A Wilder Name was just okay, honestly I didn't enjoy the heroine. She is an opera singer, who married a wealthy man who groomed her, she divorced him for adultery. I didn't like the stress she put on appearance I guess. Luke is a rock-star and pretty famous, he came from a normal family and spent years struggling. He is the complete opposite of Nina.

Nina is all about eating in expensive restaurants, custom-made clothes while Luke is more real, he enjoys cooking and going to small places.

Honestly, Nina had a tough time dealing with Luke's career and fans. Luke chased her though I don't know why. She was irrational, hello, the guy wrote a song for you?

It was not all bad though, how to deal with being someone famous, both partners having demanding careers, opposites attract were dealt with.

I love the fight scene where she throws soft things at him.

I kind of liked this book more so than I usually do with romances. It was interesting to see two wildly different characters who have a chemistry try and have the relationship work.
