Lowen had been through hell and back to get to where she is now - one of the world's best upcoming music artists. But after releasing a few hit singles she knew this wasn't the way to express herself.
She had finally finished her novel. An autobiography, you may call it. Her life's story on paper.
Desperate to do this properly, she moves to the Upper East Side and finds herself one of the best publishing offices around in hopes of publishing her book.
Elijah Black had finally earned all he has worked for and was now the proud owner of Fitzgerald Publishing.
He entered his office like entering a time machine, back to high school. Because there she stood. Winnie Pierce, the girl who ruined his teenager years.
An academic rival he had hoped to leave in the past had meddled her way into his present, hoping he'd help her.
It was the perfect collaboration. Two big names benefitting each other. When paparazzi caught wind of this association too soon, they discovered it's the perfect advertisement for this book.
A fake relationship to keep these two in the spotlight would boost book sales. But how long can they continue pretending to like each other?
Being forced so close together might force them to see each other past their flaws.
Or, it might lead to an overflow of sexual tension.
Or both.
Either way, it's just for the cameras, right?
