#releaseday #NewRelease #Netgalleyarc #DoubleReview – The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck by Kylie Scott

“Be quiet and listen: He is cheating on you. The name of your soulmate is Alistair George Arthur Lennox. You will be passed over for the promotion. The winning numbers are 5-8-12-24-39-43. And I’m very sorry to tell you this, but you will die next Sunday.”

When Lilah Goodluck saves the life of Good Witch Willow as they’re crossing a busy L.A. street, the last thing she expects is five unwanted predictions as a reward. Who gives someone the winning lotto numbers then tells them they’ve only got a week to live? And who believes in that nonsense anyway?

But when the first three predictions come true within twenty-four hours, Lilah’s disbelief turns to mild panic. She’s further horrified when she nearly runs a car off the road that belongs to Alistair Lennox, who just happens to be the illegitimate son of the British king.

While Alistair is intrigued by her preposterous story, Lilah is adamant about resisting the heat between her and the playboy prince. If she denies he’s her soulmate, then the last prediction can’t come true, right? As the days count down, they become maybe friends…and then maybe more. But between the relentless paparazzi and some disapproving royals, finding time for love isn’t easy, especially when her days may be numbered.

Red White and Royal Blue meets The Last Holiday in this delightfully quirky novel from the New York Times bestselling author of End of Story, about a woman who unexpectedly finds “fall in love with a prince” at the top of her bucket list.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by Netgalley for an honest review.

I have to say I am a reader of all Kylie’s books.  I will be honest when I say some just wrap me up in a happy bubble for days.  While other books are easy to put down and come back to later.  I was really excited for the premise because I have never heard of a story like this.  So I was hoping for the first vs other book.

When the book started, I was all in.  I loved the way Lilah and Willow met and her reaction to what Willow tells her.  I mean I would have freaked out too right??  ANYONE would have.  Because when you get that information, anyone would ignore it but also kindddda wonder.  When things started to go like Willow said, Lilah FREAKED OUT as I would have.  I mean you meet your soulmate like willow said you would.

The story of Lilah and Alistair’s romance was cute but at times I felt like the chemistry was a little lacking. There were spots when I felt the story was rushing which is also why maybe I felt the lack of the love/chemistry.

Overall, I did like the story and would tell a fan of her writing to grab the book.

I received a copy of this book by NetGalley for an honest review.

I was excited to get this book. I so enjoy a good Kylie Scott read.  This was different but I was intrigued by this story.  I like the beginning and how Lilah finds out her fate.  There were great parts to this book and then there were some ok parts.

Willow gives Lilah the information everyone wants to know about their fate when Lilah saves Willow. She doesn’t believe Willows predictions until things start to go the way the Good Witch Willow says. Then Lilah starts to freakout a bit. Lilah almost takes out the one and only Alistair Lennox the same man Good Witch Willow says is Lilah’s soulmate. I have to say the chemistry between Alistair and Lilah is great. Along the way Lilah finds Alistair is a kind loving amazing guy. I enjoyed reading and seeing Lilah complete things on her bucket list and seeing all Alistair does to help.

This was an enjoyable read.  I did find it easy to set down but my curiosity of what would happen next had me picking it back up. If you are a fan of Kylie Scott’s works you should not overlook this one.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I received this book ARC from the author for a truthful review of the book.

OK sooooooo I love Kylie and her novels. I mean Zombies running around trying to eat you and people are falling in love…..perfection!!! Her books are a total episode of The Walking Dead but well…. really naughty!! 🙂 For those of you that don’t know, Kylie soooo graciously let us raffle off her first book Flesh when our blog first opened in October. So she has been with us since the very beginning and watched us grow. We LOVE you for helping us as much as we have helped you!!! MUAH!!!

Ok so this novel….Oh brother Nick…..well IF you read Flesh (If not ya better cuz its a hawt M/F/M story plus scary zombies are everywhere.) you will remember Nick was cast out of the safe community because they deemed him untrustworthy. So he has been alone, hopeless and basically spying on the pockets of people he has found. WELLLLL he sees Ros and BOOM goes the fly of his pants…..Yup thinking with the lower extremities…..SOOOO our hero decides to BUY her from her “friends”…sigh….really Nick? I mean Flowers and a can of Spam since they are starving might have been a better approach but……Well their “relationship” isn’t so happy. WHAT you are shocked? I mean being chained to the bed with a gag ball doesn’t help you form trust you say?? Well needless to say a bond does form along with some very hot sparks. Holy hell their first “joining” shall I say…what girl wouldn’t want it THAT way *gulps ice cold water* cuz I sure wouldn’t complain. Well Ros freaks and escapes because well…she is a typical hot mess of a women. Confused over why in the heck she did that with a man who BOUGHT her and held her as a hostage. (SMH! Dude he is hot and who wouldn’t have given in at some point?? Must be the dang Stockholm Syndrome she was talking about.) Anywho, when Ros realizes she wants to be with Nick all hell breaks out. She gets chased by a herd of zombies and our hero is there in a flash but their little safe haven is now gone. So out on the run they go into the world to try and find someplace to survive.

Well at this point in the novel is when all shit really starts to happen. Nick and Ros run into some Super Big Douche Bags and things happen……Then they run to the safe community Blackstone where If you remember Nick is kinda hated. So when they find out that Ros was “purchased” he wasn’t very well received AGAIN!! The last pat of the book was action packed no doubt. There was a point when I was reading I yelled “NOOOOO” and was soooo saddened. ….haha you sooo now I am gonna leave you hanging right??!!! Anyway, I loved seeing Allie, Finn and Dan from Book 1. They are working well together and help Nick and Ros. I am excited for where book 3 will go and I have zero clue who the hero will be. I THINK I have a clue about the female but EH who knows!!! All I can say is that this book is amazing and maybe even better then the 1st if possible!!!

#NewRelease #releaseday #Contemporary #DoubleReview – End of Story by Kylie Scott

End of Story

New York Times bestselling sensation Kylie Scott’s sexy, smart and unconventional opposites-attract love story looks at what happens when fate refuses to give up on what’s meant to be…

When Susie Bowen inherits a charming fixer-upper from her aunt, she’s excited to start living her best HGTV life. But when she opens the door to find that her contractor is none other than her ex’s best friend, Lars—the same man who witnessed their humiliating public breakup six months ago—she isn’t exactly eager to have anyone around whose alliance is with the enemy. But beggars can’t be choosers, and the sooner the repairs are done, the sooner she can get back to embracing singledom.

Things go from awkward to unbelievable when Lars discovers a divorce certificate hidden in a wall and dated ten years in the future—with both their names on it. It couldn’t possibly be real…could it? As Susie and Lars work to unravel the document’s origins, the impossibility of a spark between them suddenly doesn’t seem so far-fetched. But would a relationship between them be doomed before it’s even begun?

“Sweet and spicy—the unique setup, top-notch banter and charming enigma had me hooked.” —Anna E. Collins, author of Love at First Spite

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book for an honest review.

I, like most readers, am a huge Kylie fan.  I look forward to her releases and can’t wait to get an ARC.  I am very blessed to be allowed each and every ARC I have gotten.  I was excited for the premise of this book.  A divorce paper is found in a house with the date 10 years in the future.  I am a huge paranormal fan, so this sounded cool. Sounded fun.

I started to story with a lot of excitement.  I went in ready to laugh at the snark and banter we all love and expect. I gotta say this book seemed a bit lacking in what I hoped.  The book for me seemed a bit long winded in parts.  It felt like we relived the same conversations at times.  I also feel like the paranormal sounding angle wasn’t really there.  I will admit maybe me thinking/hoping for more of a paranormal angle took away from the enjoyment of the story.

Now I will say I enjoyed the characters Lars and Susie.  It was fun to read and see them building while trying to figure out what in the heck about the certificate.  They couple were sweet and the epilogue was great.   I am sure I will be in the minority with my review.  But I think I wanted something a little bit different.

I was given this book for an honest review. 

I absolutely love Kylie Scott and enjoyed the Stage Dive series and Zombie books. I was so excited and honored to get this on as an ARC. After reading the synopsis I was ready to find out how this divorce certificate dated ten years in the future got in the wall. I thought we are going to have a mystery to solve and could we have some spiritual being involved but nope just the mystery of the document. 

I enjoyed the characters in this book. I liked Lars and Susie even though they seemed to run in circles at times. However I really enjoyed Lars’s brother, Tore, and Susie’s bestie, Cleo, they were funny and I enjoyed the scenes they were in. Of course we also had those characters you don’t enjoy cough cough Aaron really what a douche. The story line was good. I have not read one like this before. I liked the idea of an acquaintance to lovers with a bit of mystery tossed in. I do have to say I did put the book down a few times just because it seemed like I was reading the same thing over again.  

I will always be a Kylie Scott fan and will read anything she writes. There are always some great one liners and funny moments with her characters. You cannot help but love them. I will say I am intrigued by Tore and Cleo and would love a book about them.

Just What I Needed (Stage Dive, #4.9)

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kylie Scott comes a story in her Stage Dive series…

When the Stage Dive crew decides to help, they do it in a big way.

Nanny and housekeeper Jude has been going through a dry patch. Getting ready to dip her toes back into the dating pool is a little nerve racking. And the offers of assistance from her boss, David Ferris, and his band are not helping. Right up until music producer Dean Jennings arrives to work on the band’s latest album.

But Dean is more than a little wary of dating anyone with anything to do with the Stage Dive crew after losing Lena to lead singer Jimmy Ferris all those years ago. Can Jude a) Convince the crew to stay out of her business and b) Woo the man of her dreams?

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

For all of us Stage Dive fans, this novella was a great look back into our favorite band and family.  Ev and David’s nanny, Jude, is the main female in this story along with Lena’s ex/Jimmy’s rival for her attention, Dean.  Now we all love Dean and felt bad for him, so I was happy to see him get an HEA along with Jude.

Jude and Dean find each other sharing space at Ev and David’s guest house.  She is stunned stupid at how beautiful and nice he is.  He seems a bit smitten by the crazy woman in fuzzy socks.  When the ladies essentially force Jude to admit what she was feeling, they of course, decide to help. LOL  Poor Jude.

The novella is a quick read into Jude and Dean facing a lot of issues like super model ex’s, super fans, and some old school teenage crush issues.  Serious the epilogue had me laughing so hard.  I love this group and this novella makes me what to reread the series again.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

I love anytime I can get a Stage Dive book in my hands.  I love all these characters and enjoy seeing them all again. This quick little read is about Dean and Jude.

Jude is Ev and David’s nanny who stays in the guest house. Dean who is Stage Dive’s record producer is also staying in the guest house for a bit. Jude is attracted to Dean but leery of pursuing Dean because of the connection to her boss. Dean is also leery of getting with Jude after loosing Lena. They have an instant attraction that even with them being cautious they feel the pull to one another. Once the Stage Dive crew sees the attraction between Dean and Jude all bets are off to get these two together.

I enjoyed seeing Dean and Jude getting to know each other. There is a bit of drama but it is short lived. Not sure I would handle things as Jude did if someone came in unannounced and ate my dinner.  JUST Saying.  She is such a better woman than I am. I enjoyed seeing Mal and Anne, Ev and David, Lena and Jimmy and getting more of a glimpse of their lives. I love this Series so much.

#NewRelease #DoubleReview – Famous in a Small Town by: Kylie Scott

He was looking for serenity and he may have just found it in her.

Famous in a Small Town, an all new small town, grumpy meets sunshine rock star romance, from New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott, is now available!

What chance does a small-town girl have with a world-famous rock star?

Two years after his wife’s death, rock star Garrett Hayes hasn’t moved on. But he has moved out of L.A. Where better to escape his past than a small town in the northern California mountains? If only he could get the townsfolk of Wildwood to leave him the hell alone.

Ani Bennet returned to her hometown for some much-needed serenity. The last thing she needs is a grumpy, too hot for his own good, rich and famous rock star living next door—and rent-free in her brain.

She set her fangirl tendencies aside and deleted his photo from her cell when they became neighbors. But when Garrett asks for help, she can’t say no. The problem is, spending time together is making those fangirl feelings resurface—and bringing them to a whole new level.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given the book by the author for an honest review.

Kylie is the queen on snarky language. I love that about her stories. I always know I will get banter or humor with characters. This book was another great one.
I do have to say I loved that this book wasn’t like her other rockers. Garrett is kinda a broken man. His wife and band are gone. He goes and is trying to rebuild his life and happens to move in next door to Ani. Ani is also a woman who has some issues herself to work through.
The chemistry between the two is a great slow burn. They have a delicious spark that ignites when they are together more and more. They have a lot of stuff to work thought but that is what makes the story all the more amazing of a read.
I absolutely loved it and would more of the side characters if they are developed for more books.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

Kylie has such a wonder way of telling a story with a new spin.  I enjoyed seeing Ani and Garrett’s story unfold in this small-town hideaway.

Ani ran home after being in the big city to hide away. Garrett lost the love of his life and ran away to hide from everyone and everything.  Ani never expected her new neighbor to be the one and only Garrett that she used to fangirl over. Garrett never expected to have a neighbor that could help him learn to live again. 

I loved watching these two “not” date and get to know one another.  Will Garrett’s fame be too much for Ani to handle as a small-town girl. Can Garrett make a life in a small-town after being in the spotlight for so long? I enjoyed getting to know all the characters in this book and I want to know so much more about some of them.  Smith really has intrigued me along with the other band members and would love to know more of their stories.

Review by Twinsie Angie (review from 2012 but reread book in 2021)

I heard about this book from a friend. She knows my love for Zombies and love stories and thought I would enjoy to read it. I figured that I watch The Walking Dead so it would be much like an episode of that.

I started the book and loved how it starts out with a BANG…lots of action and zombies trying to get Ali and Daniel. You can see the mistrust in her because she has seen what happens to civilization and women in general when civilizations falls. Dan is looking for hope and Ali serves as that hope for him. The book does a great job building the trust and love the two feel for each other at a time when trust and love are very far from real. The introduction of Finn comes at a crucial time because there are some not very nice “human” left in the world. The three of them begin to run for their lives when the attraction Ali feels for Finn is revealed. The three of them have to figure out what exactly is the best for all involved.

I loved the book. The zombies are there along with other dangers like bad humans and another deadly infected “thing”. The author did a great job ramping up the sexual chemistry between the 3 character AND making your stomach turn in knots over the zombie infestation. I am going to be telling everyone i know about this book because even if you are not a “fan” of zombies, you will enjoy the main plot of the story…survival and what you will do to make sure the ones you love survive!

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

I love when we get to revisit the Stage Dive crew and so to say I was stoked to resee Ev and David is an understatement.  To know Ev and David are having a baby…..I was sooooo excited.  I jumped in and read this book on my phone because I couldn’t wait to get home and read it on my kindle.

What do I think about Ev, David, and the baby surprise?  I am a little bit disappointed to be honest.  I was sad at how David acted.  I was sad at how he just “threw money at the problem to fix it.”  I mean Ev is a better person then me for damn sure.

What did I think about the rest of the family?  I was actually pretty impressed with Jimmy.  He was the one in the group who embraced fatherhood and was excited to be a good dad.  I was impressed with Mal and his humor but also his willingness to discuss family situations with his Pumpkin.  But I was a little bit sad to hear how Lizzy and Ben deal with issues.  Totally not healthy IMO.

Anyway, I was happy to see the family.  I was happy to see a new baby and learn the name.  I was happy to see everyone growing and loving.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

It has been so long since David and Ev came into my life.  I have enjoyed each book since and was so excited when I say a new Stage Dive Book was coming out and then to see it was about David and EV that was icing on my cake.

Knowing how their story began I can total understand how their child would come in the same unexpected way.  What I didn’t understand was David’s reaction to it.  I felt for Ev the stress of a new baby that you had no time to plan for and then the added stress of how your husband is acting. On a better note I loved seeing the other guys and how they have adjusted to family life. I also like seeing the ladies support and encourage Ev.

Mal is never going to change, which is not a bad thing, he kept the humor going and help lighting things up in this one. I have to say seeing all these guys with families makes me really want more of each of them. I want to dive into how they interact with each other and their kiddos.

#DualReview #BlogTour #excerpt- Fake by Kylie Scott

Fake by [Kylie Scott]

He walks the red carpet. She’s more familiar with vacuuming one.

When a scandal tarnishes the reputation of hot as hell A-lister, Patrick Walsh, he needs a reputation rescue, pronto.

Enter waitress Norah Peers–a nobody who’s average with a capital A. She’s available, dependable, and has sworn off men for the rest of her natural born life. In other words: the perfect match for a no-strings fake romance.

For the right amount of money, she can avoid waitressing and play the part of his dependable down-to-earth girlfriend. What she can’t avoid–dammit–is the growing steam between them.

But being hounded by the paparazzi and having your life dissected on social media is a panic attack in the making. And while Patrick might be a charming rogue on screen, in real life he’s a six-foot-two confusing, gorgeous, brooding grump, who keeps her at a distance . . . but also makes her feel like this bond between them might be more than just an act.

Being dumped on cue should be no big deal. Except being fake with Patrick is the realist relationship Norah has ever had. What’s a girl to do, but flip the script, and ask for a rematch made in Hollywood?

Chapter 1

He slunk into the restaurant mid-afternoon wearing his usual scowl. Ignoring the closed sign, he took a booth near the back. No one else was allowed to do this. Just him. Today’s wardrobe consisted of black jeans, Converse, and a button-down shirt. Doubtless designer. And the way those sleeves hugged his biceps . . . why, they should have been ashamed of themselves. I was this close to yelling “get a room.”

Instead, I asked, “The usual?”

Slumped down in the corner of the booth, he tipped his chin in reply. For such a tall guy, he sure went out of his way to try to hide.

I said no more. Words were neither welcomed nor wanted. Which was fine since (A) I was tired and (B) he tipped well for the peace and quiet.

Out back, Vinnie the cook was busy prepping for tonight, his knife making quick work of an onion.

“He’s here,” I said.

A smile split Vinnie’s face. He was a huge fan of the man’s action films. The ones he’d made before hitting it big time and taking on more serious dramatic roles. Him choosing to visit the restaurant every month or so made Vinnie’s life complete. Especially since the restaurant, Little Italy, was the very definition of a hole in the wall. Not somewhere generally frequented by the Hollywood elite. Meanwhile, I was less of a fan, but still a fan. You know.

“Get him his beer,” Vinnie ordered.

Like I didn’t know my job. Sheesh.

He was busy with his cell by the time I placed the Peroni in front of him. No glass. He drank straight from the bottle like an animal. Just then, a woman in a red sweater dress and tan five-inch-heel booties strode in through the front door.

“I’m sorry, we’re closed,” I said.

“I’m with him.” She headed straight for his booth and slid into the other side, giving the man a dour look. “You can’t just walk out, Patrick. You’re going to have to choose one of them.”

“Nope.” He took a pull from his beer. “They all sucked.”

“There had to be at least one that would do.”

“Not even a little.”

She sighed. “Keep this up and you’ll be obsolete by next week. Beyond help. Forgotten.”

“Go away, Angie.”

“Just another talented but trash male in Hollywood. That’s what they’re saying on social media.”

“I don’t give a shit.”

“Liar,” she drawled.

I wasn’t quite sure what to do. Obviously they knew each other, but he did not seem to want her here. And she really wasn’t supposed to be here. Vinnie had okayed after-hours entry to only one person. On the other hand, if I asked her to leave, she’d probably sic her lawyers on me. She looked the type.

The woman spied me hovering. “Get me a glass of red.”

“She’s not staying,” countermanded Patrick.

Angie didn’t move an inch. “They were all viable options. Pliant. Young. Pretty. Discreet. Nothing weird or kinky in their backgrounds.”

“That might have made them more interesting.”

“Interesting women is what got you into this mess.” The woman frowned, taking me in. Still hovering. One perfectly shaped brow rose in question. “Yes? Is there a problem?”

Now it was Patrick’s turn to sigh and give me a nod. He was so dreamy with his jaw and cheekbones and his everything. Real classic Hollywood handsome. Especially with his short light brown hair in artful disarray and a hint of stubble. Sometimes it was hard not to stare. Which is probably why his personality tended to scream “leave me alone.”

I headed for the small bar area at the back of the restaurant to fetch the wine like a good little waitress.

“We shouldn’t be discussing this here,” said Angie, giving the room a disdainful sniff. Talk about judgy. I thought the raw brick walls and chunky wood tables were cool. Give or take Vinnie’s collection of old black-and-white photos of Los Angeles freeways. Who knew what that was about?

Patrick slumped down even further. “I’m not going back there. I’m done with it.”

“This isn’t safe.” Angie looked around nervously. “Let’s—”

“We’re fine. I’ve been coming here for years.”

“You just got dropped from a big-budget film, Patrick,” she said, exasperation in her tone. “The industry may not find you bankable right now, but I’m sure gossip about you is still selling just fine. This week at least.”

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book for an honest review by the author.

*Sigh*  Another great read by Kylie.  I loved the chemistry between Patrick and Norah!  I loved that Patrick was a smart man and listened to Norah.  I loved that Norah was a normal chick.  She was me.  One of my favorite things about Kylie’s writing is her ability to make hilarious banter.

Norah was a waitress doing her daily grind when she is made an interesting offer.  Patrick the playboy needs a girlfriend to clean up his image and what would be more perfect then a normal, everyday girl next door type???

Norah is the Sunshine carebear while Patrick would be described as Grumpy carebear.  LOL  I enjoyed the storylines they had and the story lines of secondary characters.  I am excited for the series and can’t wait to see more of these two in the series.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

I enjoy Kylie’s stories they are full of humor and banter between the individuals. This one was no different.

Norah is a simple girl the plain Jane. She works multiple jobs so her grandmother can live in an assisted living home. Everything she does is for her grandmother. One of her jobs she is a waitress in an Italian restaurant where Hollywood icon Patrick  Walsh comes to get away and eat in peace.

When Patrick’s carrier starts to tank and he needs to turn his persona around he propositions Norah to be his fake girlfriend. Which Norah takes him up on his offer and now she can put her grandmother in an A+ assisted living home. Norah knows she will end up in the spot light but she as no idea what that really consists of until she finds herself in on center stage and everything about her comes out to the public.

I enjoyed this story Hollywood start falls for the average girl. Kylie’s characters are so life like you can see this happening in the real world. These two were great there was a spark between them and the banter they have is great. This is a slow burn kinda book really Patrick is so brooding let feeling out then pulls back. I enjoyed seeing Patrick and Norah’s relationship come to life and then deal with being in the public eye. I cannot wait to see more of this series.

#NewRelease #SeriesStarter #DualReview- Fake, West Hollywood #1 by Kylie Scott

 

Fake by [Kylie Scott]

He walks the red carpet. She’s more familiar with vacuuming one.

When a scandal tarnishes the reputation of hot as hell A-lister, Patrick Walsh, he needs a reputation rescue, pronto.

Enter waitress Norah Peers–a nobody who’s average with a capital A. She’s available, dependable, and has sworn off men for the rest of her natural born life. In other words: the perfect match for a no-strings fake romance.

For the right amount of money, she can avoid waitressing and play the part of his dependable down-to-earth girlfriend. What she can’t avoid–dammit–is the growing steam between them.

But being hounded by the paparazzi and having your life dissected on social media is a panic attack in the making. And while Patrick might be a charming rogue on screen, in real life he’s a six-foot-two confusing, gorgeous, brooding grump, who keeps her at a distance . . . but also makes her feel like this bond between them might be more than just an act.

Being dumped on cue should be no big deal. Except being fake with Patrick is the realist relationship Norah has ever had. What’s a girl to do, but flip the script, and ask for a rematch made in Hollywood?

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book for an honest review by the author.

*Sigh*  Another great read by Kylie.  I loved the chemistry between Patrick and Norah!  I loved that Patrick was a smart man and listened to Norah.  I loved that Norah was a normal chick.  She was me.  One of my favorite things about Kylie’s writing is her ability to make hilarious banter.

Norah was a waitress doing her daily grind when she is made an interesting offer.  Patrick the playboy needs a girlfriend to clean up his image and what would be more perfect then a normal, everyday girl next door type???

Norah is the Sunshine carebear while Patrick would be described as Grumpy carebear.  LOL  I enjoyed the storylines they had and the story lines of secondary characters.  I am excited for the series and can’t wait to see more of these two in the series.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

I enjoy Kylie’s stories they are full of humor and banter between the individuals. This one was no different.

Norah is a simple girl the plain Jane. She works multiple jobs so her grandmother can live in an assisted living home. Everything she does is for her grandmother. One of her jobs she is a waitress in an Italian restaurant where Hollywood icon Patrick  Walsh comes to get away and eat in peace.

When Patrick’s carrier starts to tank and he needs to turn his persona around he propositions Norah to be his fake girlfriend. Which Norah takes him up on his offer and now she can put her grandmother in an A+ assisted living home. Norah knows she will end up in the spot light but she as no idea what that really consists of until she finds herself in on center stage and everything about her comes out to the public.

I enjoyed this story Hollywood start falls for the average girl. Kylie’s characters are so life like you can see this happening in the real world. These two were great there was a spark between them and the banter they have is great. This is a slow burn kinda book really Patrick is so brooding let feeling out then pulls back. I enjoyed seeing Patrick and Norah’s relationship come to life and then deal with being in the public eye. I cannot wait to see more of this series.
