Review:
This was an interesting, fun read and in many ways, showed us a different kind of love: The Vulnerable kind that survives outside pressure with Sienna being famous.
We basically follow along from Sienna's POV as she gets a second chance at love with Luc through a fake relationship that might become the real thing?
Sienna is a complicated character, one that the author clearly wrote to make us empathise with her yet feel frustrated at her. There were a lot of moments that I related to Sienna: how hard it is to trust people, how grief changes who you are and you lose sight of it which impacts how others see you and the inability to be able to control everything. It's also protecting yourself from hurt when its been a lifetime of them.
I think writing a character like Sienna with the focus being that she became a pop star so young and that it has dominated so much of her life making her mistrust her own judgement of people and not being able to be her own person added a depth to the story that was done beautifully.
We also get to see Sienna acknowledge her privileges and how she balances that struggle with being Burnt out from her career and we do dive into this as a theme in the book, which I enjoyed overall.
We then meet Luc and as this is Sienna's POV only, we get the entire story from her eyes. My heart did go out to Luc and the hurt they had both endured. I think I would have liked to get to know more about Luc but usually, getting to know the other MCs in a single-POV Romance tend to be a hit or miss depending on the narrative style the authors choose. We do get to see Luc is a kind MMC, one that is willing to stand with Sienna through all her journey and is willing to be there, if she'd accept him. It did hurt my heart when he got hurt, not going to lie but that is a testimony to building a connection with our MMC.
I also loved the theory of Invisible strings, how two people are destined for one another in every life no matter what. It's when Luc tells Sienna that they would have met even if she never became famous🥺
I really did enjoy Infinite Ghost and I can't wait to read more by the author! As her debut, I think this is a lovely book and I'm excited for more releases.
Thank you to the author for the Arc copy in the exchange for my honest opinion.
