Emily Watts just wants a weekend break from the workaholic hours she's taken on to keep her business — a popular fashion-snark web site — up and running. What she gets is overnight celebrity and a career-killing media scandal. While taking time out to attend a concert in support of friend Jesse Cinder, a struggling musician, Emily meets Cory Sampson, the lead singer of a chart-topping rock band. When she agrees to a date with Cory, making entertainment headlines is the last thing she expects. Even so, it's a minor surprise by comparison to her discovery that in the music world, media notoriety trumps all. Tabloid allegations erupt when Cory and fame-hungry Jesse use Emily for personal gain, and her tarnished image spells disaster — personally and professionally. To save the web site and writing career she's made her life and dream, Emily must go from being a pawn in the Hollywood headline game to becoming the media mastermind.
Alright, so when I decided to review this book, I was hoping it wasn't like the other girl falls in love with rock star books that I've read in the past. Trust me, I've read a lot of these type of books, best thing about this one, it wasn't the typical boy meets girl, girl falls in love and they live happily ever after books I've read lately. This one caught my attention and kept it till the very last page.
So with all that said, I want to talk about the characters a bit. I really enjoyed how realistic the characters in this book felt while I was reading. Corey became one of the characters that I rooted for, even though he was a bit upsetting at one point. I don't want to give anything away, so I'm going to say this, these characters make you love them and root for them.
Jennifer Farwell's writing style is something that I've been looking for as a reader. She doesn't tell you the story, she shows you and for that I will read anything by this fantastic author. For this writer to grab my attention the way she did and hold it is something that doesn't happen very often for me. With all the twists and turns in this book, I couldn't wait to read more. Actually found myself rushing to read each page, because I had to know what was going to happen. I finished this book in a few hours and couldn't put it down.
I want to thank CLP Blog tours for letting me be part of this tour and bringing this incredible book to my attention.
