Super Star

Super Star is the first book in The Deceit of Appearances trilogy, which follows Mac during an academic year as he seeks true love on his university campus while struggling to avoid compromising his values and his best interests in the sexually-charged city in which he lives. The trilogy, three short novels, each about one-third the length of a full-length novel, is rich in depictions of physical and emotional attraction and the conflicts it spawns, including the struggle between desire and restraint, the sensations and the sensible, the irrational and the rational, and the indulgent and the ethical. Super Star will be followed by the second and third offerings in the trilogy, Rhymes With Delicious and Foxy’s Girl. The trilogy will be the first of a lengthy series of novels that chronicles Mac’s near lifelong obsession with the opposite sex and his quest for true love. It will be followed by a rash of prequels and another round of sequels, each of which finds Mac at a different point in his life, be it childhood, adolescence, or adulthood—including at least three sequels that illuminate the series’ themes from the standpoint of late middle age.
