Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
Levi and Stella’s story was fantastic, from start to finish. He’s a grown-up foster kid after a career-changing scoop. She’s a socialite making a family of her own choosing. When they meet at a Bright Young Things party, sparks fly and the attraction is immediate. But Levi is an outsider when it comes to the exclusive party clique and Stella is one of the core insiders, making this the ultimate opposites-attract romance.
What I really loved about Levi and Stella is that aside from their differences in social class, they just clicked so well. Everyone has the same feelings and hurts on the inside. Initially, Levi lies about the fact that he is a reporter, so Stella is understandably wary that he is trying to uncover the identity of Cecelia, the hostess of the BYT parties. And she is desperate to keep Cecelia’s identity a secret for many reasons. And when the fallout happens between them over who Cecelia really is, they both make grand gestures to make it up to the other person. But I really loved that Stella chases after Levi to make things right.
There is a fantastic circle of friends among the Bright Young Things, whom I figure will be the other characters/couples in this series. I can’t wait to see how the rest of this unfolds. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
