However, when he is yet again blamed for something out of his control, he snaps. Deciding to stand on his own two feet, he chooses to follow his true passion – music. But will he find real happiness?Star Mendoza is living her dream in Edinburgh, a place she discovered in British novels while growing up in a small USA town. Now working in a city coffee shop, the tattooed, pink-haired young woman fantasises about the handsome businessman she serves on a daily basis. He’s totally out of her league but a girl can dream. Suddenly he stops calling in only to show up again in the most unlikely of places. Could her fantasy now become a reality? Or is the attraction of opposites doomed to fail?

 

Review : You will understand the importance of the fact that I feel Jekyll and Hyde about this novel when you read it.

 

It started out extremely well and then it had a long stretch where I was wondering if I would finish it.

 

I found myself skimming some pages around the middle but against my expectations, I found back to the story and it DID finally make it to a 4 Star level.

 

Surprising

 

If you can work with a slower pace during a good part of a novel and you like the plot from its blurb I feel pretty confident that you will like the book, as character development and plot are solid.
