There’s a magnetic attraction when a happy-go-lucky gig worker agrees to a fake relationship with a rich, uptight New Yorker in this steamy romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Samantha Young. Star Shine Meadows is all about freedom, thanks to the hippie parents who raised her. Juggling her jobs as a professional costume character actor and a line sitter, she believes in no expectations, no stressful ambitions, and no-strings-attached relationships. So when she meets a birthday girl’s grumpy uncle while working a princess party, she can’t help but needle him. She’ll never see him again, and honestly, he's pretty hot. Rafe Whitman may be a veterinarian with a great bedside manner, but that doesn’t mean his patience extends to anyone with opposable thumbs. His family will not stop nagging him about finding “the one,” so when he runs into obnoxiously cheery Star again, he makes her an offer: He’ll pay her more than she would make doing her odd jobs if she’ll pretend to be his girlfriend at family gatherings. She can stop sitting in line waiting for someone else’s new phone, and he’ll get his family off his back. When the tension between them heats to a breaking point, Star’s desire for "no strings" is tested against Rafe’s staunch stability. They say opposites attract, after all.... 5 Heart Review by Ashley It's official...Samantha Young can do no wrong. Now I confess, I mostly read her romantic suspense novels but The Love Plot sounded too fun to pass on and was I ever right! I loved Star. She was truly her own person and lived life on her terms. And goodness me it was so refreshing to read someone who just wanted happiness and peace in their life. She wasn't going to let anyone stand in the way of that no matter how handsome they were. I won't lie, it took me a hot minute to warm up to Rafe. He was broody and standoffish. And beyond ready to put an end to the parade of women his mom and sister were trying to set him up with. A plan, a proposal and an eye opening he never saw coming. It didn't take long for their fake dating to turn into real feelings. But with them coming from totally different worlds, it was only a matter of time before things got twisted. Gah! I can't gush enough about these two. This was just an all round feel good romance. Star and Rafe's opposites attract love story was so honest and pure that I couldn't stop reading. They loved one another for all that they were and all that they weren't. They balanced and reality checked each other in a way that gave me all the happy belly flutters.
