There will be a surprise visit from someone you would least expect to drop by during this holiday vacay.    

I've found a career. Or maybe a career has found me. It's one I never would have imagined; one that I've never respected. But yes, I am paparazzi now in one of the most flush communities in the country. My reputation is well-known. When the tabloids need the shot, I'm the one that delivers. I am Grace Evangelista. I'm really Neely, but a cover is essential in my business. And Seth Drake is about to get up close and personal with my expertise. Is it revenge I want? Or is it simply validation that yes, I can be as good at my craft as he is at his?

Seth and Neely's paths have crossed over the years, but not in the way they had hoped. The misunderstandings between them stem from issues beyond their control, but the truth will be revealed. No matter who the players are that come in and out of their lives, one thing cannot be denied: Seth and Neely are meant to be together. Their love is destined to endure. Almost anything.

Love should be everything or not at all. At least that's what I used to think. I'm 17 now, and back in Malibu. Mama's drying out back East, and here I am living with my father and his new wife, Tiffany Blume, Hollywood harlot. I just have to bide my time until I turn 18 and go off to college. Away from them; away from Seth Drake. Seth is living his dream. Studying acting in New York City, landing a recurring role in a hit series, and grabbing my heart one last time until it breaks.

We were just kids when we met.... He was the boy from down the beach. I was the transplant from Tennessee. He became my best friend. I became his best girl. And then...it became us. We shared things...our dreams, our secrets...first kisses and then our hearts. Seth Drake was my everything. My first crush. My first love. My forever passion. Until that day when everything changed through no fault of ours.

Pretending not to remember a brutal attempted murder has its perks.
