Following Spoiler Alert, Olivia Dade returns with another utterly charming romantic comedy about a devil-may-care actor—who actually cares more than anyone knows—and the no-nonsense woman hired to keep him in line.
Alexander Woodroe has it all. Charm. Sex appeal. Wealth. Fame. A starring role as Cupid on TV’s biggest show, God of the Gates. But the showrunners have wrecked his character, he’s dogged by old demons, and his post-show future remains uncertain. When all that reckless emotion explodes into a bar fight, the tabloids and public agree: his star is falling.
Enter Lauren Clegg, the former ER therapist hired to keep him in line. Compared to her previous work, watching over handsome but impulsive Alex shouldn’t be especially difficult. But the more time they spend together, the harder it gets to keep her professional remove and her heart intact, especially when she discovers the reasons behind his recklessness…not to mention his Cupid fanfiction habit.
When another scandal lands Alex in major hot water and costs Lauren her job, she’ll have to choose between protecting him and offering him what he really wants—her. But he’s determined to keep his improbably short, impossibly stubborn, and extremely endearing minder in his life any way he can. And on a road trip up the California coast together, he intends to show her exactly what a falling star will do to catch the woman he loves: anything at all.
Review:
I have been looking forward to the sequel to Spoiler Alert since I finished the book in 2020 especially when I learned it was going to be Alex's book! And y'all! I adored everything about
this book from Alex being a human Golden Retriever to Lauren finding her
voice and learning to have Big Harpy Energy! It was amazing!
This book has so many great things in it! The ADHD rep in Alex's character was so spot on and I loved being able to see experiences similar to my own show up on the page. Lauren's PTSD from her previous job and the way she tried to make herself invisible broke my heart. And the way her cousin treated her made me so angry! It made me root for the romance between Alex and Lauren even harder so she would have someone see her for the amazing person she was!
The romance was a perfect slow burn and it was
*chef's kiss*! It had so many of my favorite romance tropes in it and I
was so sad when I ran out of pages. It was so fun seeing the crossovers
with the first book and the fanfiction world! I loved this book so much! And I totally need a Big
Harpy Energy shirt of my own! I am so sad that there will be no more books planned in this world because I want to see more of these characters!
