What would you do if you had one chance to make him regret his entire existence? How much would you risk? Kate Hollis's ex-boyfriend's face plasters newsstands and TV, the Internet, and the multiplex. Jake Sharpe is one of the biggest recording stars on the planet, and every song he's famous for is about Kate. For over a decade his soundtrack has chased her - from the gym to the supermarket, from the dentist's office to the bars. Now thirty-year-old Kate gets the call that Jake has finally landed back in their Vermont hometown for an MTV special. The moment she has been waiting for has arrived. On the eve of their prom, Jake Sharpe vanished, resurfacing when his song "Losing" - about his and Kate's first sexual experience -- shot to the top of the Billboard charts. And the hits kept coming, each more personal than the one before. Now Kate gets her chance to confront Jake and reclaim her past. But after eleven years of enduring protracted and far-from-private heartbreak, everyone in Kate's life has a stake in how this plays out. Kate must risk betraying the friends Jake abandoned, the bandmates whose songs he plundered, and her own parents, who fear this will dredge up a shared past more painful than any of them want to acknowledge. But after getting the call in the dead of night and jumping on a plane, can she turn back now? 815261 5 6 2007 Dedication total:1433|5:123|4:373|3:541|2:296|1:100| 1433 4422 2080 340 39002 141654013X 9781416540137 1347 308 3.09 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1189907644m/39002.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39002.Dedication 2 2 true Fri Sep 12 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 12 16:58:05 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 13 16:34:17 -0700 2008 1 more...]]> 39002 141654013X 9781416540137 1347 308 3.09 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1189907644m/39002.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39002.Dedication 1 3 false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Apr 26 19:21:56 -0700 2008 Sat Apr 26 19:41:51 -0700 2008 The profanity in this book was absurd and unrealistic.
