Luke Anderson left the very pregnant Marlene to go and fulfill his dreams of becoming a rock star. It wasn’t her plan to become a single parent at a young age, but when he went away, she had no choice but to stand up and be a woman to her daughter. Since then, she had vowed never to love again. Now, she was offered to go to Paris to start a new life with her daughter – it was a dream come true for her. One thing that is standing in her way is the presence of her ex in town. Oh yes, after four years, he decided to come back and enter their lives.Luke Anderson’s dream had come true. But one experience had taught him what is really important in life – family. At a young age, he ran away from Marlene and their unborn child, and it had caused him deep regret. He was given a chance to start over again when his tour stops at their place – with 3 days on his clock – will he be able to do it? Will he convince Marlene, and most especially Nil, their daughter to give him a second chance?Raising a kid on your own can be a heavy task for any single parent. Juggling jobs, wanting to be the best, and providing for your child needs is a whole lot of effort, most especially when you’re eighteen. So, it was quite understandable why Marlene was mad at him, why she had a new man on her life who doesn’t spark her plugs and why she’s going to Paris with him. She gave Luke Anderson her heart, and he broke it into pieces. She needed someone stable not just for her, but for Nil as well. What she doesn’t need is a man who is constantly on the road, leaving her and her bed empty most days.He’s every girl’s fantasy. For a rock star, Luke Anderson is a saint. I can’t believe that after all these years --- After that confession, my hatred for him had shrunk. Sure, he left to provide for them, and give them money even though all Marlene ever needed was him. But deep down, he’s a good guy who just wanted to be the best father and the best husband for their child. He just needed a few wake up calls.Marlene is surrounded by girls whom I completely adore – from her feisty grandmother, to her mom, and her best friend. All just wanted what was the best for her and for her baby, even though sometimes it had overstepped the boundaries. And of course Nil, who wouldn’t fall in love with this cute little girl?!A short read that I had finished in one sitting, Love of a Rockstar can be an awesome read for people who like to read about love and second chances.★ARC Copy was given in exchange for an honest review.★
