My review copy:ARC received from NetGalley for a honest review

A-List Movie Star

Ryan Christensen just wanted to be an actor. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever imagine that fans would chase him, paparazzi would hound him, and Hollywood studios would all want a piece of him. While filming on location in Seaport, Rhode Island Ryan ducks into a pub for just a quick escape from screaming fans—but fate has other plans.

Meets Small Town Girl

At six foot two, with dirty blond hair, blue eyes, and an incredible body, Ryan has every girl in Seaport swooning—every girl but Taryn Mitchell. Nursing a recent heartbreak, this small town pub owner believes men are best kept at a distance. But when Ryan unexpectedly bursts into her pub, she can’t help but be drawn in by his humor, charm and intense magnetism.

But Gossip Sells and They’re Paying the Price

Despite her better judgment, Taryn soon finds herself swept up in a whirlwind romance with Ryan. But is their bond strong enough to survive the tabloid lies, intrusive paparazzi, and stalking fans who threaten to tear them apart?
 


This one is one of my favourite books that I have been reading so far and I just loved it. 
It is a beautiful story almost like a fairytale, or that just what it may be and it compells the reader to just wanting more.
At first it was a little slow but when I got in the book it seemed like it ended really quick since I barely let it down.

The language in the book is well understandable and you can imagine the book as a movie in your head because it is that well written.
Love Unscripted is a perfect book to read and it's understandable if the readers are falling in love with this one. How many girls hasn't dreamt about having a relationship with an actor and by reading this one it is almost like you are Taryn.

One of my favourite actions in the book is when Taryn takes Ryan to her parents cabin to go fishing and it is amazing how you can feel inside that they really care about each other.
Another one is the engagment scene since I also like Taryn thought he had meet someone else since he was very short to her.

It gets a 5+ out 5.

Top Ten Tuesday - Books that makes you think


This will be my first time doing a so called TTT and this weeks topic is Books that makes you think.
So here is the top ten list of books that makes me think about the world, life, people and etc:

1. A Child Called 'It'
This book makes me think about how awful life can be if you are born in a family that includes a mother that shouldn't have had any children by the way she had threatend Dave and his siblings.

2. How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale
The reason I took this one is because we people are very good to judge people by what they are doing for a living or for their lifestyle.
Yes, Jenna Jameson is a porn star but she had an awful background in how she got in the showbiz and after I read this one I was chocked and I acctually loved this book.

3. 3,096 Days
This one is a book that made me think about how people can do things like kidnap a little girl and lock her in but it also made me think about how strong miss Kampusch has gotten after the abduction.

4.A Little Princess
I remember I loved this movie very much but I did always asked myself how can people be so mean to other people just because they don't have a lot of money and also how you can put a child in work at that low age.
Yes, I know it was that way ages ago but even there are still poor children that get so called slaveworks just because they need the money.

5. 
When it comes to the books about Harry Potter that makes me think about how awesome and fun it would have been if life sometimes could be like in Harry Potter's world without the horrible accidents and without you know who.
Wouldn't you guys like if life sometimes could be like in this character world?

6. 
The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks is a romantic book and movie that I really admire.
This book makes me think about life when I get older since I too want to die old with the person I love and have it like the old couple have it without the alzheimer.

7. If I Stay
This one makes me think about life and chooses we have to make.

8. 
Big Brother is watching us all and so is it in this book too.

9.[5297%255B2%255D.jpg]
This is a great story that make us see how people can change and what stupid mistakes some of us can choose 'cause what is the meaning of living a life looking beautiful and not age when the person you love will change and grow old or when the people that is in your life gets old and dies?

10. How the Grinch Stole Christmas cover.png
This makes me think about how greedy we people can get sometimes.

What books can I find at your list?
