RELEASE DAY BLITZ REVIEW: Fade to Red by Willow Aster

FTR release blitz

Synopsis


Dancing in pop superstar Beckham Woods’ entourage was the last thing Roxie wanted. Her life with little Leo was blissfully ordinary; she didn’t have time for the drama that stirring up old memories would surely cause. But when Roxie took a spot on an international tour with Woods and rock icon Ian Sterling, the lure of financial security and her passion for dance pulled her into an emotional storm that threatened to spin out of control and hurt the ones she loved most. Just as she began to adjust to her new life, it became apparent that danger was in the shadows, waiting for a chance to move... ***Fade to Red is a standalone novel featuring characters from True Love Story.***

About Willow Aster

Willow Aster loves nothing more than writing the day away--anywhere will do. Her ideal place to write would be a remote treehouse somewhere, but not just any treehouse. It would need to be more like a fabulous cottage inside and free of bugs. Oh!--and a refrigerator full of Coca-cola, Orangina, and cheese. www.willowaster.com

Lia's Review


Willow Aster's True Love Story is one of my all-time favorite romance novels. In fact, I'd even say it's in my top ten of all the books I've read, and I've read thousands. When I found out Ian and Sparrow were in Fade to Red I absolutely had to have it.

Fade to Red centers around the growing relationship between Beckham and Roxie but Ian and Sparrow make quite a few appearances and are the secondary characters. I loved catching up on their relationship, they were a wonderful addition to this book.

However, the main characters just didn't give me that angsty, tension fueled romance like I experienced in True Love Story. I wanted to LOVE them and their story. Unfortunately, I just liked them. I'm not saying it was a bad read, maybe I just went in with my expectations being too high. Roxie and Beck had a lot to live up to. There was a nice suspense element that added some depth to this book, but for the most part I kinda just wanted to skim it.

~ 3.5 Stars
