Headliners (London Celebrities, #5) by Lucy Parker

April 14, 2020 by narfna 7 Comments

This wasn’t my favorite of Lucy Parker’s books, but I still liked it. I don’t think I could ever not like one of her books. Maybe it’s just my headspace right now, but I never connected with either Sabrina or Nick, and what was happening to them felt very far away from me emotionally. I also felt the book relied too much on the events of the previous book, and if I hadn’t read that one, it would have not had as much of an […]

She might have […]

Headliners by Lucy Parker

December 5, 2019 by Emmalita 5 Comments

Lucy Parker’s London Celebrity series has been one of my favorite romance series of the past few years. In general, they have been loosely connected, with characters from previous books showing up in later books. However, until Headliners, they have been stand alone books. In order to understand an important division between the MCs in Headliners you will need to have read The Austen Playbook. I will do my best to avoid spoilers, but you can assume that Freddy and Griff have ended up happily together. Near […]
