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?

Hire a voice actor next time
My heart sank when I saw the author was narrating the book too. Her accents are TERRIBLE.
Hayes sounded French half the time which really took us away from the story

Not to my taste, a tadd crass.
To be honest, most of it I found uncomfortable to listen to. Between the cringe worthy name dropping of designer brands, to the painfully bad English accent, to the repetitive and predictable sex scenes, it was not to my personal taste.

Well Done Robinne Lee
The warmth and ease of Robinne Lee voice makes the story that much more interesting. RL switches between characters effortlessly making you believe more than one person is narrating the book. Love the story. Love the writer. Definitely recommend.
P.S RL - Why? 😩😊

A book about Harry Styles! 😂😂😂
Loved it! Fun and easy to listen. A holiday romance but prolonged. Exactly what I needed to distract me from work, being locked at home and not allowed to meet friends and travel. This book is not for serious book readers, but someone looking to break the day and just have a bit of a laugh. Enjoy! 🙌

Disappointing ending
This could if filled fantastically is with hope for just living how life feels but sadly had to do the ridiculously stupid “I have to end this to save ….” Save what exactly why couldn’t this of worked why follow the social stupidity. Such a great book of love and that’s what it should if ended with.. love because it didn’t save anyone from anyone they both ended up miserable …

Fine, but icky at points…
I found it ok, but struggled to find the relationship okay… She keeps referring to him “a boy”, also in her mind, would have have felt less icky if she actually saw him as a man…
Fine, if you can ignore the ick and english accent 😉

Indulgent and heartbreaking
I loved this story. I can’t wait for it to be realised in the movie. It was a brilliant take on an indulgent fantasy coming to life, with very real and heartbreaking consequences. If you love a well written love story that paints a clear picture of the central characters, leaving you routing for them, then you’ll love this book.

Painful accents
I LOVE this book, the story is magical and I adored the characters. However….the English accents are so painful that I almost gave up. I wish they’d used a voice actor, not the author. It ruined one of the most perfect stories.
