Tropes: Enemies to lovers / Reverse age-gap / Forced proximity / Celebrity romance

The story follows Lexi, an Oscar winning filmmaker, who is forced by her company to follow and film the boyband, Rebel Heart, on their reunion tour. The band mates aren’t keen on having her around and make her presence very unwelcome, especially the unofficial band leader Aidan. She thinks he’s egotistical and rude and he thinks she’s highly strung and untrustworthy. Cue enemies to lovers 👏🏻. Will they still feel this way for the duration of the tour..? You’ll have to read to find out 🥰.

I had the BEST time reading this. Absolutely one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read in a while. Plenty of plot, great found family, open door spice 🌶️, a reverse age gap (he’s 25 and she’s 30) and a stunning array of locations around the world. Just the perfect mix of ingredients.

Any fans of One Direction, BTS or any other band will love the vibe of this. It reminded me so much of the book/film ‘The Idea of You’ and I kept picturing Nicholas Galitzine as the MMC! It was refreshing to have an older FMC and for the MMC to be emotionally mature despite his younger age. He is also a consent King, something we love to see 🙌🏻.

I Knew You Were Trouble is released on the 21st November 2024. Only a few weeks to go!

Thank you to Emma Rae and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this eARC.

I just finished devouring my first Emma Rae book, and let me tell you, I am absolutely buzzing with excitement! I got my hands on the ARC, and "I Knew You Were Trouble" is a title that does not disappoint. The author brought Lexi and Aiden to life in the most fantastic way possible.

This book is an absolute rollercoaster of love, friendship, trust, and just the right amount of drama and spice! Picture an Oscar-winning director falling head over heels for a younger boy band member. If you're in the mood for a sizzling, heartwarming, and unputdownable romance, this book is a total game-changer. It's like a breath of fresh air and exactly what I've been craving.

A massive shoutout to NetGalley and Canelo for the ARC - you guys rock!

I absolutely loved this book! I love everything about the entertainment industry. I enjoyed the boy band aspect as well. It was so neat to see the two worlds bond together and create the perfect love story
