Wicked White by Michelle A. Valentine
After his mother dies, rock star Ace White—lead singer of the red-hot band Wicked White—is done with the celebrity game. The phony people, the meaningless one-night stands: he doesn’t want any of it anymore. Quitting in the middle of a sold-out tour, Ace sets out to find some place—any place—where he can be alone.
Aspiring singer Iris Easton’s life has never been easy. First, her mother walked out on her when she was a kid. Now she’s buried in debt, weeks after losing her beloved grandmother. When a mysterious and sexy new guy moves in next door, Iris can’t help but be drawn to his soulful gaze. She can tell there’s something from his past haunting him—something he’s not telling her.
Just as Ace starts falling for Iris, the media go on a worldwide hunt to find the missing rocker. Will true love conquer all, or will the truth be the very thing that tears the couple apart?
3 out of 5 stars
The overall story line had me interested from start to finish, I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next.
This was a fast paced, easy read. Not super descriptive or in depth, just a good story that I was interested in. I loved Iris and liked Ace. I thought their interactions were great and and enjoyed them coming together. I really liked the two of them as a couple, sometimes I felt their connection, sometimes I didn’t, but I definitely liked both of them and liked them together.
There was some hotness which was great and some drama near the end that I enjoyed. Ace and Iris had some back and forth moments that I found frustrating, but after that it wrapped up nicely but I felt it was a little rushed.
Even though I wasn't blown away, I was into the story and I couldn't seem to stop reading. This was a good read for me. :-)
