this her whole life. Can’t tell her what to do or when to do it.”
    “I’ve noticed,” Drew says dryly.
    A man comes over and pulls my dad away to do an interview. We greet the various people that stop by, many of whom Drew already knows or has worked with.
    “Sydney!” I hear a familiar voice call out.
    O h shit! Don’t come over here.
    Drew stiffens next to me, pulling me closer to him in a territorial move.
    I attempt a smile but i t comes out weak. “Adam,” I say to the tall, gorgeous man headed our way. I can’t believe he’s doing this in front of Drew, especially after those articles painted us as lovers. I’m starting to think he either has no common sense or enjoys antagonizing my fiancé.
    He pointe dly ignores Drew. “I was hoping to introduce you to my mates,” he says as he reaches for my free hand.
    “Don’t touch her,” Drew says menacingly from my side.
    Adam turns his head, forced to acknowledge Drew. I see a hint of a smirk on his frustratingly handsome face. “Forrester, nice to see you again.” There isn’t even a suggestion of sincerity in his voice.
    Drew takes a small step toward Adam. “You have a lot of nerve coming over here Reynolds,” he snarls. I tug on his hand, hoping to pull him away from whatever confrontation he thinks he’s going to have in a lobby full of industry people.
    “What?” Adam says innocently. “I told Sydney I would introduce her to my band, so here I am .” He drops his gaze back to me. “Didn’t I, Sweetheart?”
    Drew’s expression is murderous. “What did you just call her?” He says each word slowly and clearly. Shit, he’s getting super pissed.
    “Adam, stop it. ” I know he’s antagonizing Drew on purpose. I can see it all over his face. He thinks Drew can’t do anything about it here without making a giant scene. Unfortunately, giant, public scenes seem to be Drew’s specialty lately.
    Adam ignores me and looks back at Drew, smiling. “I always call beautiful women sweetheart. We’re just friends, right Sydney? Just like you and Kiera were just friends .” He focuses his penetrating hazel eyes on Drew.
    “What are you doing Adam?” M y voice is pleading with him to leave it alone. He’s poking a sleeping bear with a very sharp stick.
    “You’re wrong,” Drew says calmly. “I was never friends with Kiera. She’s too much of an intolerable bitch to be near, let alone be friends with.”
    Adam’s eyes widen in surprise at Drew’s description of his co-star and Adam’s ex-girlfriend, then he grins. “She may be a bitch, but she sure knows how to shag, right Forrester?” He winks at Drew knowingly.
    Holy Fuck, Adam has a death wish!
    “Adam, what the hell has gotten into you?” I ask. I knew that these two hated each other but I didn’t think Adam would sink to taunting Drew outright.
    Before he can answer, Drew pushes me behind him and takes another step forward, almost touching chests with Adam. “Shut the fuck up and get out of my sight Reynolds. I don’t know what the fuck your problem is but I’m sick and Goddamn tired of your shit,” he says in a low, scary voice.
    “Like you don’t know what my problem is,” Adam spits back at Drew. “My girl up and dumps me so she can be with you while you make your pathetic little movie. Everywhere I go I hear your bloody sodding name and now you’re trying to keep me from my friend. I’m fucking fed up!”
    My heart drops into my stomach from Adam’s confirm ation. Kiera’s flat out crazy. She had her sights on Drew from the beginning. “Adam, I thought Kiera was cheating and that’s why you broke up,” I say in a low voice.
    Adam focuses back on me, then down to my hand clutching Drew’s. “I was involved with Kiera when she was cast opposite this arsehole. So she shagged her current co-star and let me walk in on them so she wouldn’ t have to tell me to my face.” He lets his sentence taper off when he realizes what he’s saying in front of
