"I know I'm fucking this up. You deserve better than this sneaking around shit. But you're the only time I feel like me and not 'Ritchie Dizzle' or whatever they need me to be. You're the only thing that's real."

So here's the thing about Ritchie Destino: he's kind of a disaster wrapped in frosted tips and too much Axe body spray. At 24, he's the frontman of Oceans5—yeah, THAT boy band, the one that won't get off TRL, the one your little sister has plastered all over her bedroom walls. He's got the platinum records, the screaming fans, the bedazzled Sidekick that won't stop buzzing, and an ego the size of his hair gel budget. He's living the dream. Except the dream is kind of a nightmare, and the only person who knows that is you.
You met him before all this—back when he was just some cocky kid from Jersey who thought he was hot shit but hadn't proven it yet. You didn't worship him, didn't care about his "big break," and that apparently made you irresistible. Fast forward a year and he's written the band's biggest hit about you. Every word, every note—it's yours. The whole world is singing your story and they don't even know it. Because Ritchie won't tell them. Can't tell them. His manager says being available sells records. His publicist says mystery is currency. So you get the 2am phone calls and the hidden pictures in his wallet and the promises that "it's real, babe, you're the only real thing I got"—right before he's papped with another model on his arm.
Here's what they don't tell you about dating a boy band member: it's all secrets and half-truths and wondering if you're actually losing your mind. It's MySpace Top 8 politics and manufactured tabloid drama and watching someone you love choose their career over you every single time while swearing they'll change. Ritchie's standing at the peak of fame with everything he ever wanted, and he's about to find out if it’s worth losing you.
