Review: I Hate Rock Stars by Mia McCoy


Blurb from Goodreads:
I follow the rules. He breaks them. Rule #1: Don’t kiss, no matter what he says about the way you eat an ice cream cone.

My dream is to get a promotion at Melody Bay Animal Shelter. So my new intern should help me get the promotion, right? Shoulder some workload? Make some killer coffee?

Wrong.

Unfortunately, my new intern is Nate Hart. Rock god extraordinaire. The local who finally returned. The local everyone loves.

Apparently, his bad boy shenanigans caught up with him—a judge appointed him to do community service at our animal shelter. Although what he did is a Big Secret.

Whatever.

You see, I know Nate. He was my first kiss in school. A forbidden kiss I try to forget.

But as much as I try to tame my feelings, the wilder they grow…

They hit code-red when my boss assigns us on a road trip to pick up a traumatized dog. Of course, the motel room only has one bed. So what if it leads to the hottest, most physically creative night of my life? So what if I’ve never felt anything like this before?

The question remains: Is it true love, or is a second chance romance like teaching an old dog new tricks?
 
This was interesting.  I generally like this genre so thought I would give it a try but I found the second-chance part of this very vague and like we were missing an entire backstory.  There just wasn't enough follow through and I didn't love the end.  Hope you have better luck! 

I Hate Rock Stars comes out next week on August 8, 2024 and you can purchase HERE.  

Nate Hart. Nate fucking Hart. I can't believe it. Never in a million years did I think there was potential to cross paths with him again. After a minute of clearer thinking, I realize it's still probably unlikely to cross paths. He's on the rich side of town now. The beachfront side. There's no reason to run into each other, and I breathe a sigh of relief.

I love this trope, sub-genre, setting: My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend

I Love This Trope, Sub-Genre, Setting is a new feature on my blog in which I discuss a trope, sub-genre or setting that I love and tell you about books that are shining examples of said trope, sub-genre or setting.  Feel free to play along and please let me know about your favorite books in this realm and whether you like this trope, sub-genre and/or setting as much as I do! Today I am spotlighting the trope of:  My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend , which I would define as any book where the heroine either has a crush on or falls for her brother's best friend or her best friend's brother. I have to confess that I love this trope in nearly all of its iterations!  I have a younger brother so I never got to crush on any of his friends but it's fun reading about that and it's equally as fun as reading about falling for your best friend's brother -- instant sisters!  I know there are a ton...
