So she decides that instead of going to Italy with her family during her two-week spring break, she wants to spend it with Caleb instead, who also happens to be a member of an up and coming band called Wildfire, that’s well known in the Sacramento area. Her plan is to fly out to California to catch up and reminisce with her best friend, but that all changes her first night there when she meets the rest of the band members, and becomes real curious about their lead singer, Mason Scott. Their first encounter is brief, but when his gray eyes land on her brown ones, she knew she wanted to know more about him…In every imaginable way. The night she steps foot inside the club, The Grind, to watch Wildfire’s last performance before they were set to go on tour with Caleb’s dad’s band, Hurricane, she’s immediately drawn to the sounds of an electric guitar, drums, and a strong sexy raspy voice echoing throughout the club. Her eyes search the room looking for the owner of the voice, when they finally land on Mason. He was standing behind the microphone with his eyes closed, grasping it while letting the lyrics flow through his lips. Every emotion he was feeling came flowing. Women were screaming his name, demanding his attention, while the men stood in awe wishing they could be him. Nyla stood there not wanting to move, afraid that she would miss the message that he was trying to get across in the lyrics. She was never a fan of rock music, but then again she really didn’t have a favorite genre either. If it was good to her she listened to it, and Wildfire was good. Mason stops singing and pulls away from the mic, and picks up an acoustic guitar sitting on its stand nearby and starts playing it with so much grace. She couldn’t take her eyes off of him. Seeing him perform gave her an amazing feeling. She always relied on video clips and audio snippets that Caleb sent to her by text message of Mason’s musical talent, and now she was experiencing it live. Everything about Mason oozed sex appeal from his tousled black hair, all the way down to his exposed neck, arms, and legs, that showed off his different tats, to the way he worked the crowd. Flirting with every male or female he came in contact with. He didn’t discriminate. He makes his way back to the mic, and he closes his eyes briefly again, and begins rocking back and forth, allowing the music to take over him. Before singing the next verse to the song, he opens his eyes and they lock with hers. From that single moment alone. She became His Number One Fan… Not realizing that this night was the beginning of both of their lives changing forever…
It's Complicated

The money is tempting, oh so tempting, but there’s something else too… I’m curious… My eyes haven’t been closed for the last five years. I noticed him. Him, with his dreamy eyes I could get lost in. Him, with those good looks reserved for Hollywood, and that body that makes me think of hot, sinful things that would make my priest blush. I’m curious to see what it would be like to be on his arm. I’m curious to see how this little arrangement will play out. I’m curious to know if the scorching hot kiss he gave me when we weren’t pretending was real. We’re getting close, and so far over the line we crossed we can’t even see it anymore. I try to keep telling myself it’s not real. I just wished I believed it…
