Since then Bree is all grown up and trying desperately to move away from her former good girl image. Just like many other child stars before her, she's somewhat of a cliché now. A wild child.

While also getting addicted to each other's company in the process. *** TW: will contain sexual situations, including an attempted SA, strong language, drugs use, etc..

In the summer of 2002, Nicole Williams is the fashion industry's newest obsession-a rising Australian supermodel and freshly signed Victoria's Secret Angel. But just as her star begins to rise, rumors start swirling about a scandalous fling with a married designer. Her team needs a distraction, and fast. Enter Eminem, the biggest rapper on the planet, fresh off The Eminem Show and gearing up for the release of 8 Mile. With drama brewing around his ex, his rivals, and his public image, his PR team sees an opportunity: a clean-cut, high-fashion "girlfriend" could soften his edge just enough. When Nicole and Eminem are spotted talking at a Manhattan afterparty, their teams seize the moment-and the two agree to fake a relationship. Just for a few months. Just to help each other out. What starts as staged dates, red carpet hand-holding, and photo ops quickly becomes something much harder to fake. Despite coming from opposite worlds, Nicole and Marshall begin to connect over the things no one else sees-fame's isolating pressure, complicated pasts, and the fear of being known too well. Nicole forms an easy friendship with D12, earning their respect for being real, while Marshall wins over Nicole's inner circle-her fierce best friend Amber Jones and ride-or-die New Yorker Danika Brooks-who all start to wonder if this "act" is fooling anyone at all. In a world where everything is curated, posed, and sold to the highest bidder, what happens when the only real thing is the one thing they swore was fake? A story of loyalty, vulnerability, and unexpected love in the most unexpected spotlight.

Lenika Shakur is a protégé of Dr. Dre as well as a younger half sister to the legendary late rapper Tupac Shakur. Ever since Pac's untimely death, Dre has taken her under his wing and looked after her. Lenika also has a dream of making it as a rapper one day as well, all to honor her late brother and make him proud. And Dre, he has no problem with that, he is all for it and supports her decision 100 percent. The only problem is that Dr Dre has another protégé now also. And his name is Marshall Mathers. An up-and-coming white rapper from Detroit Michigan with a troubled past whose skills are undeniable and unmatchable by anybody else in the rap game, so Dre takes Marshall under his wing as well. Which is exactly how Marshall and Lenika meet. By an unexpected encounter in one of the rooms at the Interscope building that changes it all for the both of them because they instantly fall in love. The problem is that their mutual mentor, Dr Dre, doesn't want that. For either of them, especially Lenika. He's got a whole lot of respect for Marshall. When it comes to being a hard working man in the rap game that is. Dre truly loves the kid, Marshall is like his little brother or something. But he also loves Lenika too. And knowing all of the personal issues that Marshall comes with, Dre wants him nowhere near Lenika romantically. Simply because he doesn't want Marshall to ruin her character. Ruin her as a person. Being that Lenika is innocent, and Marshall is totally corrupted. Do you think that would stop either Marshall or Lenika from being attracted to each other though??
