Falling Star (Earth Scents #1)
by
Olivia Brynn (Goodreads Author)
Adam Nash is a superstar. House, cars, money, women … he’s got it all. Yeah, he’s conceited, but with his looks and talent why shouldn’t he be? Not until he’s banned from another hotel for his drunken antics does he realize that it’s time to grow up and treat his music as a career and not a free ride. Now Adam has set his sights on florist Jade Graham. She’s not the kind o...more

Short read with a decent story. This story probably would have been a 3½★ read for me if Adam didn't suddenly start acting like a Dom during sex at 75% into the story. I understand that BDSM is the new "it" thing in fiction but it was totally unwarranted in this story. Other than that, I liked Adam and Olivia as characters. They were rather sweet and endearing.
Adam Nash has the whole world at his feet, but because of his reputation as a party hard country and western rock star, the tabloids have a field day with him. Some days he wishes he could just be Adam Herlihey and walk around without the fear of being attacked by fans or the paparazzi. It’s bad enough he forgets important dates, and because of that, he now has to rush and buy birthday flowers for his much beloved assistant, who keeps him in line. He finds a quaint little flower shop and expects...more
A sweet short novel about a huge country music star (Adam Nash) falling for an ordinary girl (Jade Graham). A lot of the fun in the early part, was in Adam’s increasingly complicated measures to ensure that Jade doesn’t find out his identity. In reality, he’s a massively famous musician with a well publicised history or women, drinks and drugs, but to Jade he’s just a hot guy that wandered into her florist business one day.

With the number of bad books you have to weed your way through to find the gems, I'm thankful for the crappy books that lead me to books like this one. What I like most of all, I finding these rare gems in all that mess that is being "published" as "books" these days. The voice of Olivia Brynn is such a gem. This being the second book I've read of hers, I'm firmly placed in her fanbase and I'll be looking up her books again. With two out of two books sliding straight into my favorite shelf, I'm...more

Falling Star by Olivia Brynn
This was a good romantic story with some hot and steamy scenes but not in my opinion erotica. It was well written and the story moved well through all 10 chapters.
Haven’t we all wondered at one time or another, what we would do if we ran across a rich and famous star in our daily lives. How would we react? Squeal and jump up and down? Ask for an autograph? A date? To father your first born? None of the above?
Jade is the owner of a flower shop and a down to earth girl....more

This book was good. Had all the ingredients of a "feel good read". Bad Boy rocker slips into a flower shop to buy flowers for a birthday he forgot and meets sweet flower shop owner. Immediate attraction...tries to pull off the "don't let on that I'm a rock star millionaire." This works for a while. Plenty of ups and downs. Finally he has to come clean and let her know who he is. But by this time her heart is too invested, but her brain doesn't know this yet. When she finally decides to give this...more
Good story and engaging characters, with some interesting issues to get a handle on. Love that music star concept and there was a really hot scene in a hallway that was well worth a look. I do like a bit of steam in my romance.
I really thought hard about if I should give this one a three or a four stars.
I liked the book but didn't love it. It was a good book and kept me reading to the end but there wasn't quite enought struggle for the hero. He changed and had turned over a new leaf even before...more

This was a pretty good read! Super hot with great characters! I loved the banter between Jade and her gay bestie Dean! Hilarious! :) Adam was a super hot bad boy rock star who realized he needed to grow the eff up and change his ways. Luckily for him he met a super sweet, smart woman (Jade) who didn't even know who he was! Not sure the likelihood of anybody loving an artists music but not recognizing them in person, but this is fiction so.... It was a good story nonetheless and the supporting ch...more

Well what the heck?? I'm reading, enjoying the story and then suddenly I'm on the About the Author page. Where did the end go?? Is there more coming, or is that really it? Really disappointing when the story was good. There were a few flaws to the book that you had to ask where the heck did that come from, but overall a decent read, but because of that ending, there is no way to rate it higher than 3 stars.
I have read so many good "rock star" romances this summer, and this ranks way up there on my good list. I read it in one day, and didn't want to put it down. It was sweet, nothing too angsty, but it was meaty enough and sigh-worthy enough to make me REALLY enjoy it. Similar to Blindsided (with the band) which I also loved.
Quick, sweet read about famous country singer who runs into the only woman on earth who doesn't recognize him. I loved that she is a florist who is as impressed by his yard as by his mansion. It made me smile. Light romance. Plus I learned the Four types of country songs: Lovin' Livin' Leavin' and Cryin'
It's not a rockstar bad boy book..it's a country music superstar...this is got to be one of the worse stories ive ever read..it dragged on and didn't pull me in at all...I was very disappointed in that ...I read it from cover to cover to give it that chance and it failed..I don't recommend for nothing...worst book I've ever bought...sorry..
Fun and short read.
I think the story pacing was fast but it did not let out any details. I just wished that I could have seen their wedding.
I love the H/H chemistry.
Short but sweet story. It's funny that I just stumbled on this book and rather enjoyed it well.

aaaawwww super sweet short story, funny, sexy.
The characters are very nice, likable and funny, the plot is kinda silly and cliché but enjoyable.
I just love a good story with a happily ever after.

I read this in half a day and loved it....sad to see it end. I wish it would have stretched out more because the book kept getting better and better...I hope there is a follow up to it
It is an almost 4star but I usually give 4 to sth that I really really like and this one was a I really like book.It is well worth your reading time.
This was a light, fluffy, hot and sexy read. Yes, this story was predictable but it's a great book to read after a dark or sad novel. Loved it!
Great book! Fast read and just swoon worthy! Loved Adam and Jade and how they interacted!!
I'll bump this to 1.5 because I didn't hate it, but it wasn't quite OK.
Sweet short story, some steamy scenes, famous singer - ordinary girl
Very fluffy and quick read since it is a short story
Erotic contemporary romance about a Regular girl and a rockstar.
It was ok not enough angst for me. I guess it just ended too soon.
I really enjoyed this one, but much much too short!
Sweet love story. Great drama. Good read.
This was a good read...likable characters and plot!
Please, ignore this trashy cover and read the book. It's actally sweet story.
Nice escape, good read.
