Every Friday afternoon, he gave her something to look forward to.  What she didn't know was that she gave him something to look forward to as well.  Something that took him away from his life, for just a little while.

Wow, I feel connected to this character in just a few hundred words. It'd be great to read more of this someday. :)

When Lauren wakes up to a life she never knew, nothing seems to make sense except one thing...

That he loves her.

 This is for my Secret Santa LTaylor03! I hope you like it. I tried to do something a little different for you :) Merry Christmas!

I stumbled upon this while trying to find something new to read and I LOVED it. I got hooked from the first chapter.

I loved how genuinely freaked out Lauren was to discover herself in bed with Justin. Because, let's be honest, if this was real life it would be pretty terrifying to wake up next to him with no recollection. I mean it's J... you'd quickly get over it, but still...

Also, thank you for providing a happy ending. I was a little bit worried in parts that there might not be one.:)

Eventually, everyone has a breaking point, especially in Hollywood.  For Justin Timberlake, it’s been five years in the making, and he can feel himself cracking more and more everyday he has to work for London Pierce.  With various job offers on the table and a way out of his nightmarish job for the first time, he starts to think there is more to life than looking after a Bulimic, eccentric Hollywood superstar.  There’s only one problem, though.

He can’t make himself leave her.

Something tells me that Justin may well 'blow up at her, and tell her exactly what he thinks about her,' and I cannot wait!

Yay! But I can't fight the niggling feeling that's telling me it's not going to be smooth sailing for this couple. *hurries off to read more...*

Wow! Poor Justin, but what a decision for Sarah to have had to make out of the blue. I hope its not true that Justin is gone for good. I hope Sarah doesn't hit rock bottom again. :(

Author's Response: So glad you discovered this story! I'm really glad you are enjoying it and I hope to update for you soon :)

Past Featured Story

They're complete opposites in every aspect of their personalities. They drive each other crazy and it makes life a living hell for them...until their feelings take a dramatic turn. The only problem is that secrets and extra baggage between lovers don't work.

And neither do husbands.

Needing everything to be in its right place, now that sounds familiar. I'm liking the sound of Adeline already!

Hope Lance manages to at least make her feel welcome so she doesn't have to use that knife!

Giving it all up for a job she thinks might be hell... Adeleine must be pretty desperate to get away. I wonder what she's running from.

Justin is attending the 2013 Grammys, his performances went well, but soon realizes that he has something missing in his life..

Poor Joey. This isn't sounding good for him. Glad he's got his brothers around for support. Not to mention poor JC. I swear every fiction I've read describes his love of sleeping! He's never gonna get away from that. LOL

Author's Response:

And Chris is never gonna get away from the fact that he's the oldest. :P

Just you wait until you get further into the story. Things go downhill in a hurry. 

Reviewer: Pumples Signed
Date: Aug 02, 2014 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Appointment

Um, Chris... orange juice and coke? Really?!

Loved the coffee description, and you've totally nailed the hideous feeling of being in a hospital waiting room. After waiting two weeks for the results, me and my family had to wait three hours to be told my mum had cancer. It was brutal. Sad to read dear Joey going through the same. I already hope this story has a happy ending, but that would be giving too much away, right? ;) 



Author's Response:

Coke mixed with OJ has become a little joke of mine. I don't drink it myself, but I sometimes like to show a character drinking it. (Everyone who reads my stuff finds that disgusting.) I don't drink coffee either, but I did some "research" to get the idea of what bad coffee tastes like. And I don't like waiting, either; I get antsy after just twenty minutes. If I don't have my Zune or something to do, I go nuts. 

Um, yeah, I'm afraid that would fall under the category of "Super Spoilers." I already know how it will end, but that's for me to know and you to eventually find out. I'm feeling pretty confident about finishing this story. It may take a while, but I have the basic plot figured out, so mostly it's a matter of figuring out the details.

I hope your mom is still doing well. Poor Joey (I'm saying this a lot!) I've been there to witness family members receiving upsetting medical news, but I am certain that the feeling pales in significance to actually being the patient. I can't even imagine... 



Author's Response:

Yeah, she is. She's passed that five-year mark, so I feel a little more reassured, but I still get jumpy now and then.

I couldn't say which is worse: being sick yourself or having someone you know and love being sick. I guess both situations are bad in their own way.
