Jody loves Jackson Gatlin. At his only UK rock concert, she's right at the front. But when she's caught in the crush and carried back stage she has more than concussion to contend with. Throw in a menacing manager, a super-wired super-star, and a curly-wurly, and she finds herself taking home more than just a poster. It's the accidental kidnapping of the decade. But what happens if you've a rock-god in your garage who doesn't want to leave Jody's stuck between a rock-idol and a hard place! From the pen of C.J. Skuse, author of 2010's super cool debut "Pretty Bad Things", comes a tale of rock star obsession gone nuts.

No...it's not Jackson. It can't be Jackson. Jackson never goes backstage to visit the fans.
But it is Jackson.

Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, Jesus please no. Oh no. Oh no, I'm not ready. Oh I look a mess. Do I still smell of puke? This is too much. I'm going to faint. What will I do, what am I going to do?! This man is the most perfect man in the world and I look like crap! My mind is blank. I should be squeeing. I should be about ready to bungee jump off Cloud Nine, but I feel sick. I do want to meet him, ask him if it was a dream that he gave the moon rock back to me, tell him how much he means to me, how I'm an outcast like him, how my parents got divorced too, tell him about the Stephen King books I've read, about the thirty-seven times I've watched their DVD, how his birthday is twenty-six days before mine. Tell him I'm his Number One Fan.
