From The Publisher:
It's a simple enough transaction.
Marisol needs the money, and I need a nice girl to parade in front of the cameras.
No feelings. No strings. No falling for anyone.
I've been clean for months, but my record company's not satisfied. Apparently it isn't enough to only kick a heroin addiction - they're insisting that I find a girlfriend as well.
If I don't, they pull Dirtshine's massive record deal.
It's supposed to show that I've changed my ways, that I've turned over a new leaf, all that rubbish. But I've had it with suit-wearing wankers telling me what I'm to do, so I'm on the verge of telling them to go f*ck themselves.
And then she shows up.
Marisol locks me out of my own concert by accident. She's wearing a suit at a rock show, searching for her lost law school textbook, has no idea who I am...
...and for the first time in years, I'm hooked.
She's smart, driven, and utterly gorgeous. The sort of girl who earnestly believes in following the rules and hates when others don't.
I'm a huge rock star, recovering addict, and general f*ckup.
Our relationship is for show, and that's all. But with every smile, every laugh, and every breathtaking glance at her curves, I want her more.
Two months is all we agreed to. But it's never going to be enough.
