What good is fame if you're slowly, unavoidably, and undeniably losing your mind?
Alicia is an up-and-coming model and Internet sensation with an insane work ethic. What her fans don't know, however, is that her always-on personality is fueled by not only addiction, but loss and tragedy on almost every level.
The more famous she becomes, it seems, the more she loses. Her husband was first. Her best friends followed. And then her newborn daughter was ripped from her arms.
No one knows Alicia is unraveling. No one but one girl; one girl who will do everything she can to be Alicia's salvation. Even if being Alicia's salvation comes at a catastrophic cost....
For most of Alexa Nichols' stories that I have either read or listened too, I have basically enjoyed the works of hers to date and Amore is another great masterpiece on my Alexa streak of stories so far and this is really entertaining and it's on top with Girl Fight as among my favorite serious Alexa story.
Then again, all of her stories have never failed me so far and still playing catch up with the others that I have yet to read.
Amore is an interesting view of an woman, the mistakes that she makes while nearly killing her and the second chances that she receives from her true friend. It has lesbian sex scenes, a rape scene and has plenty of twists and turns that I won't dare tell.
But, I highly recommend this to others! Another home run!
I originally pre-ordered “Amore: A Love Story” back in January, with the intention of reading it and writing this review soon after. Needless to say, I’m a bit late, and I apologize for that. But I find that I’m kicking myself for not having read this sooner. This love story by Alexa Nichols is much more than it appears on the surface. It’s both complex in it’s story-telling, and rife with erotic pleasures to excite you as you read.
This book has it all. It will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions. As we follow Alicia through her poor decisions and traumatic experiences, we watch Alicia grow stronger and find her way. There is so much to love about this story, yet the twist will throw you through a loop. I wish it was longer.
Michelle Jones is amazing with her narration of this story. Alicia is so complex and Ms. Jones brings out her every struggle. Be prepared to feel all the emotions and struggles as you listen to Ms. Jones narration.
