Sarah
When I met Cameron we hit it off like macaroni and cheese. Now we’re practically inseparable but I’ve been hiding the fact that I’m in love with him. Truly, madly, deeply. He finally figured it out and everything changed between us forever. That’s not my biggest problem though. You see, Cameron just landed the role of a lifetime and, despite how he feels about me, I’m worried I’m about to play second fiddle to the bright lights and temptations of Hollywood.Cameron
I think I’ve loved Sarah since the first moment I laid eyes on her. It goes without saying she’s funny, smart, and has curves for days, but it’s more than that. She’s my light in this cynical, messed up world called Hollywood. I’d do anything to be with her, but I keep screwing up what should be easy. Now the studio is pressuring me to date my new co-star to drum up interest in the movie and all I can think is maybe Sarah and I weren’t meant to be.Lucky Star is a story about friendship, love, and surviving Hollywood with your heart intact. If you love reading about fierce, independent heroines and heros who aren't afraid to love them, this book is for you.
***About Author***
Rebecca has always loved writing stories. When she won a writing contest in third grade (a 1000-word epic tale about her teddy bear, Max), she announced she would someday become an author. When she wasn’t writing her own stories, she was sneaking copies of her mom’s paperback romances to read late into the night. (Which, thinking back, was probably not appropriate.) After graduating from the University of Pittsburgh in 2000 with a degree in Journalism, she embarked on a career in technology public relations in Silicon Valley, working for some of the country’s hottest start-ups and publicly-traded companies. In 2014 she retired from corporate drudgery to write full time.
Rebecca lives in Dublin, Ireland, with her husband. When not writing, she is exploring her new city and traveling across Europe searching for inspiration for her next story. (Hint: it involves travel and rugby.)
***Our Thoughts***
Kassiah: I seem to really love superstar romances and BFFs to more, so I was pretty psyched to jump on the tour for this book. Sarah and Cameron have been best friends for years–but they’ve secretly had feelings for each other almost as long. A night of drunken revelry leads to a hookup that neither of them know how to deal with. Just when they’re honest with each other and realize that they want more than friendship, Cameron gets the role of a lifetime. With it comes the expectation that he publicly “date” his co-star. Will Cameron and Sarah’s relationship survive when it’s so new?
I was surprised by how much I liked this book. It was sexy and fun, without too much heartclench and just the right amount of drama. I liked both of these characters and wanted to see them get together. I thought both of their insecurities were realistic, and Sarah was particularly relatable. Cameron was sexy and I really liked him. This book definitely needs editing, but I read an advanced copy and hope that’s what it was. I’m not sure what to say about it if that’s not the case. I haven’t read anything by this author before, but I will definitely be checking her out now.
