Just an Illusion--Side A

October 16, 2017
Kelly’s first Just an Illusion rock star romance features memorable characters, sizzling sex, and a page-turning narrative. Bestselling author Amelia Grayson, the child of musicians, returns to her roots when she’s tapped to tour for a year with the popular band Bastards and Dangerous (BAD) and write the ultimate insider’s tell-all book. Amelia is unimpressed by the members of BAD, especially fraternal twins Noah and Sawyer Weston, who both seem intent on charming their way into her bed and her heart. Amelia has a job to do, and she refuses to be distracted by smoldering looks, sexy kisses, or sweet gesture. But over the next few months on the road, she gets to know the band members intimately and falls for Noah, much to his brother’s dismay. When Noah’s ex-girlfriend starts stalking them, things take a darker turn. Kelly does an excellent job of setting up her premise and the emotional beats of this romantic drama. However, it does suffer from occasional dips into overwrought territory, wish fulfillment indulgences, and a life-and-death cliff-hanger.
