About this eBook

Soon to be a Lifetime limited series! The second in #1 New York Times bestselling author V.C. Andrew’s Cutler series follows Dawn as she embarks on a glittering future in New York City, only for tragedy and betrayal to plague her.

Dawn can hardly believe she’s a student at one of New York City’s best performing arts schools, on track to achieve her dreams of becoming a professional singer. But she is still haunted by memories of Jimmy, her strong, intense boyfriend, and the love and anguished secrets they share.

Then Michael Sutton arrives, a new teacher at the school, a singing star and the most handsome man Dawn has ever seen. Together they create a world of feeling she has never known. In his embrace Dawn awakens to disturbing, unfamiliar desires, and Michael’s promises offer a vision of music and romance forever...until he disappears.

Dazed by his cruelty, alone with the bitter fruit of his betrayal, Dawn becomes, once again, a victim of her grandmother’s twisted schemes. Desolate, she clings to the tender hope that Jimmy will return and renew their ultimate dream.

Ratings and reviews

The first half is terrible. It seems like all she does is cry. Everything makes her cry! If she's not crying she's yelling about some minor slight, running to throw herself down on her bed and sob uncontrollably. She's terribly naive, but goes around thinking she knows everything. She wants love so badly, yet when she has it she throws it away to sleep with another man. If you don't know anything about sex, how babies are made, and how to prevent them, you should keep your legs shut. It's much easier.

First half started off EXTREMELY slow & somewhat boring to me, but things do start to heat up, definitely glad I kept reading! Now, I'm on the next in series 🙂

I love this book
