King of Her Desire
She's rich, she's famous, she's twice his age--and she can make him a star. Should homeless teen Shoni King leave the family that needs him and the girl who loves him for her fast lane life? EDITORS PICK, JULY 2021, NARomance Awards SHORTLIST 2021. Elliott Weston, who went from child star to pop star before dropping out of the "business of show" years ago, thinks Shoni has the looks and smarts to make it big.

When Arden stumbles across a half-conscious, bloodied girl at his local train station, he doesn't know what to think. But once she tells him what happened to her, he gains a whole new perception of his world. Arden lives in pretty much the perfect setting. His family loves him, his future job is tailored to suit his talents, and he has a promising future with his girlfriend. He never intended for things to unravel when he finds a half-conscious girl in a pool of blood stowed away on a cargo train -- he just wanted to help her. But once she wakes up, he gets a lot more than he bargained for. She tells him a story of risk-taking, of discoveries. Of adventure, hope, and sadness. She seems to have more questions than answers. Answers he can't give her. But there's one thing Arden does realize: His superiors are hiding things from him.
