Back Cover
Chase
Brighton is a dick. Elle Holloway needs a job that will get her off of her
friends couch. When one practically lands in her lap, she is determined to snag
it even though the job description is vague. But when she learns that she will
be working for the world famous rock star Chase Brighton, her confidence begins
to waiver. Chase might make her heart race, but his attitude sucks. He is cocky
and moody. He even accuses her of wanting her fifteen minutes of fame. But he
is also a single dad to the most adorable little girl—and he needs Elle to be
his nanny.
Heading out
on tour, the last thing Chase needs is to be confined on a bus with a woman as
sexy as Elle. It’s enough to drive a man insane as his thoughts are filled with
fantasies of her instead of the music he should be focused on. To keep her at
arm’s length, he gives Elle a hard time at every opportunity. As their
attraction grows, they struggle to keep it professional, but sometimes fate has
plans of its own. When the downsides of Chase’s fame pour a cold dose of
reality on them, can they find a way to make things work, or will their
differences pull them apart?
My review
It’s the
first book I read from this author and since it’s one of my favorite type of
romance and she is one of the organizer of Ignite your soul, I wanted to give
it a chance. Once again, I glad I choose wisely. I almost read it on my way
back to Ottawa. I couldn’t put the book down. Unfortunately, I had a few
chapters left to read, but it didn’t take long before I reach the end.
If you
reach fanfic or stories on Wattpad, you will probably read a lot of stories
similar to this one. You know the woman who doesn’t look for fame and doesn’t
like rockstar, but she ending up falling for him and the singer is a dick at
the beginning, but ending up hiding a heart of gold. That’s exactly it, but it
what was looking for when I read this novel.
Like in
most book, it was hard to choose a favorite character, this time I will go with
Elle, the main female character. She is not afraid to step in and say what she
really thinks. I think it’s important to have that kind of honesty when you are
working for a rockstar. You can say she was attracted to him at the beginning,
but she was not a crazy fan who wanted to do anything to have him in her bed. I
like her motherly side when she is with Ivy even though she is not her child.
My second
favorite character is Ivy. She is a secondary one, but she is so cute that I
wanted to hug her the whole time. Even though, she doesn’t have a mom, she
seems happy and I need that kind of joy in my life at the moment.
Chase is in
third place and not because I didn’t like him, but I have a little preference
for the two other characters before him. I like his evolution. He was a
complete ass at the beginning, but the reader will understand it was because he
was protecting his daughter. He had a lot of females after him, so he didn’t
want anyone that he couldn’t trust around Ivy. He seems like a great dad
despite his busy schedule and his heart is bigger that we could imagine when he
first met Elle and he is more than a popular man. The reader will realize at
the end that he is more complicated that this and I think it was I like the
most about him.
I recommend
it, if you like rockstar romance. I had an amazing time reading it. I did not
see the hours flew while I was flipping the page. It was great to be in that
world and having fun for a while.
Excerpts
" Look, Mark said some wonderful
things and told me that you would be up for just about anything. More
importantly, you are the first woman in a long time that hasn’t practically
fainted after hearing his name. "
I sighed. " In all honestly, I need this job more than I can express. There would
be no risk of my screwing it up by getting doe-eyed just because he is famous. " (p.5)
