If you know me, you know I’m a sucker for angsty, dramatic romance. The more suspenseful, the more dramatic, the better. This one satisfied that love at least slightly and I really enjoyed it. Oakley, a pop star bad boy, really ended up growing on me throughout the book and his character development. Vaughn was a really relatable and likable character the entire book. Who doesn’t love the idea of a normal girl being asked (and paid big time) to date a celebrity? It was so much fun to watch the two of them attempt to fight off falling in love and all the drama that ensued. Only giving this one four stars because of the ending. There is a lot of built-up drama with a relatively huge revelation that has almost no resolution in the end. Other than that, it was an amazing read!
