Who Would Like This Book:
If you love your romances with a strong celebrity twist and lots of flirty banter, this one's right up your alley. Jenny is a country superstar hiding out from Hollywood drama, while Noah is the grumpy but swoon-worthy guy with secrets of his own. Their chemistry is undeniable, their dynamic is equal parts feisty and sweet, and there are even a couple of adorable dogs thrown in for extra charm! Fans of contemporary romance and feel-good rom-coms - especially those who like a good opposites-attract setup - will enjoy this ride.
Who May Not Like This Book:
Some readers weren't thrilled with the main characters' behavior - particularly Noah, who at times comes across as brooding or even downright unpleasant. If you're looking for a romance with unique twists, this one might feel a bit predictable. There's also a fair amount of steam, which won't appeal to everyone. Those who prefer more mature or consistent character development might find the story lacking at times, and if you're not a fan of angsty or miscommunication-driven plotlines, you might lose patience.

From The Publisher:
USA TODAY BESTSELLER • Lauren Layne brings all the unpredictable heat of Blurred Lines to an all-new cast of characters! Country music’s favorite good girl is hiding away from the world—only to find herself bunking with a guy who makes her want to be a little bad.
Jenny Dawson moved to Nashville to write music, not get famous. But when her latest record goes double platinum, Jenny’s suddenly one of the town’s biggest stars—and the center of a tabloid scandal connecting her with a pop star she’s barely even met.
With paparazzi tracking her every move, Jenny flees to a remote mansion in Louisiana to write her next album. The only hiccup is the unexpected presence of a brooding young caretaker named Noah, whose foul mouth and snap judgments lead to constant bickering—and serious heat.
Noah really should tell Jenny that he’s Preston Noah Maxwell Walcott, the owner of the estate where the feisty country singer has made her spoiled self at home. But the charade gives Noah a much-needed break from his own troubles, and before long, their verbal sparring is indistinguishable from foreplay.
But as sizzling nights give way to quiet pillow talk, Noah begins to realize that Jenny’s almost as complicated as he is. To fit into each other’s lives, they’ll need the courage to face their problems together—before the outside world catches up to them.
