It starts at a concert. For years, the haunting melodies and darkly poetic lyrics of Oliver Rose and The Thorns have provided Madison solace and inspired the explosions of color she's never dared to call art. Now, as she begins her post-college life in Los Angeles, she finally gets to see The Thorns live. An embarrassing mistake connects her with Daniel, and the spark between them is instant. But he's not just any swoon-worthy stranger-he's one of Oliver Rose's oldest friends. Before she can even process this twist of fate, Madison finds herself whisked away to the band's afterparty, living out a scene straight from her fantasies. And then, there he is: Oliver Rose, the man whose voice has scored her every heartache and triumph, in the flesh. To Madison's utter amazement, the charismatic frontman seems just as intrigued by her. But life rarely follows the lyrics of a love song. While the allure of her teenage celebrity crush is undeniable, Madison can't ignore the easy connection blooming with Daniel. As fantasy and reality blur, her choices threaten to unravel not only her dreams, but the tight-knit world of the band she idolizes. In life, as in art, the most beautiful creations often emerge from the messiest processes.

"Okay, I'm going to make love to you now, Angel. It will hurt a little, so let me know if it hurts too much," he says and leans down to kiss me. "I'll be gentle," he tells me. Keeping his eyes locked on mine he shifts his hips forward slightly and enters inside of me. My mouth widens as he enters, and I feel a slight pinch. He was right, it does hurt, but it's not terrible. "Christ! You're the sun!" he calls out. I watch his face crumble. He buries his face in my neck and then he's above me again, his hands on my cheeks again. ... For 20 year old Alison Scott, love was never something she deemed herself worthy of.
