Title: He Will Be Mine

Amazon Description:
Nora Tucker is an admin assistant from a tiny English village.
Gary Montgomery is Hollywood’s hottest new star.
After seeing him on the silver screen, Nora believes that Gary is her soulmate, her one true love, the man she's supposed to grow old and wrinkly with. She knows it sounds nuts, she knows it’s completely crazy. But sometimes love is crazy, right?
Only... how on earth is this Plain Jane introvert supposed to get to Los Angeles, infiltrate Gary’s inner circle AND convince him that they’re meant to be? Throwing herself into this mission might be a tall order but it means Nora can stop thinking about that one awful day, two years ago, when everything in her life fell apart...
With the help of a sunny Californian weather girl, a super hot but super grumpy script writer, and a very passionate Adam Levine tribute act, Nora is about to try the impossible and let fate decide her future…
Ramble-y Teaserish Stuff
Okay, so it's been a while since I've rambled or reviewed or teased.
Quite a while.
Like, since June.
I've read .... occasionally. I've even done the star thing on Goodreads a few times .... I think.
And then I got an invitation to read Kirsty Greenwood's latest well before it's release and I jumped at it. It was perfect timing, too. I was about to go on a mini vacation to see my one-and-only for the first time since February and it was going to be the perfect read while I waited for him to arrive or be done with work stuff or on the bus back home or whatever.
I made it to Chapter Eighteen and was so wrapped up in the amazingness of it when it had barely even started. Then some amazing quality time with my 💖 put the reading on hold and then ....
well ....
life.
I was not in the mood to deal with fictional happily ever afters.
I was not in the mood to deal with much of anything.
I probably should have continued reading anyway because, as it turns out, it's pretty much the perfect roller-coaster of a book and likely would have helped with the dealing.
I laughed. I cried. I cried some more. I laughed even more. It was definitely a roller-coaster worth riding, though. Once again, Kirsty Greenwood has given the rom-com world a book worthy of far more than 5 stars.
Go figure.
I should have known, really, based on previous experience with Greenwood -- particularly Big Sexy Love, which I read at one of the most "not in the mood" times of my life.
Note to Self: If I ever find myself in one again, I'll just grab a Greenwood.
Note to You: Even if you're not in a "not in the mood" mood, grab a Greenwood. As amazing as He Will Be Mine is, I would grab Big Sexy Love first, and those who know why will understand -- quite possibly with a smirk and a nod.
As always, Friday 56 (share a blurb from the 56th page or 56% mark) is hosted at Freda's Voice & Book Beginnings (share the first few sentences) is at Rose City Reader.
