  Gavin Reese rose to stardom and became a teenage heartthrob ten years ago, but before that, he was just Gavin, an eighteen-year-old boy who caught my eye and stole my heart while filming the movies that would eventually make him a household name. 
   
   
   
  We were friends first. I was only fifteen and too young for anything romantic, but over the next year, our friendship grew into something more. Something special. At least, it was special to me. 
   
   
   
  Apparently, what he had with his gorgeous costar wasn't all smoke and mirrors and lines on a page. 
   
   
   
  Ten years later, he came back to Evening Shade for a convention celebrating the anniversary of the first film's release. I managed to avoid him the whole weekend, but now that he's decided to stay for a while, I don't know what I'm going to do. 
   
   
   
  But I know what I'm not going to do. 
   
   
   
  I'm not going to fall for that sweet, good guy act. Not again. I may have fangirled over the boy who'd eventually become a star, but I refuse to fall for the playboy who's never had a serious relationship . . . including the one he had with me. 
   
   
   
  Ouch. Why does that still sting?

  The ruthless Arcaian soldiers use tears to steal magic, and now, they're after me. 
  In an emotionless world, tears are a precious commodity, valued for their magic and sold on the black market. When I find a vial of these enchanted tears, it paints a target on my back with the Arcaians.  
  I can't defend myself against an army, so when one of their rogue soldiers offers to help, I'm forced to create an alliance; but aligning with the rugged, battle-scarred Talon comes with risks of its own. Especially when his heavily guarded secrets put us both in more danger than I could ever have imagined.  
  Aside from not wanting to become a magic-producing slave to the Arcaians, I can't help but be drawn to Talon. But when I discover his darkest secret of all, his allegiance wavers, leaving me with no one I can trust.  
  Now I have no choice but to take up this fight alone. The tears have chosen me as their guardian, and if they fall into the wrong hands, my people and their magic will be enslaved to the Arcaians forever.
