Kylie Jenson is not popular nor is she girly. In fact, she's the opposite. She doesn't wear makeup or designer clothes (gasp), she hates shopping (double gasp), and she doesn't know any current 'hot' celebrities. It's the equivalent of social suicide at Waverly High. Good for her, she doesn't care. Kylie just needs her friends, her sarcasm, and her grades. Xavier Monroe is that hot, new celebrity you see on every magazine cover. He's the guy in the movies and tv shows. Everyone worships the ground he walks on. Everyone knows him. Except for Kylie. When Xavier's parents send him to a public school in the middle of nowhere, his first welcome is Kylie yelling at him. What's a celebrity to do? There are problems at every turn in their senior year: stalker paparazzi, crazy fans, an ex or two, and one person slowly falling for the other. But as Kylie's fame increases, who's the one that's star struck? Or more importantly, star stuck?

"Y-you," she stuttered, staring at the handsome man sitting on the sleek black throne, "you're..." He rolled his eyes, waving his hand impatiently and said, "Hades. Come on, say it with me. Ha-des." "Hades," Ariel breathed out, still not believing the sight before her. Every picture she had seen of the gods had not depicted Hades' beauty. The god sitting before her was not a crusty old man with a white beard; no, he was a Calvin Klein model. "Yes," Hades clasped his hands together and grimaced, "the God of Death and riches; that's me." Ariel nodded, still refusing to believe but knowing she had to and Hades' grimace turned even bitter, "And you, darling, will be staying with me for quite some time." ~*~ Cover: _nymphomaniac Published: 8/6/14
