You wanna f*** a superstar?

Everyone wants a piece of Animalistic, the hottest rapper out. And Animalistic happily obliges (literally), sexing women from city to city while he's on tour.

Randi Jacobs' dreams have come true when her favorite gangsta rapper Anthony "Animalistic" Talbert dines at the restaurant where she works. Impressed by her beauty, Animalistic invites her to his after party. Randi is flying high on cloud nine until he, true to his name and lyrics, expects her to give it up easily as so many females before her have. Appalled by his crude suggestion, Randi puts him in his place. And so the story begins. Animalistic has never been turned down before. The challenge of one Ms. Randi Jacobs is too irresistible to pass up. He sets out to see what's so different about her, while Randi is still coming to grips with her past.

Rap Superstar is a very quick and easy read While the story line is extremely predictable, it is still a decent and enjoyable read. And is it me, or does the man on the cover look just like 50?

I have never known that a person could change their entire life because of someone else. In “Rap Superstar”, by Debra Clayton, this is exactly what happens. Anthony Talbert, known as the rapper Animalistic, has the dream life. He has the houses, cars, the fans, and a girl to go home with every night. For Anthony, life is pretty good and he’s doing whatever he wants that is, until he meets Randi.
Randi Jacobs, an aspiring writer and filmmaker, is trying to put her life back in order. She has a frightening past, but one that she has broken away from. Working as a waitress, Randi meets Anthony in her restaurant. Randi, being such a fan of Animalistic, is excited and nervous to meet him. Anthony, only thinking of Randi as a girl to go home with, decides to invite Randi to a party as a means to potentially having “fun” with her.
Randi however, stops Anthony in his tracks when he tries to go all the way. She lets him know that is not the way she rolls. Afterward, Anthony cannot get Randi off his mind. He tries to do everything in his power to win her heart.
This book is filled with romance, passion, hip hop, and drama. It is a good book and I advise any and everyone to read it. I could not put this book down once I began reading it.

L'unica pecca? Finito troppo presto!

Ora, il romanzo mi è piaciuto e molto anche...l'unica cosa è che è finito troppo presto XD, 238 pagine sono troppo poche (non sono 280)...questa è l'unica critica che potrei fare.
Magari su alcuni punti ci si poteva dilungare di più...non perchè le parti non siano state rese bene, ma perchè sei tu che ne vuoi sapere di più tanto sei coinvolto!

Anthony e Randi sono personalità totalmente opposte, non tanto per il loro background (Anthony viene da una famiglia unita e amorevole e dignitosa per quanto non ricca, come pure Randi)... ma per quello che vogliono dalla vita e per come l'affrontano.

Premetto che l'alchimia tra i due c'è.
Per me questo è un fattore molto importante.
Poi adoro i "cattivi ragazzi" ed Anthony potrebbe insegnare loro qualcosina o due.

Mi incuriosisce affascina il mondo che sta dietro il palco!
Ed il romanzo è uno scorcio reale di quello che accade,che non vediamo ma immaginiamo...e la realtà supera la fantasia!
Il romanzo è molto reale e vero, sia per i personaggi, sia per le situazioni, sia per le conseguenze.
Niente nuvole rosa...piuttosto nuvoloni in tempesta.
Niente lenti colorate...ma vetri oscurati.
Niente favoletta...ma solo realtà, nuda e cruda.

Mi piace il linguaggio usato dalla Clayton.
Il romanzo è molto scorrevole, tanto che arrivi alla fine e te ne meravigli.
Io ero così assorta nella lettura che quando l'ho finito me ne sono stupita.
Randi Jacobs vorrebbe diventare una scrittrice e regista ma per assecondare i desideri dell'ex-fidanzato che la voleva a casa ha rinunciato ( per il momento... ;)) alle sue aspirazini.
Lavora come cameriera in un ristorante ed è qui che incontra "Animalistic".

Anthony Talbert aka "Animalistic", non è una Superstar ma LA Superstar, che è diverso.
Vale milioni di dollari, ha a sua disposizine tutte le donne che vuole..e pure quelle che non vuole in realtà...e tutto quel che deve fare è salire sul palco, cantare ed essere il figo che è.
Niente di più facile per lui.
La nostra coppia affronterà molte insidie ma alla fine il loro amore trionferà.
Consigliato a tutte!

P.S.
Il romanzo "Forbidden Affair" è in pratica "Rap Superstar", pubblicato dall'autrice con un titolo diverso.Perché?
Problemi con la casa editrice.
Stessa cosa dicasi per "Triple Platinum" e "Fallen Star"..stesso romanzo.
Attenti quindi.

I couldn't wait to finish this book. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't great either.
