Starfish is a cute, fun, slow burn romance! ~ Slick – Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews
Synopsis:
Ambitious graduate Marin Collins accepts a four-month internship at a prestigious public relations firm to work on a tech account, but her plans are derailed when she’s assigned to go on the road with touring rock band Kings Quarters, hailed by Rolling Stone as the next big thing.
Enter Brad Osterhauser, the reluctant rock star who would rather be coding computer games than penning Grammy-nominated songs.
Traveling by bus, city to city with a group of practical joking bandmates and a greedy manager, Marin and Brad forge a friendship and forbidden romance over a shared love of Seinfeld episodes, stolen moments and Red Vines.
But when Marin’s accused of betraying her company and the band, will Brad come to her defense or believe she was disloyal to him for the sake of her career?
Told in alternating perspectives of Marin and Brad, Starfish is a contemporary romance of unexpected love, the redemptive power of music and hogging the bed.

This was a cute, fun, and sensual slow burn romance set in the rock and roll world and while that sounds like it wouldn’t work it kind of did until what I’ll call the “big blow out” that was so badly manufactured it disrupted what had been an excellent story. That being said I adored Marin and Brad (although really Brad is so not the name of a rock and roll star) and the fact that they got one another and appreciated each other’s work ethic and their somewhat nerdy ways. Overall I did enjoy this book and while I felt like the ending was rushed considering how long it took these two to finally be together, it was still a very likeable romance.
