Overexposed
by Noelle Adams
Publication Date: May 30, 2014
Synopsis:
For five years, Leah has been known as the fame whore who screwed Kevin Grayson, son of Hollywood royalty, as a step up the ladder to stardom and then maliciously exposed footage of their most intimate moments to the world. Only Leah knows Kevin is the guilty one, using the public sympathy to advance his career and breaking her heart in the process.
Leah isn’t naïve anymore. She’s given up on romance, and she’ll do whatever necessary to prove she hasn’t been defeated. So when she needs another shot of notoriety to ensure the success of her new restaurant, at the same time Kevin needs some PR help of his own, she agrees to a crazy plan.
She can fake a two-week romantic vacation with Kevin, pretending to rekindle their relationship for the eyes of the world. And she can resist Kevin’s breathtaking sexiness, even in such close quarters. And she absolutely won’t fall for any of his lies.
Even when they start to sound like the truth...
MrsNorthman's Review:
4/5 Fangs
I enjoyed this book. It was a quick and easy read that left me
smiling.
Leah is the owner of The Retreat, a coffee shop/wine bar, that's known for its celebrity clientele. Four and a half years ago, Leah was thrown into the spotlight when a few sex tapes of her and her celebrity boyfriend, Kevin, were leaked to the media. Kevin was known for his role on a teen show and his famous father, but he wanted to make a name for himself and take on more serious roles.
The tapes catapulted his career, but simultaneously tanked Leah's reputation, forcing her to give up her dream of being an actor. Kevin and Leah were in love, but haven't spoken a word since. They each believe the other is responsible for hiding the camera and leaking the tapes.
They find themselves in an interesting position now. Kevin needs more exposure for his new movie and Leah needs to build up the hype for her restaurant opening. Their business managers and PR people think it would be beneficial for both parties if they take what appears to be a romantic trip.....together. They end up alone in a private villa for two weeks. A lot can change in two weeks!
So who leaked the sex tapes? Well, you have to read to find out. I think that part of the book could have been developed a little bit more, but overall it was a cute love story.
