Just One Song by Stacey Lynn
2.0
Ah, please bring on on all the horrible cliches. Let's make a list of some of the ones used in Just One Song, shall we?
1. Broken heroine (possibly due to dead spouse and/or child or trauma)
2. Random meet with famous love interest (rock star, athlete, movie star, etc.)
3. Instant-love on both sides
4. A bunch of unnecessary angst (will they, won't they and so forth)
5. Sassy best friend convinces heroine to take the chance.
6. Gooey romantic for a while
7. Some kind of drama (haunted past, exs, family problems, etc.)
8. Heroine withdraws from relationship (maybe runs away)
9. Big romantic gesture
10. Happily ever after
Okay, so not all of these are committed by Just One Song, but the story follows this basic formula that all new adult/romance writers seem to be handed when they decide to start publishing. Definitely not recommended! Please give me something new.
