Awaiting to finally be able to age out, only a year away for her 18th birthday, Marcella Morales will finally be free to forge her own path. Having bounced between neglectful homes for years, she's both excited and apprehensive to start truly living. That's when her wildest dream becomes reality - she gets adopted by Vic Fuentes, the lead singer of her favorite band, Pierce the Veil. Marcy goes from group homes to the rock star life overnight. She trades hand-me-down clothes for the wardrobe of a budding musician's protégé and gets an all-access pass to the gritty underground music scene she idolized from the outside. Though Vic's free-spirited, live-for-today attitude initially intoxicates her, Marcy soon learns the darker side of fame. As this makeshift family navigates jealous groupies, media frenzies, and drama galore, Marcy must decide who she really wants to become. Her journey leads her down a road of self-discovery, first loves, and defining her own voice - both literarily and figuratively. In the end, Marcy realizes that taking control of her future doesn't mean simply cutting ties with her troubled past. (Reason why original one was deleted in the prologue:)
