Book Description
Join the heart of the 90’s punk scene where one woman finds her tattoo-covered, bass-playing prince charming in a whirlwind rock star romance--the third spinoff novel after 44 CHAPTERS ABOUT 4 MEN, the book that inspired the hit Netflix original series SEX/LIFE. In 1999, BB Easton met her Prince Charming. He was the tall, tattooed, wickedly handsome bass player for the up-and-coming rock band Phantom Limb. But, more importantly, he was hers. She knew it the moment he flashed her that shy, dimpled smile. And he knew it too. Hansel “Hans” Oppenheimer wore his heart on his sleeve and poured his soul into every lyric he wrote about BB. Unlike the guys she’d dated in the past, Hans showered her with tenderness, took her places she’d never been before, and showed her the type of all-consuming love she’d thought only existed in fairy tales. But, like any good fairy tale, her road to happily ever after was paved with challenges, and right when she least expected it . . . it forked. "Star is the kind of '90s teenage dream you won't want to wake up from. BB's world is hotter than stage lights, and this must-read book is your backstage pass. I love this series!" —Kayti McGee, author of Want To view a comprehensive content warning, please visit the author's website.
