Fiction. Romance. Humor (Fiction.) HTML:Author of Act Like It and Pretty Face Lucy Parker returns readers to the West End, where it's fireworks onstage and off in this sexy enemies-to-lovers showdown.
"Funny, sexy, poignant, warm, intelligentâ?? it's the perfect summer read."â??All About Romance
Once upon a time, circus artist Trix Lane was the best around. Her spark vanished with her confidence, though, and reclaiming either has proved...difficult. So when the star of The Festival of Masks is nixed and Trix is unexpectedly thrust into the spotlight, it's exactly the push she needs. But the joy over her sudden elevation in status is cut short by a new hire on the makeup team.
Leo Magasiva: disgraced wizard of special effects. He of the beautiful voice and impressive beard. Complete dickhead andâ??in an unexpected twistâ??an enragingly good kisser.
To Leo, something about Trix is...different. Lovely. Beautiful, even though the pint-size, pink-haired former bane of his existence still spends most of her waking hours working to annoy him. They've barely been able to spend two minutes together for years, and now he can't get enough of her. On stage. At home. In his bed.
When it comes to commitment, Trix has been there, done that, never wants to do it again. Leo's this close to the job of a lifetime, which would take him away from Londonâ??and from Trix. Their past is a constant barrier between them.
It seems hopeless.
Utterly impossible.
And yet...

I have been enjoying the series but I found this one hard to plow through. It only picks up halfway, once the H/h finally get their shit on the table and actually communicate. I was so close to DNF but happy I stuck with it. Just wish it was better. ( )

Sleepless night from the jetlag, so I went for the new Lucy Parker. And it didn't disappoint. My go-to writer for romance for sure. And I'm picky. I can be entertained by romance, but I rarely love it this much. But when I do, it's so worth it. I'm not even usually into celebrity romance, but these books see the people behind the fame, the real people, and that's what makes them great. Can't wait for more books either in this series or another series! ( )

I remember SO much about the first in this series.

But somehow Lucy Parker’s second and third offering leave me with a wandering mind, and I either miss her transitions or they are non existent because I constantly feel off balance.

I did feel the chemistry here, but there’s something lacking in the set up. I’m sending this back to he library for a more deserving reader, and heavily considering passing on the 4th ( )

A really good mix of romance, grown up love and geek. Trix is wonderful, self aware and full of life. Leo is almost too good then I caught myself, nice, hot and good guy are just so rare that when you get one, you can't help waiting for the other shoe to drop, the shoe never drops. Leo and Trix are two adults going after what they want with both eyes opened. The theater scene, the fandom space, urban London are perfect for Trix and Leo to find solace, love and peace with themselves and each other. ( )

When one of the most talented aerial performers in the West End suddenly slammed into the side of a fire-breathing dragon, crushing his metallic wind and snapping her own forearm like a match stick, quite a few people cheered.
