I caught my former prick of a boyfriend from Heavy Metal Enthusiasts doing a groupie doggie-style backstage on the night we were supposed to be celebrating our one-year anniversary.

What I didn't know was that my best friend recorded me. Marsha put the video up on YouTube. It went viral with 10 million hits. Now I've got fans and sponsors offering me big bucks.

Country’s hottest bad boy. That’s what they call me. My label ate it up until I became “too bad” for the good folks of country music.

Especially when they’ve assigned me a babysitter to try and keep my ass out of trouble. One smart-mouthed, unimpressed, sexy-as-homegrown-sin Addy Mae Masterson.

I thought Troy Tipton was just a nice guy with a gorgeous smile. Until I learned he was a fan-favorite NFL star quarterback. The same one gracing magazine covers with his irresistible dimples. The same one I mock on my show. When we start dating, the explosive chemistry we share is impossible to ignore. But can we keep our opposing careers from ruining what we have before we even begin?

We all have secrets. Like the fact that I portray myself as a simple florist, living a mundane life. Which is a far stretch from reality. My family is rock-god royalty.

But the truth was, I didn’t think there was anything sexier than having blurred lines when it came to Stella. The girl I’d wanted for longer than I’d ever admit to anyone. My best friend. The smartest, prettiest girl I’d ever seen, ever known. I was the star quarterback, the most popular guy in high school, who could have had any girl he wanted.

The things I knew about her, the way I watched. It was all to protect her, all to know her. She liked her tea with milk and sugar - extra sweet - just like I knew her lips would be if I were to kiss her. I was desperate for her. She chewed on her pencil when she was concentrating, her little tongue coming out and moving along her bottom lip. I was hungry for her.

It happened without warning. My vampire heart began beating as her human one stilled and she slipped away. I didn't know her, but everything in me demanded I save her. She was my mate. I couldn't let her go. So, I turned her rather than let her die, and we've been fighting ever since. They say love at first sight is magic.

What he doesn’t know is that he’s the main character in my icy exposé on how to resist men exactly like him. All in the name of investigative journalism.

Yet as our game intensifies, so does the tension between us.
