ASHER I'd performed in front of millions of people, won three acting awards, and done my own stunts in a movie where I nearly died twice. But standing in this room waiting to get married, I was more terrified than I'd ever been in my entire life. Ten dates. That's what I'd told Paige we neede
When my parents came back from their conference, Damon told me he wanted our families to know about our relationship officially. I was nervous, but I agreed. The next evening, everyone gathered in the main living room. My parents, Aunt Sky and her husband, Victor, Ella, Asher and his new girlf

KELLY I turned back to my vanity, where the real work was happening. My makeup and wigs were spread out like an undercover agent’s arsenal. Red lipstick to the left. Smoky palettes to the right. Three different wigs lined up like suspects in a police lineup. Tonight’s mission: a significantly dark
