Midnight Duet by Jen Comfort
Did not finish book. Stopped at 27%.
I thought I might enjoy the play on Phantom of the Opera ... reversing the roles. Here, it's a female with a scarred face (she had been playing Fantine in LesMis). Evita is also mentioned (the song Don't Cry For Me Argentina is anyway). Andrew Lloyd Webber's name comes up. Phantom does not ;) There's "Christopher" the lead singer in a heavy metal band, and Raul (running a competing business), a Paris (Nevada) Opera house that might just be haunted. A song ... "Demon of Music" ...
I appreciate KindleUnlimited - to be able to borrow a book as part of a subscription and not feel like I've wasted money, just a little time, if it turns out the book isn't for me. Thus was the case here. I got to page 95/28% ... not that far, but a term another reviewer used ... "cock talk" began taking over ... spicy books just aren't something I enjoy. It's not sexy, it's cringeworthy. And I feared what would be coming in the remaining portion of the book. Best to just move on methinks ...
A kindle search showed there was a lot of proFanity (x93) and I was turned off early enough, even though I'm sure things get much more explicit. I know some enjoy that.
