Synopsis for One More Time (from Goodreads):

I would have been stupid to turn the opportunity down.
A feature film starring the hottest man in Hollywood—and me.
It wasn’t just the chance of a lifetime; it was the first time I’d landed the leading role.
But Tanner James isn’t just any actor, aka “Sex God”.
He’s the man who took my virginity then shattered my dreams.

If I can use this part to launch a new career, it will be worth it.
If I can stop myself from falling back into bed with Tanner, it will be a miracle.
And my heart?
There’s no way he’s taking that from me.
He’s always been the one who owned it.

Why I Picked it Up / My Expectations:

I’m a HUGE Laurelin Paige fan. I love everything she does and she writes some of my favourite contemporary romances.

I’ve been dying to get my hands on One More Time since Laurelin announced it in her Author Newsletter months ago. I just adored the concept. I think we all have those Hollywood couples that we love that are no longer together and I couldn’t wait to see that reunion happen!

The Plot:

There is nothing better than watching two people fall inevitably back in love with each other. These two had lots of tension and unresolved issues between them so I enjoyed watching that all come to light. I also loved the suspense of trying to figure out what exactly happened between them two years ago; though I thought it was going to be juicier.

The Characters:

As always, Paige does a great job of shaping these characters and growing them as the story progresses. They both have their flaws and I like that in my characters.

The biggest problem these two deal with is miscommunication, which can be frustrating for a reader because you know what the issues are even though the characters aren’t telling each other. But I never got overly frustrated with these two because I understood their motivations for holding back.

The Romance:

These two have explosive chemistry from the minute they reunite. What I love about Laurelin Paige’s romances is that she writes great partners. She has this great ability to create romantic leads that compliment each other; who bring out the best in each other without sacrificing their individuality in the process.

For me personally, I always like some flashbacks to the past to help me see why my leads deserve a second chance at love. But we get enough tidbits about their past that I could see why these two were never able to forget their first loves.

My Rating: 4/5

Sex Symbol 4/5 | Star Struck TBR | One More Time 4/5

This is perfect for fans of second chances romances and those who love stories set in Hollywood!

Read if You Like: great sexual chemistry, solid characters, second chance romance
Avoid if You: dislike Hollywood drama

• Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven (Starcrossed Series #1)

Laurelin Paige

With over 1 million books sold, Laurelin Paige is the NY Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestselling Author of the Fixed Trilogy. She’s a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however. When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Game of Thrones and the Walking Dead, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She’s also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn’t do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio.
