Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 6 Summary

When Adam leaves the concert venue, Mia follows him outside. She tells him that he should quit music if it’s so hard for him to deal with the pressure and fame. A paparazzi photographer appears and begins hounding them for pictures. Mia takes Adam’s arm and they run across the street. She has a key to a garden that they can reach through a nearby alley. They manage to escape from the photographer. Mia says that she was involved with a conductor named Ernesto. He’s the one who gave her the key to the garden. Adam is jealous, but knows that he’s being a hypocrite. He’s been with so many women since Mia that he has lost count. But still, he’s jealous.

Chapter 7 Summary

Adam remembers how he and Bryn met. They were introduced at an MTV Movie Awards party. After leaving together, Adam told her about Mia’s accident, and revealed that she was still alive. Bryn had assumed that Mia had also died in the crash, since at that point her name had not been mentioned in the tabloids with Adam’s for a long time. While commiserating about relationships, Adam and Bryn start their own. Even though she is wonderful, Adam has always been ambivalent about their status as a couple.
