This is a great story! From the very beginning I felt like I was the main character, Nick. I loved how the sex scenes were steamy but still had enough detail and storyline to them to make it all so vivid.

This book makes you feel like you are the pop star Nick Halligan and that people are clambering for your attention. From the dance studio to his mansion, you feel like you are Nick and that you are there. There is enough detail to let you imagine yourself in the backyard of the musical superstar, while not being so detailed as to weigh down the story. When Nick sees Brianne for the first time, it's immediately clear that he's enamored with her and that he must get to know her better. The author makes it easy to put yourself in Nick's shoes and feel everything that he is experiencing. Even the supporting characters have enough detail to put faces on them without slowing down the story. This book quickly and efficiently whisks you away to a romantic rendezvous and life as pop star.Product details

Star Power Taming the Untamable edition by Elizabeth Cramer Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
In another life (or on a more serious reviewing platform) I am an Top 500 reviewer who recently decided I wanted the freedom to post reviews that I know aren’t going to get any attention, or, are going to get negative attention. The self-published world is terrible for this, for instance, but I still watch voting patterns on my reviews carefully, and I often take downvotes to mean that I didn't give the author a fair shot, and I need to dig into their work better. If I judged them unfairly, I need to make some adjustments to my reviews.
However, in this case, I feel I absolutely didn't. And because this review is incredibly long, I'm going to cut all the rest of my introduction and just jump straight into the review
***THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MILD SPOILERS***
I pretty much knew I’d be less than impressed with this book by the first paragraph, when it started off with this sentence “...but his stylist had just cut his hair last night, and she had a funny thing about not wearing hats for twenty-four hours after she’d worked on him…” I’d like to point out here, that the sentence was actually supposed to read “she had a funny thing about HIM not wearing hats…” because, what benefit would possibly come from the stylist not wearing a hat, as the sentence in its current form implies?
And from there, the book just goes downhill. Nick immediately gives a description of himself by looking at a photograph...something I deem to be incredibly akin to looking in a mirror (which is a huge no/no in most author’s books), and then he continues on in a gloriously unappealing fashion. He’s distinctly unlikable. I love heroes who are hot on the outside, but still have some redeeming quality on the inside. You know, funny, or nice despite the tough exterior, or tormented but trying to hide it. I mean, ANYTHING, really. But Nick actually is just vain and shallow.
By all the giggling girls point (which was the same point at which Nick described his OWN gaze as powerful...nothing at all wrong there) I was about done. Nonetheless, I persisted, and here’s what I can say about the rest of the book The author has a maddening propensity for writing in perfect past tense ALL of the time, and it gets old. There is extreme focus on the why’s and how’s of every bit of movement through the story...details I don’t care about or want...such as the two times it was reiterated to me that by the end of the day, there would be five boy dancers and five girl dancers. It was brought up in narrative once, and dialogue once, but both pieces of information were irrelevant to me and to the story.
Moving on, I managed to struggle my way to Nick taking off his designer clothes, admiring his perfection, and striking poses in the mirror, but stopped for another good eye roll there. Honestly, he is vain and shallow to the point where it's nauseating.
But, still moving on, the dialogue is atrocious. It lacks any semblance of tension, and comes across as the bad lines of a screenplay that was intended to be bad. And I'd absolutely elaborate, but seriously, this review is getting out of control. From there, the book got to the point where Nick was ordered to stay inside, while his body guard went out and dragged a helpless woman back to the house. Again, not endearing in the slightest. Both Nick being too chicken to leave the house, and also the image of a woman being drug helplessly inside. Yeah guys, HUGE threat there. Aren't you manly... No, really...
The sex scene lost me at the "her breasts tumbled forth", and I can assure you, it didn't get better from there. It was bad. It was really, really bad.
Oh my good grief, this review has GOT to end, but there's a couple more things I'd like to mention Nick couldn't possibly have been able to tell that the blood drained from his face. Someone else would have, but not Nick. Nick can't see his own face. To him, the sensations would have been dizziness, coldness, a rush of adrenaline... Translation Nick's sensations would have been INTERNAL. Also, I can't recommend any author use silly substitutes in sex scenes (loins? really?). It doesn't make them cleaner or sexier, it just makes them come across as childish and silly, because what grown man isn't quite grown up enough to use something else to describe himself than lions? It is my personal opinion (but also the opinion of many others who know much more than I do about writing) that dialogue tags are the mark of an amateur author. Again, Nick wouldn't describe his own eyes as sky-blue. Somebody ELSE would describe them that way, but not Nick. It's awkward. There are pov swaps in the story once it arrives at the conversation between Nick, and I-don't-know-her-name...where they discuss something that happened in her cousin's past. Again, normally considered to be the mark of an amateur author.
Nick, at that point, felt rejected for the first time in his life, and I can't say as though I found it any more endearing than anything else he showed me. Oh my gosh, I'm not a good PERSON? I'm SHALLOW? How shocking!! Yes, Nick, you are a sorry excuse for a human being, and I feel no sympathy for you at all. Moving on again, I'm not even going to reference what the word "fatten" during a sex scene made me feel, which was not nearly as shocking as the reference to a dairy cow.
A DAIRY COW? IN A SEX SCENE?
And finally, the worst part of the book was when I realized...there's more to come.
I get that people want to be authors. I get that authors hate reviewers. I get that it's far easier for me to write this review than it is for an author to write a book. But none of that changes the facts If you're going to charge people for literature, it should be quality. And if it isn't quality, then not all the reviews that show up on that book are going to be glowing. In this case, I couldn't recommend this book for any price, even were it for free. It's a half hour or so of my life I'll never get back again. And as for the dairy cow image in reference to the vain, shallow, worthless hero...all I can say there, is that they don't make Clorox for brains.
I give this book two stars, only because, believe it or not, I've read worse.
