When the impossibly hot new quarterback ignores all the pretty cheerleaders competing for his attention to come over and sit at YOUR lunch table… what do you do? I’ve always been the class dork—shy, bookish, not particularly pretty and definitely not popular. In other words, I’ve never been anybody important. Orphaned twice as a toddler, I’m not even sure who I am, other than a burden to my super-strict adoptive “aunt.” But then the gorgeous new quarterback, Rigel, arrives at Jewel High and turns his back on all the popular girls vying for his attention to seek out ordinary me—of all people! I’m over the moon, of course, but the first time Rigel touches me, sparks fly—literally! Then weird things start happening. Suddenly, I no longer need my thick glasses. My complexion improves, too. When I demand to know what’s going on, the answer both thrills and terrifies me. Not only is Rigel my bonded soulmate, apparently I’m not such a nobody after all! But my unexpected status comes with huge risks that threaten both my life and our newfound love. Book 1 of an electrifying young adult science fantasy romance series from a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, where teen romance blends with science fiction to open a whole new world of action, adventure and discovery!This series is perfect for fans of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series and Jennifer L. Armentrout’s Lux series, with its themes of forbidden romance, fated mates, opposites attract, and overcoming dangerous obstacles to achieve a happy ending.

"This is one of those moments you are happy the author found you on Instagram. Starstruck is the author's debut novel. It’s a sweet MM novel with an original concept. <br/><br/> Liam is a bisexual retired quarterback for the NFL looking for love and signs up to be on the Reality television Show the One. Upon signing up, he has to sign an NDA about his sexuality and appear to be straight. Night before taping he meets Jake to find out the next day he is the show's assistant director. They both were not prepared for events to happen and fall in love. <br/><br/> I love the originality of the story; I did keep comparing it to the Bachelor. The process was so painful for Laim and Jake. I did keep yelling at my kindle several times, especially at some of the side characters. <br/><br/> The steam factor is 3/5, and the story is sweet. I did enjoy this book and its journey as I look forward to future books from the author."

"Anyone know something similar that’s not so high school? Being in my 20s makes the “intense true eternal fated love at 15” a weird read for me "
