So don't go in expecting a standard quick romance novel set-up, where you know exactly who ends up with whom from the beginning and you see the expected HEA within 8 hours. This book served to show us more of his starting point in that journey than his finish line, but with (at least) three books more to come that’s to be expected. Reid in particular has a lot more growing up to do, which I’m guessing he continues to do as the series moves along. Emma was my favorite of the two, so I’m hoping we’ll hear more from her in the next book but haven’t wanted to peek ahead to see yet. I’m very glad the series isn’t over and these kids have a lot more life to live – I’m downloading the next book as I type, feeling confident that it’ll be as fun and juicy as this one! There are two main characters, Reid and Emma, and the story flips back and forth between them. That’s pretty much all you need to know to tell whether or not you’re in the mood for this book. And I do mean *soap opera*, and in a good way. This is an older teen soap opera on a movie set, and must have been just what I was in the mood for because I gobbled it up over the weekend. Graham has no problem keeping a handle on the situation, until he finds himself attracted to Reid’s costar, Emma, the girl Reid is pursuing full-throttle with his standard arsenal of charm, good looks, and arrogance. Besides, his friend Brooke Cameron snatched up the role of the bitchy hot girl and could use his help as a buffer, because her ex is the star. Indie actor Graham Douglas isn’t overly picky when it comes to film roles. The Problem? Emma is experiencing a building desire to be normal, and starring in a silly, modernized adaptation of one of her favorite novels - opposite the very hot Reid Alexander - isn’t going to advance that aspiration. Nailing the lead role in a wide-release film sent her agent, father, and stepmother into raptures, and should have done the same for her. The universe is lining up nicely to grant whatever he wants, as usual, until he’s confronted with unexpected obstacles on location - like a bitter ex-girlfriend and a rival for the first girl to spark his genuine interest in years.Įmma Pierce just got her big break after more than a decade of filming commercials for grape juice, department stores, and tampons, and more recently, bit parts in made-for-TV movies. His costar is a virtual unknown with whom he had blazing hot chemistry during her auditions.

When Hollywood It Boy Reid Alexander arrives on location to shoot his next movie, his goals are the same as always: film another blockbuster hit, and enjoy his celebrity status to the fullest while doing so.
