A simply sweet romance. As a first read of Mary Ann Marlowe I can say this wont be my last. Josie the photographer and Micah the rock star are somewhat from different worlds but yet fit together seamlessly. I love this unique twist of a rock star romance. Josie and Micah are amazing together. Sweet and effortless. I will be going back for more by Mary Ann Marlowe.
A Crazy Kind of Love is a fun, light read. You always hear stories in the news about how horrible paparazzi are, and it was really interesting to read about them from the other point of view. There were certainly a few holes in the story. I never really understood why Josie took a job as a tabloid photographer-I understand that she was trying to break into the photography business but she seemed better suited for a job as a family photographer in the mall. I also thought Micah was a bit too perfect as a leading man. However, I still really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read more by this author!
I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
I requested this out of curiousity--"Accidental It Girl" by Libby Street is one of my favorites, with a plot that starts from a very similar point. They diverge quickly, with this book set to be a romance almost immediately, so ultimately I didn't find them that similar at all. It feels odd to say that this book has a more 'modern' feel to it given that only 10 years separate them, but it's true--the half-Indian heroine of this book has Type 1 diabetes and works with her gay-best-friend for a tabloid specifically because she needs the health insurance. I ultimately greatly enjoyed the book. I didn't notice at the time of requesting if it was listed as late YA/New Adult, but I would classify it as such.
