But when he helps her out with another first — —losing her virginity — —their friendship gets complicated. Meanwhile, Edie and John are pulled back into the dangerous world they narrowly escaped. They were lucky to survive the first time, but this time they have more to lose— — each other.“'

If only the chemistry between her and her rock star would stop hitting new heights.'

'Waking up in Vegas was never meant to be like this.

'Evelyn Thomas's plans for celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Las Vegas were big. Huge.

Now if she could just remember how it all happened.

'One thing is for certain, being married to rock and roll's favourite son is sure to be a wild ride.'
