Excerpt:
“So, what’s it like to be married to
a rock star?”
“Ex, Barret, ex. Quinn isn’t my
husband any longer. But to answer your question, Barret, I’ve known Quinn since
I was ten years old. When he was Sean Marshall, an ________ person, long before
he ever became Quinn Michaels.”
The resentment was evident in her
voice. She didn’t want him to think she lived some fairy tale existence with
Quinn. In the end, Quinn was just a man with many foibles who was admired by
millions _______ of a pretty face and a beautiful voice. Attributes that Quinn
took full _________ of.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to pry.
It’s just…I’ve wondered why…” he hesitated.
She knew what he was getting at.
“______ not prying, Barret. If you want to know why Quinn and I are no longer
married, just ask.”
“Kansas
There was such a soft look in his
blue eyes, and once again, Kansas
“Be that as it may, Barret, Quinn
and I will never again be a couple,” she said firmly. “Once a cheater, always a
cheater. I __________ the articles in the weekly rags, and the chatter on the
internet for a very long time. But when Lynsey Reznor came into his life, I
knew I had to get out with what little dignity I still had.”
He cocked his head. “Lynsey Reznor?
That name is so familiar.”
“She’s a very __________ true-crime
writer from Miami
Barret averted his eyes. “Oh, that
Lynsey Reznor.”
“I can’t hate her too much, though. Apparently
she was as ________ to my existence, as I was to hers. She dumped Quinn when
she _____ out he was married.”
He shook his head. “Men like your
ex-husband give all men a bad name. If we were married, you never would have to
worry that I would give a woman a ______ look. I’m loyal to a fault.”
If only, she thought.
“Well, if anything came out of it,
you must be pretty well financially set after your divorce.”
For a ______, she considered lying
to him, pretend to be a broken little divorcee. But in an instant, she knew she
wanted to keep her relationship with Barret honest.
“My financial settlement with Quinn
is public knowledge. For ten years, I receive a certain percentage of his
previous year’s earnings. If I remarry, all financial support ends.”
Barret let out a low whistle _____
his breath. “I guess you won’t be getting remarried anytime soon—not for the
next years, at least.”
Anger sparked inside her. “Do you
really think I’m that shallow? That all I’m _________ with is a never ending
tap of cash?” she snapped. “Contrary to your belief, I look _______ to marrying
a man who doesn’t need mass love to feed his enormous ego. I want a home in the
suburbs and a garden full of children.
_______, even if I was all about the
money, one of these days Quinn will fall out of favor with his fans, and the
money will dry up.”
She felt the need to not mention
that even if she never saw another penny from Quinn, she would never be poor.
