I loved Myah Ariel's first book, When I Think of You, and I'm glad I loved her second, No Ordinary Love too. Though to be fair, I'm a hugeee fan of romances where one of them is an entertainer, so there's no way this could've been bad.
The romance really delivered, it was so sweet. I loved how Ella left her awful husband, and allowed herself to enter something new with Miles, despite everything that could've gone wrong. They deserved more page time as a couple though, we didn't get enough!!
The pop culture references were on point, they made perfect sense in the context of the story. And all the music did as well.
The side characters get a mention, because they carried a lot of the story, and weren't just there when it was convenient, never to be seen again. The glam squad showed up for Ella continuously, and she showed up for them right back. That's friendship right there.
I'm hoping we'll get a spinoff in the future, there's at least one more story that needs to be told (hint hint Myah Ariel AHEM AHEM).
