From the outside, Bethany Lu Carlisle has a full life: a burgeoning career as an artist, a cool New York loft, a cute dog, and two of the best friends anyone could ask for. What she doesn’t have is her dream man, Keanu Reeves. And now that America’s heartthrob has announced his impending marriage, she might never have a chance with him. Is this a sign that Bethany should give up on all of her childhood dreams and accept the high-paid corporate job she’s been offered? Or should she use the job offer’s 90-day expiration date to track down Keanu, with the help of her friend True, and convince him they’re meant to be? Jackson’s (“Sugar Lake” and “Unconventional Brides” series) latest pits the childhood dreams of a woman stuck in regressive patterns against the possibility of a different kind of relationship with her best friend.
VERDICT The novel’s premise, which rests on celebrity stalking, is problematic, but fans of friends-to-lovers romance might find it an enjoyable read.
