Claire Boston has literally smashed it out of the park on her debut novel.I saw the cover and thought HOTI read the description and went hmm I’ll give it a go.I’m sooooo glad I did.I for one gladly put my hand up as a groupie. Give me a bad boy rockstar and I’m putty in his hands.This book was not like that. And you know what? I liked it so much better for it.Adrian Hart is shy, awkward and afraid of the dark.His Alter Ego Kent Downer is everything he is not. And everything he needs to be to go on stage every night and become a rock god!As soon as he is home though, the make up comes off, the clothes change and he is just “Uncle Ade” to his beautiful 10 yr old niece, Kate.Kate’s parents died a few years ago in a car accident and Adrian has guardianship of her. She is on tour with him and his best friend/manager George.The Nanny on tour with them leaves leaving them stuck.Enter broke Author Libby Myles.She meets Kent at a TV Station and helps him when the light black out.The next day she meets Adrian and Kate at her book signing. Kate is a huge fan!They end up at coffee and well things just go from there.Yes there is chemistry but no they do not just jump into bed together. Remember Adrian is socially awkward?Anyway! Everything they do is for Kate.But when someone threatens to take Kate away from Adrian things start to turn sour. Adrians past comes back to haunt him and he starts to blame and push Libby away.I won’t say much more than that about what happens but I will let you know we get a HEA. And it is pretty sweet!So all in all I liked this book. A different take on the rockstar life.
