I was twenty-one when I first met the sarcastic Australian rock star that took the world by storm with his witty charm. Twenty-two when I wrote a viral tabloid article on his bandmate to pay for the medicine that I needed for life. Twenty-three when I realized my dream job in California was destroying every moral I was raised to believe in. Twenty-four when I accepted that I might have to give up my west coast dreams to return home and admit defeat. And twenty-five when the lead singer of Violet Wonders comes crashing back into my life with an offer I'd be stupid to refuse. When he asks me to marry him, I think it's a cruel joke to get back at me for everything I put his band through. But a signed marriage certificate gets us both benefits. He gets the press off his back, and I get health insurance and a place to stay. But the world doesn't know the real Garrick Matthews like I do, and it's impossible not to fall for the man behind the charade. We agree to stay together for two years before going our separate ways and never looking back. Unfortunately for me, it only takes months before I realize I love the man who will undoubtedly break my heart when all is said and done.
