Jenna & Jonah's fauxmance - Emily Franklin & Brendan Halpin


Fans of romance don't need to look any further than the fauxmance brewing between teen idols Charlie Tracker and Fielding Withers-known on their hit TV show as Jenna and Jonah, next-door neighbors flush with the excitement of first love. But it's their off-screen relationship that has helped cement their fame, as passionate fans follow their every PDA. They grace the covers of magazines week after week. Their fan club has chapters all over the country. The only problem is their off-screen romance is one big publicity stunt, and Charlie and Fielding can't stand to be in the same room. Still, it's a great gig, so even when the cameras stop rolling, the show must go on, and on, and on. . . . Until the pesky paparazzi blow their cover, and Charlie and Fielding must disappear to weather the media storm. It's not until they're far off the grid of the Hollywood circuit that they realize that there's more to each of them than shiny hair and a winning smile.

Mon avis : Une petite romance young-adult. Je n'avais jamais lu le genre. Ce n'est pas bien différent de la romance adulte, sauf que c'est plus soft. Ca reste mignonnet, un peu cul-cul par moments, un chouïa trop mielleux par d'autres. Mais globalement ça se lit bien. Une parfaite lecture d'été, qui ne demande pas à réfléchir. Des personnages loin d'être parfaits, bourrés de défauts et de doutes. Peut-être un peu trop jeunes pour que je m'identifie à eux (bon sang le coup de vieux !), mais qui restent sympathique. Enfin, la plupart du temps. J'ai quand même quelque fois eu envie de les secouer un peu les ptits capricieux !
