A review by chloe_liese
Coffee Girl by Sophie Sinclair

This was just the lighthearted, swoony, sweet romance I needed after reading a really emotionally heavy story. I don't often read rockstar romances, and I don't follow country music, so I was nervous that out of my own lack of background in this story world I might fail to connect, but wow was I wrong, and that to me is a true sign of good storytelling: the power to draw a reader into a book, to build a world that's inviting and relatable, even if the reader has very little baseline knowledge in the story's subject.

This was such a fantastic example of a rockstar romance done well. The pacing flowed, the story sucked me right in, the chemistry was sparkling but not overwrought, the writing descriptive enough without getting longwinded or redundant, and I felt the representation of the challenges of love between the famous star and the "ordinary" girl was realistic for its depiction of insecurity, public scrutiny, and the duplicity that often plagues stardom.

Kiki and Sarah's solid woman supporting woman friendship was also a star of this story. They have each other's backs, they bring out the best in each other, and they don't break each other's trust. Yay!

Hats off to Sophie for sucking me into the Coffee Girl World. I'm looking forward to reading Sarah's story in The Makeup Artist, coming this spring!!
