About This Book

The faint rustle of script pages flips through the chilly autumn air as Faith steps into the spotlight. The smell of fresh paint and stage lights buzzes around her, but her heart races for one reason: Christopher Hammond, the star on and off the stage. She wonders, could he really see her as more than just a face in the crowd?
