On the way home in the car, Magda had turned from Sunshine Sheri super fan to major detractor.

"I can't believe she tried to make it look like Mr. Justin was unfaithful to you hours before your wedding!" She put a disdainful huff into her voice. "He's not the type to fool around! Before you, he didn't have a girlfriend. Or date."

Can you be unfaithful hours before an unplanned, impromptu wedding to a girl you've just reconnected with? That was one of those moral enigma questions someone with way more smarts than me would have to ponder.

I nodded. "Yeah. What was up with her? Her assistant apologized profusely. I think she's afraid of Jus and his connections and what they could do to Sheri's show if they chose. Sheri's evidently having some kind of midlife crisis where she thinks she needs to 'get serious' and leave a body of work that 'means something.' Like a hard-hitting piece on a billionaire's elopement? That doesn't even make sense!"

I tried to play it cool. But I was nervous and jumpy. Could Sheri have somehow found us out? I had to talk to Jus and tell him everything I'd learned. I'd been texting him like a crazy woman. But I had to veil everything. Send cryptic messages like, Call me so I can tell you all about the show!

Yeah, like that would set his alarm bells off. I looked like an excited media hound. I was relying on the sheer volume to tip him off.

At least I'd managed to beg Sheri's assistant to email me a copy of that damning picture of Jus with my ID-thieving wannabe me. Jus would know what to do with it. He'd use his mad computer skills to put a stop to things. In an odd way, I was excited that we finally had a picture of her to work from.

Magda sighed. "Sheri's shows have been getting—what's the word?—edgier! Yes, edgy lately. Not so light and fun like I like. But this was the first time she's been mean to a guest. On a show about love, too!

"If I had seen her act this mean way before, I would have warned you. Or Mr. Justin. Mr. Justin would never have let you go on that show then!"

I loved Magda's loyalty. But I almost laughed at the thought of Jus going all alpha dog on me and putting his foot down, forbidding me to go on the Sunshine Sheri show.

My phone rang. When I picked up, Britt was bubbling over with excitement. "I just got an offer from Flash! As a senior merch buyer." She rattled off the details, including a salary that Jus had been exceptionally generous with.

I felt the noose tightening. Complications were flying today. Britt at Flash. This could either be fantastic. Or the death of a beautiful friendship. I was in the proverbial rock and hard place spot. If Jus didn't give her a job, I was doomed. If he did, the jury was still out.
