Why I wrote STAR STRUCK

When I was a little girl I had two dreams - to become a famous singer and a famous author. I’m lucky enough to say that my dream of becoming an author came true (minus the whole famous thing). But I never realized my dream of being a famous singer.

However, the nice thing about being an author is that I get to live vicariously through my characters every day. That’s how the idea for STAR STRUCK was born. I thought it would be fun to write a contemporary romance about two rockstars. This way I get the best of both worlds. This book combines both of my loves – writing and music.

I had a blast experiencing Star and Beckett’s rockstar lifestyle and their budding romance. I also loved writing the lyrics to their songs. I hope you enjoy their story as much as I loved writing it.


BLURB

I don’t go for bad boys, or rockers.
And I don’t believe in love at first sight.
Until I see Beckett.
And things only get worse when I hear him sing.
There is no one like him.
The problem is that he wants nothing to do with me.
And I know I should stay away from him.
It’s the smart thing to do.
Only when it comes to Beckett I don’t want to do the smart thing. He makes me want to take a risk.
I just hope he decides to take a risk on me too.

Review

I absolutely loved this book!  A fast page turner, loveable characters, humor and well written.  Star was easy to embrace, while Beckett was even easier to fall in love with.  If your the type to have fictional boyfriends, Beckett is the one.  ::swoon::

The story starts where every story starts, from the beginning, and from there on I was captivated, glued to the book like there was no end in sight.  With the growing bond the characters have, the questions that arise as I was growing to love both Star and Beckett, there was no way I could stand to put this book down.  I had to know both Star and Beckett's story.  I wanted to know what made them both tick and what brought them to this place in their lives.

By the time I got the answers to the questions I had, the author threw in another twist, one I was not expecting and wanted to smash my Kindle against the wall for.  Yes it was that intense!  **Don't worry my kindle is safe, as I refrained from doing so.** Star Struck is a must read for anyone that loves a good Contemporary Romance Novel.  A book I would definitely recommend.
