3.0

Rosie is a high-school senior having trouble writing her personal statement. Vance is an Hollywood actor with the fame of a bad boy. When a new scandal pops up, Vance is forced to hide in the same town Rosie lives, and when the two come across each other, they don't see eye to eye. Rosie's has been a fan of Vance and his movies, but the reality is different from what she saw on screen. Vance doesn't want her around, but when Rosie ruins an expensive book, to pay it back she works in Vance's and his guardian's house.

It's a cute high school rom-com.

2.5/5 it definitely didn’t feel as good as the first book in this series but still was a fun and easy read, especially since all things considered i’m not the target age group for this novel

This was so wholesome ☺️
Nothing better than reading some fluffy, nerdy AND kitschy book-lover-centred YA romance to cheer you up when you’re having a bad day.
Gimme all them tropes, baby!

I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! It was just a breath of fresh air. Ashley Postin had my heart screaming to look to the stars, aim, and ignite!!!
I care so much about the actual contents of this story and the micro fan world of starfeild as well.
Just positively wonderful and full of life.

such a cute fast read! I adored how Rosie stuck up to herself and kept telling the one guy no so many times and her friends being there for her! 

Also Vance being the guy from the cosplaying event was such a meet cute I adored it, and the banter between them wasn’t annoying. The outcome of this book was really well done and all happened so fast yet slow? Just so good!
