Summary
From the publisher:
A pretty boy who cares more for his image meets a wild boy who has dared explode the boundaries of music and sexuality. Classic boy meets boy, boy loses boy, boy fights his way back to boy.
Author's Dedication
This is dedicated to all the wonderful people on the Jonathan Rhys-Meyers Fansite messageboard, readers and writers alike, for their ongoing support and encouragement.
A special thanks to Alyse for hosting such a wonderful website and board.
But most of all. I would like to thank Malissa, who played beta and muse and who knew when to push and when to run.
