INTRODUCING YOUR NEXT OBSESSION.....

THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS HAYES CAMPBELL.

To the media, he's the enigmatic front-man of a record-breaking boyband.

To his fans, he's the boy of their dreams.

To his label, he's gold-dust.

And to Solène Marchand, he's the pretty face that's plastered over her teenage daughter's bedroom wall.

Until a chance meeting throws Hayes and Solène together....

The attraction is instant. The chemistry is electric. The affair is Solène's secret.

But can it really stay that way forever?

So good, page turner in audible terms

Listen, i’m shattered and elated. It was so lovely and really shines a light on online bullying and the role the media plays.

Amazing love affair

I love how the book was written, and how intelligent the writer is. I can’t wait for a book 2.

Get the tissues

A love story that ends as it begins. Cruelty of age circumstance. Real and angry and challenging you could feel it all.
For me a desperately tragic story.

Atmosphere

As wild as it is, story feels real. The narrator sucks you in and characters come to life. You can feel the love, passion and desperation in their voice. The story stays with you.

Loved this story.

This was a popular read among my friends so gave it a go. I really enjoyed it. It’s just a nice “easy read”, not ground shaking but good enough that I finished it pretty fast.

So good but so sad

This could’ve been a five star review but the ending is annoyingly heartbreaking. It’s worth the ride though, funny, witty and empowering

It's a complicated love story

I enjoyed Haze character. He was growing and evolving through the story. We got why Solene fell for him. So it had a good start and a good writing, but it felt to me that the author put too much angst, even when it was a bit forced.
