I was lucky enough to read an advance copy of this story, and I absolutely ADORED it The premise is so unique and compelling Elise slays slays as a narrator She has this charming authenticity and is so well drawn And the other characters are just as brilliant Can I just say Clint CLINT Told in a fresh, one of a kind voice, Flirting with Fame is brimming with personality, heart, and swoons.Five glorious stars.

Oh, my goodness SO MANY FEELS This book is just wonderful on so many levels There s a fresh, romantic love story, and so many secondary characters that are beautifully developed I had about a thousand things going on this week, but despite all that, here I am, still in my pajamas on a Friday afternoon, because I was desperate to finish this book and know how it ended FLIRTING WITH FAME is about Elise, a college freshman with a huge secret She s really Aubrey Lynch, the author of the popular Viki [...]

Oh, wow This book was total sleeper hit for me I wasn t so sure going into it It started off very slowly for me and I began losing patience I was worried that this incredibly promising premise was going to fall flat.I am SO HAPPY to report that it didn t About a third of the way in, I was completely hooked And now, having just turned the last page, my heart is completely overflowing and I am hopelessly in love with this story, these characters, and all these feelings.I loved the unique set up of [...]

Captivating Heart wrenching Phenomenal FLIRTING WITH FAME by Samantha Joyce captivated me from the start.Elise s character is absolutely likable from page one and with each sentence you fall and in love with her She s got an incredible, authentic voice, and a wonderful spirit despite her tragic past The fact that she is deaf offers readers a different perspective to look through in the genre and it draws readers into a world many of us aren t familiar with And when everything is shrouded in si [...]

A powerful story of learning to love who you when you are different from others around you and finding the strength to show the world the real you While this is a story that is achingly real and emotionally turbulent with ups and downs that most of us can relate to, it had me undeniably hooked throughout the entire book.This review was originally posted on Books In Brogan

I received a copy of this title from NetGalley It does not impact my review.What Worked My mother works with the deaf and hearing impaired, so I m always interested to read about deaf characters I liked that there were a few people in Elise s life that knew sign language and that that was incorporated into the story Since Elise was a teenager when she became deaf she has good speech and she s talented at reading lips so a lot of people don t realize she s deaf While I think that it was handled p [...]

I was in the mood for a light and fluffy romance, and this book was exactly what I was looking for This story was a coming of age story mixed with cute romance, great messages, and strong friendships Even though some of the events in this book were a bit cliche, it was still a fun book.I really liked the main character, Elise, because she was sweet and adorable However, she did some really dumb things, but at least she always owned up to it I wanted to shake her for doing those dumb things, but [...]

If you re thinking about picking up this book, be careful It s impossible to put down once you ve started.I have had the privilege of reading this book several times before publication and no matter how busy I thought I was, it s never taken me than 24 hours to finish it It s that good, and that re readable.The characters jump off the page They feel like real people from each of their first introductions, to the point that I m happy to spend time with them even when I know where the story is go [...]

Flirting With Fame is one of those books that I had no intention of reading but as soon as I read the synopsis I couldn t not read it Elise is going through a lot, she and her best friend are starting their freshman year of college in different schools, that isn t very uncommon right What is uncommon though is having to start college and also having to be on set for filming the television show based on her very own book series Once Elise finds out she is being impersonated by the person she put [...]

Really lovely new adult novel about Elise, a young deaf woman I can t speak to whether the details on her disability are perfect, but they FELT reasonable , the two men interested in her, and the other friends and frenemies she acquires Disclaimer I m acquainted with the author via social media.A bit of Hollywood stardom, book fandom, and secret identities make for a story with several twists and turns, and a wonderful happy ending, not without some tearful moments along the way.

There was so much to love about Flirting With Fame Not just the poignant story line, or the growth of the female main character, but the love story, the side characters, the moments they shared and the heartache they had From moment to moment, I found myself wholeheartedly engaged in this world that Samantha Joyce built and am than eager to read all of her words from here on out.This is the story of Elise, the shy, college girl with the heart of gold Sure she a little bit broken after losing he [...]

I m not normally a fan of contemporary or romance, but Flirting with Fame pulled me in right away Elise is such an interesting character She s strong, yet she s very vulnerable, and as a writer I liked the position she found herself in when it came to Veronica and living a double life It definitely did sound like something worthy of a book and I liked the whole book within a book bit when it came to Elise being an author herself.The other characters, especially Clint and Reggie, were a blast to [...]
