But when the trapping of his fame intrude and the reality of dating a rock star hits her again, Liss risks falling into bad old habits - running away when things get hard.

But a chance meeting with an old friend changes everything and provides new perspective, reminding her of what really matters - the love that she and Joe built together. It's stronger than any petty argument, and worth fighting for, even if the whole world conspires against them.

Joe flashed his crooked grin, the one that turned me into jelly every time. A blindfold. For your surprise.

What? We’re in New York. It was on my plane ticket. And a lot of signs. The surprise is ruined.

He chuckled. Just go with me on this, okay?

I arched an eyebrow.

Don’t you trust me, Liss?
