Sophie, a news journalist, dating the very sophisticated business exec, Tim...then enter into the scene, rock god, Dan... a definate mixture for disaster. Who will Sophie end up with? You might be just as surprised as I was.This book was a slow start for me, however, as devoted to the band books as I am, I pushed on and surprisingly, I actually ended up enjoying the book more than I thought I would.I love the characters and the story and though I thought Sophie stuck her foot in her mouth a little too much for me, this was a real getting to know yourself kind of book, with a fairy tale romance built in. Sophie had to figure out who she was and who she was best with.I will say, when Sophie broke up with one of the two men, that man got really angry and called the other guy a "turd." Though this was an intense scene in this book, I found myself giggling. I know this was a translation issue but I found it so funny. He was so angry he actually called that guy a "turd." The thought of an angry guy in my world calling anyone a "turd" out of hate, just strikes me as funny.I did enjoy the book, but because it was a slow start I had to push myself to finish reading it though I desperately wanted to put it away and wait for a snowy day to finish.
