I was hooked from the very beginning of the story. This was a really heartfelt enjoyable debut. Grey & Ethans's story about the behind the scenes in Hollywood; on how difficult it is to deal with being under the limelight, keeping their private lives private and the struggles they face just like every person in this world. You follow them as they come together to help try to rebrand their fame, tackle their demons, and fall in love in the process. It was a very enjoyable read for me. I will definitely be checking out further books from this author.

I really enjoy the book....however - It felt great reading the first half of the book, truly intrigued with the characters; fun, mysterious, sexy AF but then when we got to Ava's past, it felt flat for me like it was just thrown in there. After that with Alex's family drama it was starting to pick up again but of course the ending was drawn out too much and was just okay. I will say that they story did gave me hope and excitement for the side characters. Will definitely continue to read the remaining of the series.
