ARC Book Review - Shooting Star by Michelle Mankin

 





Book Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐


Peace Jinkins is very introverted and very shy. She first meets Bo when she is 13. She is nothing like her father, who is in the band Tempest. Bo's father is also in the same band. Peace loves to read and write in her journals. Her twin, Harmony loves the spotlight. Peace always feels that she's an outsider in her family as she's not like her movie star mom, or her rock star dad. They don't understand her, they judge her for reading so much and retreating into her books into her world. Peace is very fragile. She needs reassuring that you like her, that she's doing good. She has been bullied every year every day in school but Harmony never picks up on that? Even in college she gets bullied by a boy who thinks she's just easy prey. She won't do anything to stick up for herself. 

Robert ‘Bo’ Jackson is 14 yrs old, he's been in and out of several schools already. Now his rock star dad wants him out and is sending him to a military school for troubled youth down in Texas. His dad puts so much pressure on him to be 'good' and get good grades. Yet Bo has dyslexia and needs help, but no one is willing to help him. Down at the new school in Texas Bo gets in with a few new boys, Carson 'Car' and a few others a start playing music together, the one good thing that happened to Bo after he left his family. 

Peace lands and internship with Black Cat label. Now she is being assigned to work as an intern and travel with the band to keep Bo in line, and keep the other band members in line on the tour. This puts Peace and Bo in close proximity with each other. Faith doesn't think Bo likes her like she likes him. She's in her head too much and doesn't communicate with Bo her feelings. 

Bo is very territorial of Peace. Other men can't ever shake her hand with him giving them a dirty look or growling at them. He think his band mates are trying to take advantage of her right in front of him. 

I did receive a free ARC Book. I am freely leaving an honest review.

ARC Book Review - Play the Game (Blue Devils Hockey #1), by S.J. Sylvis

Image
  Book Rating:  Emory Olson is a hockey goalie for the Blue Devil's, a professional hockey team in Chicago. Emory hasn't had the best light in the public's eye. He is just seen as a womanizer - from the press always taking pictures of him with different women, even if nothing happened with them. He is new to the Blue Devil's hockey team, he was traded from another team hoping his attitude would change on the ice.  Scottie has always had a bad hand dealt to her in life. She loved her father, and he didn't live long. Scottie and him were two pea's in a pod. He would always take her to the Blue Devil games, they were great at watching hockey, that was what they did together. Her mother has a lot of demons that include drugs and alcohol and she is currently homeless, living on the mean streets of Chicago. Scottie always knows where to find her though, she finds her and gives her food and clothing.  Scottie is working as a stripper at a local club, the Cat House...
