A Safe Space

Everyone needs a safe space. For Lizzie Warner, that space has always been in front of the camera on her hit show, or on stage to a sold out concert arena. Since before she can remember, shes been a star, but that may be about to change. Shes nineteen. Her show has been cancelled and now shes going to play the lead in a new prime time drama series, but is the world ready to take her seriously, or will she be typecast as the cute tween queen forever? Her network has decided to be aggressive and has invested millions of dollars in an ad campaign for her show, money shes not sure she can earn back. Her co-star cant stand her, and the writing for the show turns out to be poor at best. The only reason Lizzie didnt walk away from the job offer to begin with is because shes broke, the victim of a decade of bad money management. Then theres Devon, the personal trainer at her gym. Arrogant and abrasive, hes the last guy she should ever find attractive, but she has a hopeless crush on him anyway, and he doesnt seem entirely disinterested either. In fact, sometimes hes downright sweet to her. If only he werent an untamable bad boy who uses and dumps women like theyre nothing. Though Lizzies friends warn her to stay away, hes the only person who can create what she needs: a safe space. But is there any way she can break him of his years' long habit of being a user?
