When Stars Collide by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
3.0
This is not this author’s best, but it’s not her worst either. If you haven’t read this author before, don’t start with this book. If you have read this author before, you might be surprised to learn that the female main character is NOT poor (which is the case for most of her books I have read). Having a book that heavily references opera, something I know nothing about, was also a nice change of pace. I mostly liked this book up until a couple of big reveals. On top of that, there’s the whole break up scene that every contemporary romance must have and this one makes as much sense as they usually do - which is to say it doesn’t make sense at all.
So basically if this story had it’s ending changed, I would have rated this higher. But as it is, it’s good just not great. I’ll still keep reading these books by SEP though.

Olivia is being stalked/assaulted and the perpetrator is someone you literally cannot guess because they enter the story almost immediately before they are revealed - and this happens twice!So basically if this story had it’s ending changed, I would have rated this higher. But as it is, it’s good just not great. I’ll still keep reading these books by SEP though.
