Shallow
Shiloh
The Higher The
Star…The Harder The Fall
Only the good
die young. But I’ve never been good.
I’ve
lived a life most people only dream about—famous men, expensive booze, and the
finest drugs money could buy. But every vice has its price and living a life of
excess has finally dragged me down, forcing me back to the one place I swore
I’d never return.
We met in high school, but we were far from sweethearts. I
ruined his life and then walked away. Losing everything is bad enough, but
crawling back to people who wish you were dead is a nightmare.
Some
say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Not always.
You
either forgive and forget or fracture and finish.
Cary
Seven years ago, Shiloh West was my world. I gave up my future
for her. Then, I spent every waking moment hating her for it. I’ve followed her
train wreck of a career in the tabloids since she drove out of town with her
nose in the air. The woman is toxic.
The fact that a judge has court ordered her back to town means
nothing to me—except maybe the payback I’ve waited a lifetime to collect. I’m
going to build her up and tear her down.
A better man would walk away. I'm not a better man. She thinks she
has the upper hand. Think again, Starshine.
Beauty is only skin deep, but revenge goes straight to the bone.

one afternoon, I find myself fake engaged with a fake new family. I’m not a
liar, but he assumes the kid is mine. I should set the record straight. There’s
only one problem. My new “fiancé” is a photographer for Tate & Cane. He’s
my “in.”
If I
can hold on to this charade long enough, I can get the job and the man of my
dreams. I’m winging this completely unsupervised. Game on.
