Aria was just shy of eighteen when her best friend, Yoshi, set fire to their foster home and begged her to run away with him-promising he'd become a superstar and take care of her forever. Five years later, Yoshi is head drummer for the biggest rock band in the world, The White Keys, and can have any woman he wants. Any woman but Aria. Aria knows better than to put her friendship with Yoshi at risk over something as stupid as sex. Even if the unexplainable attraction growing between them proved harder to fight each day, she refused to give in. But when Yoshi receives the opportunity of a lifetime-a chance to launch a solo career, it not only threatens the sparks flying between them, but their lifelong friendship as well. Unable to be away from her, Yoshi offers Aria a job on his first world tour. There's just one problem: his P.R. girlfriend, Carmen. Carmen was just there for appearances, a bombshell to hang from Yoshi's arm during award shows and press junkets. But soon, Carmen begins to believe their fake relationship is real, and she'll do whatever it takes to keep him. First things first, destroy Aria. Can Yoshi and Aria's budding relationship withstand Carmen and her manipulative ways? Or will the price of fame prove too steep, tearing apart two foster kids who promised to keep each other forever?
