BLURB:

Natasha Munro is your typical twenty eight year old girl, well, your typical twenty eight year old Geordie: curvy fun and a whole load of fab-u-lous. Her life is all going to plan - good job, great friends, close family and loving boyfriend - until an unexpected event turns everything on its head. Nursing a broken heart and decked head to toe in tasselled chaps and rhinestones, Natasha and her flamboyant fairy of a gay best friend, Tink, uproot from their Northern nest, throw caution to the win and embark on a new life together in Canada- the land of Rocky mountains, Maple Syrup, oh, and an 'in-between movies' Hollywood mega-star.

Enter infamous bad-boy of the big screen, Tudor North. Bonafide hunk and actor-extraordinaire.

Tudor is big, brooding and gorgeous and is harboring a deep secret. Tudor's cold and intimidating demeanor successfully keeps everyone at bay, that is everyone but a certain Ms Munro. It soon becomes clear, what with her smart mouth and lusciously ample arse, that Natasha proves more than a match for the emotionally distant star.

-Will Natasha and Tink settle into their new life abroad?
-Will Natasha ever find her fairytale happy ending?
-Can a movie star and an ordinary girl ever really make it work?
          
Or will the secrets lurking in Tudor's past threaten her chance at happiness?

REVIEW:

****4, I'm not happy - that's it, stars****

Absolutely Hilarious! I was laughing so hard for most of the book...Adore Tink & Wilbur's (Natasha) BFF relationship!! I snorted and made a fool of myself!!

FABULOUS, ORIGINAL and Funny as hell character banter... between just about every paragraph, was catching my breath and wiping my eyes.  I adore the characters in this story...even down to the relationship with Tudor and his little sister Bee. They didn't interact much between the two - but that just goes to show that Tillie's ridiculously amazing writing touches even the smallest aspects in between characters - I didn't much to see how deep and great he loved her. Natasha takes a job teaching where Tudor's sister is secretly attending under a different name, due to certain circumstances, Natasha ends up spending a lot of time with Bee after school on and for great reason. LOVED IT.

There was so much about this book that I want to spill and tell all.. but it seems that with every thought, comes a spoiler. UGH.  I will tell you a bit more about this book...

This was a great "Pretty Woman" type HEA. No spoiler there, we ALL know Tillie only writes HEAs. I wish we would have seen MORE little details and events of Tash and Tudor's relationship outside of a few early months or private cheesy (just the right amount without cheese overload) moments to make it a bit more real for me. TILLIE IS ONE OF MY QUEENS, so I knew it would be great. Just felt like this was more.... like a little hiccup of a happiness commercial rather than a GREAT love story of a novel...I'm pretty sure that, that sour feeling is because I  WANT MORE.  I hear and have seen on her site, that this is to become a series.. it's been over two years and not a word since. Even though I love the Hades Hangmen series, I hope that Tillie can come back to these characters and give us some more. I'm not happy with one book.

I want to throw this fab book to all my booksisters and tell them..."Hey, how come you haven't hit me over the head with this one?"  If you haven't read it...please do. It's the best kind of feel good.

A FAB read and truly worth my time. XO
