Landing a writing gig in Hollywood was just as difficult as becoming an actor, and something Claire Becker had learned the hard way.
Sure, she didn’t have to conform to ridiculous beauty standards and give up her love for raw cookie dough, but the sting of rejection burned all the same. The only things that kept her sane were her two amazing roommates and her guilty pleasure—writing fan-fiction.
Getting lost in her own world, she’d forget that she had yet to land her dream job, and instead spent time with her dream man—Nick Larsson. Well, at least in the literary sense. Too bad he wasn’t aware or an active participant—her fictional love life, outstanding.
Tall, good-looking and sexy beyond comprehension, Nick Larsson not only had a famous last name—and four equally smoldering brothers—but was talented beyond belief. A star on the rise with a critically acclaimed series, his body and face were what fantasy scripts—and dreams—were made of. Made for some pretty steamy writing opportunities too.
And yes, it was probably “wrong” for Claire to objectify him, but it wasn’t like anyone knew about it. Just her, and her two amazing, supportive roommates.
Or at least they were amazing and supportive, and bound to be missed after Claire killed them.
In a moment of unexplained insanity, one of them —or both, each as bad as the other—sent her latest installments to the man himself.
Cue panic of epic proportions.
All Claire needed to do was sneak into his apartment and retrieve the misappropriated story before Nick, or anyone else, read it and mistook her for a creepy stalker. Although, breaking and entering probably wouldn’t convince anyone to the contrary either.
Claire was going to get the best material of her life, or end up with a restraining order. Either way, the story was getting a hell of lot more interesting.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
I couldn’t put #1 Muse down! It had some serious #1 Crush vibes, it took me way back to beginning of the series, with it’s quirky love you from afar comedy.
Nick and Claire’s story is epic, what starts as an easy breaking and entering job to get back her manuscript turns complicated. I can’t explain to you how much I loved this #1 Muse, both characters had their quirks, but the intensity and judgement free love and passion they had for each was a breath of fresh air.
Prior to reading #1 Muse I was in a major book slump, but not with this one no way. I was reading every single free moment I had. I was trying to hide my snickering at work and laughed so hard to myself that I had tears in my eyes.
Claire’s best friends, along with Nick’s family and friend’s we have already met really make this story shine, they make this story possible. If it wasn’t for them Nick and Claire never stood a chance.
If need a laugh, some crazy antics and a swoony hero #1 Muse is phenomenal and at the top of my go to romantic comedy list!
