Lucky Girl by Emme Rollins

 


From USA Today and New York Times Bestselling Author Emme Rollins
A "New Adult" Rock Star Romance
----------------------------------------------------
Who knew loving a real rock star could be so hard?

Sara is Dale Diamond's biggest fan—and one of his biggest secrets. Catapulted to fame, Dale and his band, Black Diamond, are learning to deal with the grueling realities of the music business... including frenzied groupies. Dale's agent, determined to preserve the musician's image as a sexy single man, won't let fans know he has a girlfriend.

All Dale wants is to make music and love Sara. But he's caught up in the demands of recording and touring, while Sara has graduated art school and found a job. She and her rocker boyfriend are starting down different paths. Sara knows she's the luckiest girl in the world to have Dale in her life—but luck is about to run out.

A lurking, dark past will come back to haunt them both, forcing two young lovers to face harsh realities about life and each other. When the weight of the world is on their shoulders, will Dale and Sara be able to hold it all together for the sake of their love? 
 
Turn up your collar, feather your hair, and splash on some Polo, because we're going back to the late '80's when MTV played music videos, there was no such thing as American Idol, and becoming a star meant doing nothing short of crazy for that one, big break.

Note: This book is a full 58K stand-alone novel - the sequel to the Amazon Top 100 Bestselling Dear Rockstar

                                                                      My 5* Review
 
I received a copy of Lucky Girl for the purpose of an honest review via NetGalley.

Lucky Girl is the follow-up to Dear Rockstar. It is the story of Sara, a normal artist, and Dale, a up an coming rockstar. They have been together for sometime but Dale's manager won't let him tell the world about Sara because he feels its bad for Dale's image. Things are going good for them despite that but the past has a way of haunting the present. Can their relationship survive the difficult road ahead of them?

I really liked Dear Rockstar (4* read for me) and had high hopes for Lucky Girl. And for sure Emme Rollins didn't let me down...in fact I liked it even more! Much of the inital character development had been done in Dear Rockstar but the characters grew in Lucky Girl. I really like Sara and Dale and the love in their relationship. It was fun to watch them become who they are and grow into themselves. The plot was well developed and moved smoothly. It was a bit predictable but there were definitely a couple things that caught me off guard. The writing style flowed well kept me engaged in the story. I really enjoyed the Lucky Girl and will definitely be reading more from Ms. Rollins in the future. If you like rockstar romances you should definitely check out both Dear Rockstar and Lucky Girl.

About the Author

Emme Rollins is a USA TODAY and NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR of New Adult/Mature Young Adult fiction. She's been writing since she could hold a crayon and still chews her pen caps to a mangled plastic mess. She did not, however, eat paste as a kid. 

She has two degrees, a bachelor's and a master's, one of which she's still paying for, but neither of which she uses out in the "real world," because when she isn't writing, she spends her time growing an organic garden to feed her husband and children (and far too many rabbits and deer!) where they live on twenty gorgeous forested acres in rural Michigan.

She loves tending her beehives (bees are wonderful pollinators and Hello!? Honey!) and keeping up with her daily yoga practice and going for long walks in the woods with her boxer, Rodeo, who loves chasing squirrels almost as much as Emme loves writing!

Emme loves hearing from fans, so feel free to use the contact page on her website (emmerollins.com)  to connect with her.
