Absolute love!
There were so many emotions in this slow burn M/M romance that it gradually buried it's way into my heart.

I truly loved this love story about Becks, country singer and his friend/fake boyfriend, Nicky.

The story was slowburn, full of questining one's decisions and feelings, dealing with rejection, fearing not being good or simply enough, battling the vultures that are the paparazzi, and dealing with the fallout of one impulsive act.

The characters were spot on.
Nicky the quiet, sweet gay boy. Becks the upbeat, goofball singer.
They are both one of the good ones and their love for each other is so obvious for the readers, yet they struggle to grasp it.
What I loved most is how they both want the best but still end up messing up everything. And those mistakes brings the so close to the reader that I couldn't help falling for them.

The side characters were great also, providing detailed background and constant great conversations that pushed the story forward.

There were some funny parts but mostly I was just lost in the emotional turmlil of both men. I cried a lot and I honestly felt reall, close to both Nicky and Becks.

This book was so not what I expected but I highly recommend it to the lovers of love stories.
