What do you get when a celebrity and a fan meet on a dating app?
Meet Jessy and Patrick.
All Jessy wants is to figure out what to do with her life. She hates her job, lives in a crappy London apartment and her love life is non-existent. . .That is until her twin sister begs her to join her newly launched dating app, Butterflies.
Lead singer and front man of These Exiles, Patrick just wants a break after coming off tour. But when he’s mistakenly arrested, his record label insists on doing damage control. Their latest scheme? Getting Patrick on the dating apps and into a relationship.
When Jessy and Patrick match on Butterflies, neither plan to actually meet. . . but then they literally bump into each other and chaos ensues. With their faces plastered all over the internet, and Patrick’s record label jumping on the publicity, the two find themselves unexpectedly ‘dating.’
Can they keep up the farce in front of the whole world, or will they start to believe their own lie?
I really thought I would like this one, the premise was right up my alley and the cover is so cute but unfortunately this one did not work for me.
The characters had absolutely no personality, the plot felt so random and the scenes felt so disjointed. The chapters were choppy, the dialogue was stilted, the side characters added nothing to the story and the lyrics throughout the book were annoying.
The conflict made me so angry, yet another issue that could’ve been resolved if the characters just had a rational conversation instead of jumping to insane conclusions. The comment he made about her mother made me want to throw my book across the room, I have no idea why the author felt the need to write that line??? It was so insensitive and unnecessary
Thank you to Penguin for sending me an advanced reader copy.
