Starry Eyed

An international story of starting over

Katharine Pollock

Career wallflower Addilyn Acker is hiding a rich inner life: she's obsessed with cult feminist sci-fi film, Scarlett Fever, and runs a fan site dedicated to its handsome director Josh 'Jolly' Courtney. When she's invited to interview him live on stage at New York City's Cosmic Con, it seems almost too good to be true.

In the Big Apple, she befriends Brit backpacker Sally and meets sweet comic book store owner Anthony. When Josh asks to meet Addilyn one-on-one, it seems like her wildest dreams are coming true. Everything is rosy ... except that Josh might not be quite who she thought he was. Addilyn is set to learn that idols can be false and that some fan-fiction is best left unwritten.
