Midnight Blue

Author: LJ Shen

Release Date: January 18th

 

It should have been easy.
I needed the money. He needed a babysitter to keep him from snorting himself to death.
I was cherry-picked especially for him. Responsible. Optimistic. Warm. Innocent.
The worst part is that I should have known better.
Alex Winslow. British rock star. Serial heartbreaker. Casanova with whiskey eyes.
“Don’t get near the devil in a leather jacket. He’ll chew you up and spit you out.”
Sounds familiar? That’s because it was a headline in a tabloid the second time he got arrested.
Guess what? I didn’t listen.
I signed the contract.
World tour. Three months. Four Continents. One hundred shows.
My name is Indigo Bellamy, and I sold my soul to a tattooed god.
Problem was, my soul wasn’t enough for Alex Winslow. He ended up taking my body, too.
Then he took my heart.
Then he took my all.

Before she’d settled down, L.J. (who thinks referring to herself in the third person is really silly, by the way) traveled the world, and collected friends from all across the globe. Friends who’d be happy to report that she is a rubbish companion, always forgets peoples’ birthdays and never sends Christmas cards. She enjoys the simple things in life, like spending time with her family and friends, reading, HBO, Netflix and internet-stalking Stephen James. She reads between three to five books a week and firmly believes Crocs shoes and mullets should be outlawed.

Five Stars

Wow!! L.J. Shen is the queen of making asshole heroes lovable. I read this book in one day because I absolutely could not put it down.

Alex and Indie's relationship is a push and pull from the beginning. However, Alex is oblivious to any shifts in his feelings towards Indie. He is a compulsive liar. He has lied so many times to his everyone including himself that he doesn't know what is fact or fiction anymore. 

Indie has so much depth to her character. She knows when to stand up for herself and when to let Alex have his space to think for himself. She has so much drive to help her family get out of debt that she is willing to put up with his broodiness and asshole ways, but found her attraction growing daily. 


"You look at me with dynamite in your eyes, waiting for me to light up the match and finally set you on fire."


Alex has so many demons to overcome. He doesn't realize that anyone could love him for him and not the persona he lets everyone else see. He starts to open up to Indie without realizing he is doing it. He justifies it as getting information out of her for his songs. 


"I like to live on the edge." He licked his lower lip.
"I like to live safely within the line," I retorted.
"It's a comfortable place to be, but nothing ever grows there."


As I read this story, my love for these characters had grown tremendously. You will be rooting for them so hard. However, one the surprises start coming, they come in full force. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, Shen would throw me for another loop.

I absolutely loved this book and getting to watch Indie and Alex grow together and as individuals. I also enjoyed the texting aspect that took place between Jenna, Indie, and Hudson. I thought it broke up the story nicely and added humor to some of the more serious scenes.
