This is a typical 50 Shades-like book, it wasn't very emotionally engaging though. This is probably because "I love you"s were issued within three fucking days. We're just being introduced to the characters and already they're head over heels talking about forevers. Fucking ridiculous!!!
In addition this book was jam backed with grammatical errors and typos. There were too many "to" instead of "so" to count, misplaced or missing quotation openers, all manor of errors. Are there no more editors worth their pay any longer? Don't any of these authors have readers before publishing?!
The characters were all ok, as was the story, everything (aside from the technical) was just ok. Nothing really wrong, nothing really wonderful. Some of the show more dialog was good! Some of the scenes were very good, but as a whole, this book was just mediocre with added disappointment of terrible typos.
I'll be reading the next installment as I am still interested, but if it doesn't pick up (and slow down!) by then I'm 'out of here'. show less

This is a well written love story. If you love the theater and the excitement of young talent on the rise, this book more than fulfills that promise. This is not a standlalone ... there must be a sequel! There is love, mystery, angst, great sex scenes ... everything to take you away in a gripping story. A must read. To JS Taylor: please get going on the sequel. I cannot wait to see what happens!

I enjoyed the characters & the eroticism of this book, but there where a few problems that interfered with the flow of the story.
I am intrigued enough to go for book 2 in the series.

Loved this book. Can't wait to read the next one. Similar to 50 shades in many ways but well written and kept me turning the pages!
