poupimali's review against another edition

emotional funny lighthearted fast-paced

4.5

I was hooked, sometimes spellbind and then I was frustrated.
The story is great, characters are developed, some sensible subjects are delicately discussed (mental health, death of loved one, dementia, abandonment). It is deep, sensible, accurate. 
The spice is great: angry smex which transforms in love making is one of my fav kind of spice.

I love Phoenix and Lennon’s story.
Even though the end is too rushed for my liking, just because I wanted more.

Tropes:

Sassy and curvy FM

Rockstar

Second chance

Enemies to lovers

Boy obsessed
FMC is seeking for revenge

The audiobook is narrated by Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton in dual narration. And it is perfect.
