” Smiling,…

Miles lifted an eyebrow. “It? What do you mean?” I banged my hand on the door. “Emily’s curse.” They all went still. From the look on their faces, I could tell they’d all hoped Emily had been wrong. Honestly, I’d thought it might be over as well. After how things went down last year, we’d…

The minute I saw the last place, I knew. It was love at first sight. The small, cottage-style house had two bedrooms and one bathroom that held a surprisingly large claw-foot tub that looked heavenly.

I ended the call and walked over to the massive window that overlooked Hollywood Hills. From this height, it was beautiful. Down there among the dirt and backstabbing? It wasn’t pretty. Los Angeles had given me a lot, and now it looked like it was going to take its pound of flesh as payment. Over…

“Yeah, that would actually be great.” I spent the next several days reconnecting with my family. To their credit, neither of my brothers asked about the tabloid stuff. Which I very much appreciated. One thing I couldn’t deal with was trying to explain to my brothers why I’d had an orgy with God knows who…

Knight. My stomach seemed to drop out from under me. There was something about that kid that was familiar. I held a hand out. “Can I see that roster?” He handed it to me, and I glanced down at the list of names until I found him. Short stop, Aiden Knight. A quivery feeling hit…

Without answering, Tate leaned out and called across the hall, “Mariah! I… uh… your mom wants to take a walk in the woods. Can you watch the baby?” “Yeah, sure. I guess. Weird, but whatever,” Mariah called from her room. The woods? Oh shit. My skin was burning and itching too much for me to…
