Chapter One

Ryan Everheart is Hollywood's newest and hottest teenage star. At only eighteen he's landed roles in movies with academy award winning stars and fans around the world are beginning to notice. About twelve hours north of Hollywood there's the small city of Redding, California; the furthest thing from Hollywood. Just before his new career takes off Ryan decides to catch up with his old friend Taylor, from this small city for the summer. There he realizes he's in over his head when he is introduced Taylor's whole family. Especially when he meets Taylor's sister Paula, who teaches him that there's more to life than being famous.
