PROLOGUE

Genesis Finch.

Every little girl wanted to be her. Every teenage girl wanted to be anorexic or bulimic just to have her body. Every 20-something woman was jealous of her. Every woman over the age of 40 despised her.

Who wouldn't?

With long silky blonde hair, high cheekbones, bright and shiny green eyes, cute little button nose, pouty lips, long eyelashes, insanely small waist, perfect ABS, long tan and muscled legs and size 38 C boobs, she turned every man in the planet on by simply blinking.

Along with the perfect body the 23 year old had everything. She had five houses just in the United States, one in Mexico, one in France, one in Spain and one in England. Even the smallest and cheapest one was valued at 1.8 million dollars. The public -- leaving out the 40 and over catagory of women -- loved her and couldn't get enough. Her family was supporting and caring. She had dated all of the "IT" boys, and could date them all over if she wished.

She had no real preference over the boys she dated, though. She dated the bad boy rockers -- Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit, Tommy Lee from Motley Crue, Tony Kanal from No Doubt, Robbie Williams, and Eminem. She had dated the pretty boys -- Rich Cronin from LFO, Nick Lachey from 98 Degrees, J. Brown and Sean Conlon both from the British Boy Band Five, and possibly her favorite boy band boyfriend JC Chasez from *NSYNC. Her newest choice of boyfriends was actors. She had already gone through Freddie Prince Jr., Seann William Scott, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and her newest beau of six months -- Josh Harnett. All of those boys fell within the time range of six years.

How had she gotten everything, you maybe asking right now? No. She didn't leach off of her montage boyfriends. She hadn't needed too. She had what she owed her career too long before she had started dating the stars. She had talent. One hundred percent talent. She was one of the biggest -- if not THE biggest -- name in Hollywood and had been since she started when she was 16. Modeling was her talent choice from the beginning. At 15 she had been seen at a local public pool, in her hometown of Dallas, Texas, by her now manager Christine Hall. Christine had thrown her into the modeling business and by the next year Genesis ruled the modeling world. She'd modeled for Versace, Anna Sui, Christian Dior, Dolce and Gabana, Donna Karan, Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Victoria Secret, XoXo, Bebe, and many many many more. Genesis's favorite modeling accomplishment though was how she had landed the prestigious cover of the Sports Illustrated FOUR times in a row.

At 18 Christine had decided to put Genesis into acting and Genesis proved she was a natural at more than one thing. She was the second highest paid actress out there, just barely being beat out by Julia Roberts. She had stared in over 20 movies in her acting career and had been in nearly 40 music videos.

She has to be a bitch you are probably telling yourself right now but she's not. In fact it's been said she's the nicest, the most honest, the most genuine person in Hollywood. No matter how shitty she feels if she is stopped for an autograph she signs it without a question.  She seems almost oblivious to all of her fame, in fact.

Minus her nine houses, she rarely splurges her money on herself. Much to the dismay of her manager she would rather shop at Kmart and WalMart than she would at one of the stores she models for. She saw no need for it since the designers she modeled for practically threw clothes at her. She did love to give her money to charities and especially her famiily and friends. When she was 17 she had bought her family an eight bedroom mansion that came with an Olympic sized pool, 9 bathrooms, a built in home theater, tennis courts, and much to her brothers' like an indoor full court basketball court. For mother's day Genesis's mother had gotten a silver jaguar, and for father's day she had gotten her father a red Mercedes Benz.  For her manager, Christine's, birthday Genesis had surprised her with a four bedroom house in the Florida Keys.

So Genesis Finch was beautiful, talented, and rich with people falling all over her. In nearly every interview she had, Genesis was asked what more could she want. Genesis knew the answer but never let on. Maybe you will know the answer of that question by the end of this, if you pay close attention. Just maybe.
