MY SYNOPSIS
Imagine This: Your ex-boyfriend who dumped you has
turned famous. Now he wants you back and is putting your name up in all the
tabloids.
You are
pissed at him. All you need is a quiet life in the country with your new house
you are trying to renovate which the villagers believe is haunted.
Tabloids are
asking of your whereabouts. Guys everywhere are confessing you broke their
hearts. You are now the girl every Londoner wants to date. Even bartenders in
the little village you’ve retired to, want you.
Your
ex-boyfriend though, wouldn’t stop pursuing you till you come around. Because
just as his single inspired by you has become number one on every chart, you
are number on his heart.
Jules’ papped life summarised for
your delight.
MY REVIEW
Great storyline.
See above. When I read the blurb of this book I knew I wanted to read it.
Nothing like a title about a girl who gets famous overnight for breaking a
pop-star’s heart and running away from the tabloid gossip and the paparazzi. A
star to the storyline.
The main
characters are good. Jules is just your relatable girl-next-door character who
doesn’t admire a life of being papped. Guy Rawson, the celebrity model
now-turned musician is also a favourite. Throughout the book you’d be rooting
for these characters to sort out their mess and live happily ever after. A
star.
Other
characters you’d love are Terri, the interior designer who’s quite funny.
There’s also Rich, the bartender who has the hots for our lead, and his dog,
Max who’s always jumping on strangers. Oh, and there’s also a funny newspaper
man in the country. And a model who fancies herself as too cool to hang out
with everyone. A star to these characters.
I liked this
book. But I wish I ‘loved, loved’ it. I felt the writer could have done more with
the story. I wish it wasn’t so predictable. I wish it was more than OK,
So my
rating: Three out of five stars.
You could
get this book on amazon.
I recommend
this book to anyone who wants a title based on the fame-theme with lover-boy
pop-stars and heroines you’d find relatable.
My work not
done here. Off to post my review on Goodreads.
