For Mason, it is the fact that he is in love with Sam who is only seventeen but he knows that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her, no more groupies but can their relationship afford to be brought out into the public eye as she is underage and he could be brought up on charges for statutory rape, though of course it is consensual or can they work out a way to be together out of the public's cameras ? The main star of this book though is Graham Allen and his life is one he tries very hard to keep under wraps as for the first twelve years of his life he was psychically abused and this was the twist by his mother not his father.
