 altAs if Sarah Palin's life weren't already public enough - what with her political aspirations, her daughter's numerous anti-teen pregnancy campaigns and her family's reality TV show - Alaska's First Family is about to get exposed in a whole new light by Bristol Palin's ex and baby-daddy, Levi Johnston. Life behind the facade at the Palin household isn't the first thing Levi will expose (he, ahem, bared quite a bit in an issue of Playgirl a while back), but the 20-year-old says he's recently received a book deal to talk about what it was like to be in the public eye during Sarah's astronomical rise to fame.

The book, billed as a Bildungsroman, will talk about Levi's coming-of-age in the shadow of the Palins, according to the Los Angeles Times. " I want to tell the truth about my close relationship with the Palins, my sense of Sarah and my perplexing fall from grace - how I feel and what I've learned," Johnston said in a statement released by his publisher, Touchstone Publishing.The title of the memoir? " Deer in the Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin's Crosshairs." You can't make that up.
