Publisher's Summary
"The perfect blend of soul-crushing angst, laugh out loud wit, and heart-melting romance.” (Helena Hunting, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author)
From number one Amazon best seller L.J. Shen comes a new, star-crossed lovers romance about loss, love, and meeting The One when you are too young to know how to keep them.
Sometimes you meet people who are out of this world, so you make them a part of yours.
A one-night stand born from vengeance in a foreign land.
An explosive chemistry neither of us could deny.
We signed a contract on the back of a Boar’s Head Pub napkin that said if we ever met again, we would drop everything and be together.
Eight years and thousands of miles later, he’s here.
In New York.
And he’s America’s music obsession.
The intangible Irish poet who brings record executives to their knees.
The blizzard in my perfect, unshaken snow globe.
Last time we spoke, he was a beggar with no intention of becoming a king.
But a king he became, and now I’m his servant.
I’m not the same broken princess Malachy Doherty put back together with his callused hands.
I have a career I love.
A boyfriend I adore.
An apartment, a roommate, a life.
I changed. He changed, too.
But Mal kept the napkin.
Question is, will I keep my word?

A bit of a laugh with some tears .
A lovely book if you need a of a chuckle and some sad bits too. Love how love that so strong can withhold time. The narrators performance was fantastic too.

So much to dislike
Where to start?
- The cameos by everyone and everything (animals and inanimate objects included) was annoying.
- The two cases of rape/sexual assault (one by the ‘hero’) was ignored, because, hey, they orgasmed at the end so all is cool, right? Wrong. “No” means NO as*holes!
- The selfishness of the male lead, where he only gave any concern to his objectives and disregarded her opinions and morals, made me loathe him.
I gave up less than half way through. I hope (probably futilely) that she kicks his as* to the curb and goes with Posh Boyfriend instead, who is nowhere near as big a tool.
On the positive note, it was well written, excellently narrated and edited.

What a gem
This is a great book full off many layers and personalities. We can never really say we know anyone or that the perfect person is in fact just that. Cheers stef k

Wow wow
I usually only have one wow, but this story deserved two. O M Goodness. This was intriguing from the first word till the last, all the hidden secrets and intricacies going on. A blockbuster.
Narration was superb.

Woeful
Savannah Peachwood's Irish accent is so incredibly bad that it distracts from the story and made me want to wash my ears out. That said, it's a pretty crap story anyway. I just couldn't push through and called it quits about halfway through the book.

Should come with a warning about dodgy accents
Could only get through the first couple of chapters and had to turn it off. Irish accents were terrible and distracting. Story failed to grab me.
