What a refreshing take on a rock star romance!
Too Good at Goodbyes was a heartachingly beautiful book! The story showcases the classic “Hollywood star/bodyguard romance” and gives it an incredibly unique overlay of emotionally damaged characters and heartbreaking plot twists. The story dives deep into the heart of what it truly means to KNOW someone, to break through the walls someone has built around them and discover who they really are deep inside.
Simone and Kane are quite similar characters. Both have been hurt by the people they loved, causing them to shield themselves as well as their hearts from enduring love’s painful sting again. But in doing so, they’ve each adopted iced facades, changing their outlook on life and connection to true happiness. I feel that’s why they have such a strong pull towards one another. Yes, there’s that immediate attraction and chemistry between them, along with their undeniably intense passion. But it’s the emotional pain and insecurities they feel and share with each other that really binds them together.
Too Good at Goodbyes delivers on so many levels. Heartache, drama, humor, and desire blend together to make this slow burn romance an instant must-read. I love stories with emotionally scarred characters. The Good Samaritan is one of my absolute favorites books, so to read another fantastically penned story by the author with perfectly flawed characters was an absolute treat! I truly loved it!
Fact or fiction: You won’t be able to put down this down.
Fact.
5 Stars!

Synopsis:
First Top 40 hit at age seventeen? My first tabloid breakup scandal quickly followed.
Earned my first Grammy? Discovered Mommy Dearest was embezzling my money.
Landed a leading role in a movie? My fiancé called off our engagement the next day.
I might have a multi-million-dollar recording contract, a sold-out world tour, and more money in the bank than I ever imagined, but every time I hit a milestone in my career, my personal life suffers.
Then in steps my new bodyguard, rugged and with a past I connect with. The closer we get, the more powerful my feelings grow, complicating our professional relationship.
I thought Kane would be different. I hoped he’d be the one man to stand by my side, undaunted by the fame and attention that trails me.
The press calls me the “Ice Princess of Pop” because of my unyielding façade throughout heartbreak and betrayal. Perhaps it’s time to show them the real me.
With every syllable, I pour out my emotions and allow them to puddle, forming lyrics from my soul’s breath. And with each word, my broken heart cries out for Kane, begging him to help me break this pattern.
To help me stop being so damn good at goodbyes.
