WILD FIXATION is the second book in the Rebel Rockstars series. This time, it's lead singer Jacob's turn. He has been fixated on Seth, the bodyguard, since their tour with The Ten Hours. Of course, nothing can happen... which you immediately know means something will happen!

This is definitely a case of star-crossed lovers, at least to begin with. They both like each other, but both know they need to be professional. Sometimes though, that isn't enough. I did enjoy the push-and-pull between them both as they tried to do the right thing. The flirting disguised as teasing was fun to read.

I loved the support Jacob had from his friends/bandmates. It was nice to read a book about a band without the usual theatrics and infighting. I want to go back and read Keannen and Tim's story, but I'm also looking forward to Shawn's!!!

The one thing I didn't really understand was the whole Ryan situation. I know it was necessary for Seth and Jacob, but WHY?!?! Given his history, I wanted to know his reasons. Anyway, moving on...

This was a great book that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.

Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin General UK for the advanced copy of this book

I read Beach Read last year and I did enjoy it but it didn't blow me away, this one, however... WOW! That's all I can say. A book about travel was always going to be right up my street but a slowburn friends to lovers story about travel. I was positively OBSESSED! The relationship between these two characters was so raw and honest and you were truly rooting for them from the very beginning. I related so hard to the character of Poppy too, like way too hard, there were moments when I genuinely thought that Emily Henry had been spying on me with how accurate some of these seemingly random character traits were to my life and I loved exploring the world through her eyes. I also think Alex Nilsen may be the new literary love of my life. I'm just so so so in love with this story and I probably shouldn't be typing this at midnight but that's when you get my most honest thoughts. I just have so much love for this book and I can already see it being one of my favourites of the year!
