This book is so so cute but so real. Grey and Ethan need a boost in their career so their PR agent puts them together in a PR relationship that turns into so much more. They’re both dealing with things from their past and have big dreams and goals that they’re looking to accomplish and realize they may need each other for more than just appearances. I thought the authors take on fame was brilliant. I was enthralled from the first page as it felt like getting a back stage pass into the life of a celebrity but it also gave a realistic view of addiction that I’ve rarely seen in books. Genuinely well told story and I can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it.

I enjoyed large parts of this, but the pacing felt really off sometimes and the way that the more serious topics were handled didn't always sit well with me. Still, I liked these characters and their dynamic was compelling, and I appreciate that this takes on a different structure than the typical romance (although, spoiler? there is still a third act break up).
