When increasingly disturbing letters show up at his agency, threatening horrible things against the man he loves, Harry vows to protect Adrien at all costs.
Adrien and Harry are on the verge of revealing their true feelings to each other when danger strikes. Maybe they can share a lasting love…if Adrien’s stalker doesn’t get to him first.
REVIEW:
This story was a quick and easy read, and while I’m not saying that’s a bad thing it wasn’t entirely what I was expecting. The opening line of the blurb – They must escape danger before they can have their Hollywood ending – led me to believe this was going to be a nail-biting thriller with a whodunit feel. The story opens with the stalker story being forefront but it quickly fades to the background as Harrison and Adrien admit their feelings to each other, and romance takes first place.
I love stories told from dual point-of-view, as was the case with Star Power, because it normally helps me connect to the characters. For some reason I can’t put my finger on, I never became invested in these two men. I didn’t ‘feel’ any real emotional connection between them, even though I liked them enough.
Toward the end, the stalker makes his grand appearance for a crashing finale! Something I won’t get into for risk of spoilers.
The epilogue was hot, even though the D/s scene came a little late and it struck me as odd that Harry didn’t even discuss his new acquirement with Adrien before the event. But hey, each to their own.
Readers who enjoy friends to lovers stories, which don’t require too much brain power, will more than likely enjoy this story.
