Evelyn was your usual ordinary girl who had hangups about being big-boned, although it did put me off a little bit that she didn’t really know what to do with her life ( but I should think being only 21 does give her an excuse).Įven though there were a few things that stopped me from giving this a 5-star rating, I will always be a fan of the rockstar-meets-the-ordinary-girl plot. David was being the typical possessive ( if not too insecure) rockstar who moved mountain for the love his life. It had a lot of those swoon moments that I really love. He sucked in his bottom lip, trying to keep the happy contained in the face of my parents’ fury.īut in the end, I still enjoyed reading Lick. What I am is the luckiest fucking girl in the entire world.”Ī smile lit David’s eyes. Then I turned and said what I should have said a long time ago to my husband. “You’re out of control,” my father snarled, pointing his finger at me. Or maybe the preconceived notions that I had affected my opinion about the book. Perhaps I expected too much the details about that night in Vegas didn’t even seem like a complete picture to me. One minute David’s being a jerk and then he just suddenly becomes almost too nice towards Evelyn.īasically, the believability factor wasn’t there at times. I think what I’m trying to say is that personally, I feel a little bit of a disconnect with how things were portrayed specifically in terms of the explanations and how the characters reacted sometimes. Not to say that there weren’t at all because there were the usual stuff – the press, trust issues, the ex and a whole lot of family problems. Though I’m not yet sure if this is a good thing or not but I guess I’ve just been used to books about celebrities being too melodramatic. This time, I didn’t make it to the toilet. “Let me get this straight, you don’t remember anything?” It seemed like there were details that were omitted. But after finishing this book in just one sitting, I felt like there was something missing. Ordinary girl got drunk on her 21st birthday. When I first read the blurb on GoodReads, I got so excited. One thing is for certain, being married to rock and roll’s favourite son is sure to be a wild ride. Now if she could just remember how it all happened. But she sure as hell never meant to wake up on the bathroom floor with a hangover to rival the black plague, a very attractive half-naked tattooed man, and a diamond on her finger large enough to scare King Kong. Waking up in Vegas was never meant to be like this.Įvelyn Thomas’s plans for celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Las Vegas were big.
