He’s out of her league. She’s out of his realm. Their worlds were never meant to collide.

Gavin Hanville used to be in the center of the spotlight before he left his celebrity boyband and disappeared. Now known as Ivan Hicks, lead singer of the indie band Somewhere in the Sky, Gavin couldn’t be happier with his music career. Or so he tells himself. But everything changes when he accidentally slips his real name to one of his biggest fans—and she won’t let him forget it.

Sienna Rowan’s weekly highlight is watching Somewhere in the Sky perform at her local cafe after school. Ivan Hicks, the dreamiest guy on the planet, is way out of her reach until one night in the rain. And they hit it off perfectly—until he accidentally reveals his real name. The guy who used to grin at her from the stage now avoids her at all costs, but she’s determined to show him that he can trust her.

To Gavin’s surprise, Sienna seems to calm him like no one else. It doesn’t take long for their budding friendship to turn into something much more, and Gavin knows he either has to tell her the truth or end things for good. But how can he throw everything away when he enjoys being seen for who he really is and not just a name in the headlines? Maybe she’ll never find out . . . or maybe she has a secret of her own that will tear apart everything they wanted.

NEXT TO EVERYTHING WE WANTED is a closed-door YA romance with passionate kisses and moments that will leave you laughing, crying, and squealing until the very last page. It is second in the series When We Faced the Music but can be read as a standalone.
