Love is a scorching trail she's afraid to follow... *** Star Matthews knows what she wants in life: everything that her current one isn't.

Thrown together every day in close proximity, Star fights her distracting attraction to Julian who insists that there's more to her than what she shows the world, and that he wants it, all of it, the good, the bad, the beautiful and the broken. When her sins come to light, proving she is no bright star after all, will Julian stand by her side or will he walk away before she can burn him heart and soul? *** Copyright © 2015 by Nina Tippett.

"Make me better." His lips curled into a smirk, his eyes moving over her sculpted body. "But, sweetheart, you're already perfect." If it weren't for her pounding heart, she would have rolled her eyes and replied with a snide remark. But instead, she said, "Make me irresistible. Make me someone better so he wants me." He lifted a brow, using his long index finger to considerably stroke his jaw. "Then it wouldn't be you he'd want. You'd be someone beneath you." "I don't care," she found herself saying. "I just want someone to look at me the way everyone looks at you - like you're something they want." He deeply sighed, nodded his head then turned away from her before saying, "We'll have to eventually break you in then, sweetheart. No one wants an inexperienced lover."
