comment
Loony Fan: Chapters 13 and 14 feature a fan attacking Amber at a convention before they're stopped by Ash and thrown out by security. Later dialogue reveals that he was arrested for attacking a different woman previously, believing her to be Amber. The Big Bad, Shannon Beck, ends up being this for the "Guarded" book series that is getting a film adaptation that Amber is starring in. Her motivation for the numerous crimes she committed throughout the book such as stalking, assault and kidnapping are because she felt the film was making too many changes that deviated from the source material.

Stalker with a Crush
 Guarded (Visual Novel) / int_8b68d9a7
comment
Stalker with a Crush: At the end of Chapter 1, Amber gets a threatening piece of mail from someone who is implied to be a crazed fan of hers. This is the reason for her being assigned a bodyguard in the first place. This trope is also referenced in the Content Warning. Turns out the stalker in this book does have a crush, albeit on a book series rather than a person.

comment
The Dog Was the Mastermind: After 17 chapters of Amber being stalked, harassed, put in danger, and eventually kidnapped, the culprit ultimately turns out to be Shannon, who had less than a minute of combined screentime throughout the entire book up until now.

Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse
 Guarded (Visual Novel) / int_ad17a1ac
comment
Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: Shannon loves the "Guarded" book series and talking to Amber online in a fan forum was a form of escapism for her after feeling like an outcast, which is why she was furious with the changes made in the film adaptation. Amber can tell her to "save the sob story", feeling no sympathy for a deranged criminal who has terrorized her for weeks.

Red Herring: The Loony Fan who's arrested in Chapter 14 is originally thought to be the stalker who's been harassing Amber. Turns out the real stalker had nothing to do with him.

Switching P.O.V.: Just like in Surrender, you get to play as the main character and her love interest (the main character in odd-numbered chapters and the love interest in even-numbered chapters).
