America's favorite pop band, Roman Holiday, is done, dead, and so totally last year. For eighteen-year-old rockoholic Junie Baltimore, this is music to her ears. But when she discovers their sexy ex-lead singer hiding out on the boardwalk, her summer vacation becomes the cover story of the year.
She's willing to keep him a secret, but when a sleazy paparazzo offers her the cash she needs to save the bar her father left behind, could she sell out for the chance to save her future? Who is she kidding? That's a no-brainer...but she never planned on falling head over heels for the lead singer.

Captured Hearts │✔
Behind the lens, she found the man behind the fame. Luna Johnson, a sharp-tongued photographer with a knack for sarcasm, lands the opportunity of a lifetime: documenting the international tour of Off the Record, one of the world's biggest rock bands. A lifelong fan of their music-until she meets their infuriatingly smug lead singer, Kai Steele, in an apartment in Monaco. From the moment their paths cross, sparks fly in all the wrong ways. Luna sees Kai as the epitome of everything she loathes: arrogant, reckless, and all too aware of his charm. Kai, however, finds her unshakable wit and refusal to fall for his irresistibly intriguing. Their first meeting sets the tone for what becomes a constant battle of wills, their sharp banter and fiery chemistry impossible to ignore. For Luna, Kai is a maddening contradiction: both infuriating and captivating. For Kai, Luna is the first person to challenge him in years and the one who might just break through his carefully constructed walls. As they clash, collide, and ultimately connect, they learn that love doesn't come without scars.

"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey.
