4.5 precious stars!!! This read has been on my radar for a while now; I really don't know why I waited, but I'm so glad that I finally got to experience this precious, coming of age story. Every time I watch an entertainment show or pick up one of my favorite tabloids, I often wonder how much is true or embellished to sell an image. After reading this story, it only makes my concern of celebrity even greater; publicist and agents spinning stories to make the public think one thing, when something entirely different is really happening.This read is a beautiful and eye opening example of just that. I absolutely fell in love with all the guys of Static, especially Danny and Elliot. They showed such strength and maturity, in what was an extremely sensitive and stressful situation; I found myself literally cheering for them, as they completely captured my heart. The author did a wonderful job in how she handled the intimacy of this couple, and the reality of their love. Now that I've caught my breath, I want to thank the author for a wonderful journey! I'm a die hard lover of GFY storylines, devour them, need them, but when I added this one to my TBR pile, I did what I hardly ever do, read reviews, I tend to shy away from them due to loads and loads of spoilers, but what I found was every single review kept referring to the said such person Larry Stylinson, who the hell is this? So I googled it, what I found was a huge made for tv/book saga centered around Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson , from One Direction, which in turned named them Larry Stylinson ( mushing their two names together ) I became utterly engrossed in finding every single detail of their love story( if it is even true , let's say for name sake it is ) ...it's rather epic, their adorable, they need their freedom to be, if what I see with my eyes and ears, is true, they need their HEA....but back to this book, I found myself falling into complete love with all the little things that are Danny & Elliot , I had to put it down many times , it was breaking my heart over and over , the constant struggle, an over controlling management , your a boy band , you need to live up to the boy band image, just sad, fame , money do strange things to people, but at what cost for utter happiness ? Unlike Danny/Elliott they get their HEA , Harry & Louis, the jury is still out....it's real life not a fictional story!! I know this has become a Larry review and not a book review, but the book does flow nicely with events that have occurred for the real life saga , I can picture it all happening just as it did in this book!
What do You think about Catch My Breath (2013)?
I loved, loved, loved this story. It can happen.
