Starfish by Lisa Becker

Starfish: A Rockstar Romance

Ambitious graduate Marin Collins accepts a four-month internship at a prestigious public relations firm to work on a tech account, but her plans are derailed when she’s assigned to go on the road with touring rock band Kings Quarters, hailed by Rolling Stone as the next big thing. 

Enter Brad Osterhauser, the reluctant rock star who would rather be coding computer games than penning Grammy-nominated songs. 

Traveling by bus, city to city with a group of practical joking bandmates and a greedy manager, Marin and Brad forge a friendship and forbidden romance over a shared love of Seinfeld episodes, stolen moments and Red Vines. 

But when Marin’s accused of betraying her company and the band, will Brad come to her defense or believe she was disloyal to him for the sake of her career? 

Told in alternating perspectives of Marin and Brad, Starfish is a contemporary romance of unexpected love, the redemptive power of music and hogging the bed

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Such a fun romance story to read. Marin Collins is ready to head to Seattle for a four-month internship with a prestigious public relations firm, but her plans are derailed when she is assigned to go on the road with a rock band instead. Freaked out by the sudden change and worried that she won't be able to prove herself and land a job when the internship is over, she packs her bags anyway and hops on the bus. But she isn't prepared for the songwriter, guitarist, nerdy, rock star that is part of the band. Brad may love being in a band with his brother, but his real love is coding computer games. But after meeting Marin, he thinks that this tour will be a bit better than the previous ones. Marin and Brad are for real adorable. In this story we get the boy meets girl, become best friends, but with the fear of the girl mixing work life and personal life, boy needs to step up his game and prove that the chemistry between them can lead to something great and taking the risk to be together despite woking together will be worth it in the end. Hilarious banter between the two and a cast of even more hilarious characters with them, this story will have you laughing, swooning, and cheering for Marin and Brad to get their happy ending. Definitely a fun story and I wish there were more!
