Falling Down (The Rockstar Series) by Anne Mercier – Review by Deborah Joseph

Falling Down by Anne Mercier
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lucy- actress, model, can play instruments and sing… Has family in the mafia that keeps her safe. Everything is basically handed to her on a silver platter with no hard work put in.

Jesse- a rockstar who Lucy has had a crush on since 7th grade.

Lucy is a fan girl of Jesse, literally even when she is 23 she still acts like a teenager around him. She meets him in an airport and gets his autograph and then years (6) later she is a dancer in one of his music videos. Even though they had only met that once he still remembered her and her name… weird…. She has no control over her emotions and even though she is some big actress she doesn’t know how to act normally around other stars?

I get this is fiction, really I do, but this book has no plot and doesn’t seem realistic AT ALL… which makes it harder to even relate with the MC and get sucked into the book.

Crush since 7th grade. Even reasoned with her cousin when they started seeing each other how she had been fantasizing about him since she was 12.
MFC is 23 but never says how old the MMC is… is this an age gap romance?
Any girl Jesse has slept with in the past are all “sluts” and “whores”… childish much? Oh wait, it gets better… any female who is not a family member are “sluts” and “whores” *Insert eye roll here*
Somehow throws a band together and makes an album in 10 days? I get it her rockstar boyfriend called in some favors to help her… but 10 days?!?! Okay!
Plus so much more! The sex scenes aren’t that great, so if you came for the smut this is not the one for you.

This book is a quick read but I just didn’t like it at all. I was trying to find another rockstar story to love like the first one I read… and this one just isn’t it! I will not be reading any of the other books in this series.
