This one started off ok, but then quickly turned into a cheesy and predictable storyline. I struggled to finish it because a lot of it seemed repetitive.

Coco Barrington was born into a Hollywood lifestyle. Her mother was a bestselling romance novelist and her father who died from a stroke four years ago was a literary dramatic agent. And Coco's sister, Jane is a really successful film producer. Coco's had been a disappointment to her mother ever since she dropped out of law school. Coco spends her days as a dog walker until her sister offers her to house sit in her lavish San Francisco house. At first Coco doesn't want to go, but eventually she agrees to do it.
Coco was prepared for a Jane's unexpected houseguest, Leslie Baxter. He was attempting to get away from his psycho ex-girlfriend. Coco found Leslie to be an attractive and easy to get along with type of person. But in time could she begin to have feelings for Leslie?
It's been a while since I've read Danielle Steel and I must say I didn't love this book, but I did like it. A light and easy read which I'm sure will be enjoyed by most Danielle Steel fans.

This was something that I got from my MIL's house for something to read. Yes, I know... But it was a romance and it was fun to just read a no brainer. And boy, this was definitely a no-brainer! You know, the writing was just horrible. But the story was sweet. I do not recommend it to anyone, though...

I think this may be a case of an author no longer being edited. I have read 'vintage' Danielle Steel that was syrupy of course but it had actual plot, real descriptions, information!
This felt like she gave the idea to a ghost writer: "ok famous guy, dog-walker girl, her lesbian sister bullies her...go!" So the writer just reused the same sentiments to fill out almost 400 pages.

Overall, this book was good. Very cheesey & I feel like the main character will not be happy with her choice.
Basically, you have the main character coco who grew up a lavish lifestyle due to her parents both being well known. She decided she did not like that life and moved away to the beach and lived a quiet life. When she housesits for her sister, she ends up falling in love with the biggest movie star. She is wondering how life will be with him and gets a taste of it when the paparazzi attacks them to the point where she is in the hospital. Not the simple life she wanted. However, she did choose him in the end and married him.
