Two ex-boy band heartthrobs.

A burnt-out former pop star
A sweet, broke psychic… who hates him

Cover of Love in the Liner Notes by Katta Kis, Pagans & Pop Stars Book 1. Purple gradient with stars and music notes with a cd cover featuring the lovers tarot card and a witchy uterus on the cd RK and Angela Alice: Four Years Strong OMG has it really been four literal years since pop prince RK, our fave baby bae fresh off of the BeatBoyz implosion, broke our hearts (and spank banks) by getting with the infamous Angela Alice? He might be washed up and she might be crazy, but rumor is she’s backing his comeback solo album and new record label venture. Maybe strange bedfellows really can last. 
Cheers to the pop prince and the B***** Queen of metal! Keep proving us wrong in the hottest way possible.

Her anger breathed around them, crackling in her white-blonde hair, sparking in her pale gray eyes, gleaming in her sharp teeth. It was magnificent, honed to be frightening, to overwhelm. 
Even though he towered over her, it hit its mark. He leaned away because it was the most controlled way to recoil. 
“I am listening.” He kept his voice measured. “But that doesn’t mean I have to take every suggestion you give. Is it so bad that I want to write this album myself?”
He didn’t bother bringing up the platinum albums he’d been on. She wouldn’t care. She’d started this fight,
