Publisher's Summary

From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ashley Jade comes an edgy, enemies-to-lovers standalone romance about mistakes, forgiveness, and second chances.

He was the talented bad boy everyone wanted. I was the irrelevant geek everyone hated. 

He was the sun...drawing all of us in. I was a black hole...taking up space. He was destined to be a star. I was destined to remain an insignificant no one.

Until he made me believe I was special...and then he destroyed me.

I never thought I'd see Phoenix Walker again after he broke my heart, but fate had other plans. One tour. Eight weeks. Forty shows. Countless opportunities to make him pay.

The world thought he was a god...but I know the truth.

Ah-mazing!! 🙌

Everything about this book was freaking amazing!!
I was sucked into this story from the very beginning and absolutely devoured this book! I just finished it but I want to re-listen to it already, I loved it that much! There were moments that legit had me laughing out loud, and there were times when I had to wipe tears off my face, but I loved every single second of this book!
And the narrators were both fabulous!! 🙌
This was my first book by Ashley Jade and I’m 1000% going to go looking for other books by her and begin st@lking her socials immediately! 😉😂

Fantastic

I did not think I’d like this book as much as I did but boy was I wrong!!! Phoenix & Lennon and both a hot mess but their story is absolutely heart wrenching! The narrators brought this story to life and really made me feel more then reading this probably would have

So hot

I read this book first and loved it so much so I wanted to hear it as well. Unfortunately, this is a rare situation where the audiobook does not elevate the story. I just can’t stand the female performer. I’ve listened to her on other audiobooks and the way she performs ruins it for me. She exaggerates syllables or makes a single syllable into two syllables. It’s so annoying. I have to speed up the book to counteract these exaggerated syllables. It’s a bummer cause the story is fire.

Spoiler alert

Ending kind of confused me but I loved the book throughout!!! The end just seemed a little rushed considering how many subplots were introduced and couldn’t tell whether or not phoenix got his career back or not but other than that I loved it

Excellent performances!

Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon did an incredible job with this one! It was a re-read for me, so I already knew I enjoyed the story. Audio doesn’t always work for me but I think in this case I liked it even better on audio!
