FanGirl Squeal
Cash Myers is a "sensitive singer/songwriter" that has captured the hearts of fangirls around the world with his music. Savannah is a gossip blogger and self-proclaimed SUPERFAN. After one encounter, 8 years ago before Cash became internationally known, Savannah has been his #1 fan. When their paths cross again, their attraction to each other is undeniable and a FANGIRL'S dream weekend in New York City brings Savannah and Cash even closer.
No one believes that their feelings for each other are real, especially Cash's management. At 27 years old, Savannah's parents expect her to "step away from the computer and GET A REAL JOB" while her twin sister is over the moon that Savannah will forever be the one who disappointed her civil rights activist parents by bringing a white boy home to meet the family. With gossip sites tracking their every move and Cash's big little secret, it seems like the relationship is doomed from the start. How can they even consider being together when social stigmas and self-created drama keep forcing them apart?

It's not my quote but I live by it. *rebel*. Music and writing are my everything. Music influences everything that I do and write about. Without books and music, I could not breathe.
That's me in a nutshell.
And wine. Can't live without that either.

From 8 years prior to the present so much happened in Cash and Savannah’s lives that seemingly drew them together. I love a romance story that u folds so organically!

“The little switch in Savannah’s hips when she walked was like a siren calling only out to him.”
5 I’m still squealing stars!! This book is hot!!
Cash is known for being the sensitive, sweet singer and all the girls/fans love him. Savannah works for a gossip blog and she’s a HUGE fan of Cash. Savannah and Cash meet before he becomes a huge star, and has since been his number one fan. They end up running into each other years later in New York City, and this fangirl gets to live out her fantasies with him. And this just ignites feelings between them both, but no one seems to believe them. Savannah has huge expectations to live up to with her parents, and dating a rock star isn’t it. And once gossip sites get wind of these two, it’s all they can do to stay out of the spotlight. Not to mention Cash has a huge secret. Can these two make it together through the drama that seems to follow??
I loved this book, it was fun, hot and every fan girls fantasy! I know I always wanted to be Savannah, who doesn’t?? Live out your actual fantasy with the man you’ve obsessed over?? The book is unique and nothing like I’ve read in a long time! And I read a lot!! Great book, and I can’t wait to see where this series goes next!!

Fangirl Squeal is a music-based romance about a young woman who runs an online entertainment magazine/lowkey gossip site and the superstar musician she's been literally fangirling over for practically her entire adult life. Savannah, the lead in this story, also has personal issues-namely a twin sister who makes her feel inferior and overbearing, well-to-do, intellectual parents who only want the best for their daughter. I like Savannah because of her edgy, alternative style and personality, but I initially did not connect with her because for the first half of the book she is sniffing after Cash's dirty draws while trying to disprove to her family that she is a worthy individual capable of making her own choices. Coupled with the fact that I kept drawing comparisons between Cash and Savannah and Aiden and Sunny Tyler of the Friends and Lovers series, I was truly ready to give up on this story.
Oh, but this book takes a turn…for the absolute better!!!!
Just when I lament about how much Cash and Savannah remind me of Aiden Sunny, who appears in this story but…Aiden and Sunny! And guess who’s curled up on her sofa fangirl squealing??!! As a voracious reader and lover of romantic serials, it warms my heart tremendously when I see my favorite characters from an author’s book(s) appear in another completely different storyline.
Savannah has turned it around. I thought she was one of those self-hating BAPs (Black American Princess) who was rebelling from the lifestyle and culture in which she was raised. And while this is true to some degree (not the self-hating part, but the rebellious part), the more this story progresses, the more you will understand why she feels the way she feels and does the things that does. And I discovered something along the way: Savannah is in many ways, me!!! We’re bold, assertive, and individual in our uniqueness on the outside, but on the inside there’s still some insecurity and uncertainty. There’s that Am I good enough factor competing with that I know I’m the baddest factor. We want to please while at the same time declaring IDGAF (knowing it’s a lie.) I am telling you: Savannah will take you through it all!
Cash is beautiful and brilliant-but he’s still a man, a man who makes boneheaded moves that threaten his and Savannah’s happiness. But there's one thing for certain, and two things for sure: He loves him some Savannah! But is that enough for her with all the drama he brings and all the insecurities she feels toward the "Hollywood life"? Read the book my friends to find out. This story will get you all in the feels. I’m not saying they’ll all be good feels, but to me, any story that makes you feel something, anything, is a good story.

This one was really challenging for me to finish. If not for my typical completionist mentality, I probably would not have. I should have turned away at the title, which I think sets expectations perfectly for this book, but I gave it a chance against my better judgment.
Not based on anything other than my own assumptions, I felt like this was really the author taking an opportunity to write a fantasy, including multiple editorials which felt like they were things she feels about music and took the opportunity of writing a novel to communicate to whomever reads it. It felt... obvious and generic. The same things you hear teenage music fans communicating in a variety of different ways. And, it wasn't something I would expect from a leading "entertainment journalist" nor would I expect it to have some magical ability to resonate so profoundly with a famous musician, exactly for the same reasons: it was obvious and generic. Not to say there weren't real feelings expressed, but there wasn't anything so magical or unique in what was shared that it was reasonable (in my mind) for it to lead to the outcomes it did. And once the tone was set - essentially a fan girl's dream coming true - I just had a hard time getting through it.
There was also the fact that there were a significant number of typos and grammatical mistakes throughout the novel, which is a peeve of mine (I wish it wasn't so hard to find well-written works in this genre...). There were several times the main character's name was spelled differently (I'm still not sure if the author intended Savannah to have an "h" at the end, given the frequency that it was missing). I think the book would seriously benefit from another round of editing.
On a positive note, I think the character backstories were really interesting. Savannah's family history was a big part of her character and I thought the involvement of her various relatives throughout the work was well done.

I love a rockstar romance novel and this one doesn’t disappoint. It has drama in bucket loads and a few twists and turns that I loved but didn’t expect.
Savannah Ford is an entertainment journalist aka gossip blogger and SUPERFAN. But heaven forbid you should call her that. She has an extremely successful website called Fangirlsqueal.com and is the number one fan of Cash Myers. She has loved him and followed his career for eight years - since before he was signed and their first meeting in the JukeBox.
Cash Myers is the most sought after artist of his generation. He has worked his ass off to get where he is today – sitting pretty at number one on the billboard charts and just finishing his latest sold out US tour. He has sworn that he would never date a gossip blogger or a fan – they are just too much drama but since meeting Savannah again he cannot deny the instant and intense attraction that they both feel.
Nobody takes their budding romance seriously and with so many obstacles coming their way from Savannah’s family and Cash’s celebrity status can they both really get their happily ever after and show all the haters that they are soul mates?
This is a really lovely romance book with a sex scene or two thrown in to spice things up. The book was fast paced and I liked the alternate POV’s as I’m a sucker for wanting to know how the alpha males feel. I have never read an interracial dating book before and found that the social stigma’s that are raised here give the book more depth and oomph. I really loved how this aspect was tackled and the arguments that both black and white sides have. I felt this made the book stand out a little more for a musician romance and cannot wait to read the next RockStar Romance from Jackie.

Okay so I liked the book, I mean REALLY liked this book... however I just finished reading it and I am a little... lost. Is there going to be a part 2? Because the way that it ended was hella odd. Like I was expecting something completely different and I actually a little disappointed at the "ending".
I guess it could be considered a "HEA" but I still have so many unanswered questions and I want to know what happens after... I mean this was a pretty HUGE road block... not a "little secret" so it would have been nice to know what happened when all was said and done.
I loved the characters, I actually pictured Cash as Sam Hunt and Savannah as Meagan Tandy. It was a very interesting story.. actually I love interracial celeb stories and there aren't that many of them, so when I come across one... I read it and hope for the best and besides the suck ass odd ending... I loved everything else.
Cash was just the bomb.com and Savannah was great also.. and if I am to be honest.. I didn't know how the author was going to turn around Savannah being a "superfan" because it was kinda creepy at first but then as I got to know and understand her character...I got it.. so don't let the first 30 pages throw you... she isn't really creepy stalker fan at all.
I will recommend to some friends.

~~~~~~~~~~Tracy's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~
Cash Myers met Savannah 8 years ago and it was a day she never forgot. He went off and became a huge superstar but Savannah never forgot him, in fact she became his self proclaimed superfan and the leader of his unofficial fan club. When Savannah runs into him again and meets the man that literally saved her life and doesn't know it, sparks fly. The chemistry between them is off the charts and something keeps pulling them together. Can the get past the stigma of a bi-racial relationship, her parents not accepting him, his old ex and her bombshell or the big secret Cash is hiding from Savannah? Nobody seems to want them to work out, but will all this things strengthen them or destroy them?
Loved this book and I fell in love with Cash Myers. Wow, what a hero! He is a Mamma's boy, a knight in shining armor and a hot rock star all rolled into one man. Savannah is a strong woman who knows what she wants. This book truly was a breath of fresh air. I have read a lot of rocker books but this one was so different, but in a good way. I loved the story line, the struggle that they faced on all fronts. All the characters in this book touched you in some way. This book had me laughing, crying and smiling so big at the wonderful plot turns. I would highly recommend this book.

I liked the storyline of this book. Worldwide famous but humble rock star meets his biggest fan who could also be his biggest enemy. Takes a couple of missed opportunities for Cash and Savannah to properly meet face to face and are hugely attracted to each other. One is born into a rich,black African heritage with affluence and long held mistrust white people and the other who is self made multimillionaire with no racial prejudice. Cash and Savannah have many battles to face in order to have a relationship but with many hurdles in their path can they end up together through compromise and love, or will the opinion of others around them and around the world, the rumours, the scrutiny and the non believers keep them apart.
I liked that the storyline raised the issues and prejudices that interracial relationships face. I enjoyed that both sides of the issue are shown. There are strong, likeable folks in these pages. Some you will cheer on, some you want to beat on and some you wouldn't mind spending time with. I look forward to the next in the series. Reviewed on behalf of WTMO Reviews.

OMG this book was amazing I loved it. I could not put it down. It had everything I look for in a book, originality among the characters, love, happiness, sadness,uniqueness, and it was funny as hell . It answered and discussed a lot of things about race, interracial dating and high society African Americans. I was literally blown away. I loved it. I would love to read more into there story Savannah and Cash, or just another book by these two ladies again. They really did there research when writing this book. Great jobs ladies thank you for writing this book, because I struggle with not fitting the "black mold" I like my hair kinky, I like my chucks rather then Jordan's, I love to listen to music that speaks to you rather then a rapper dissing a woman. This book helped me see that I am who i am, my skin color does not define me, for that I am thankful for the words of your book. Please read this book readers it's am amazing book.
Happy Reading!!!!
Happy Reading!!!!

Entertaining
Looking forward to book 2. Good characterization. However, the book suffers from a lack of editing: missing words and mispelled character names were a bit frustrating. Thankfully the story was there and I was invested enough in the characters that I was able to plug along and thoroughly enjoy this novel.
