It really hampered his relationship with Shannon, and led him to do some drastic things to get her back.
I liked Dean well enough, and he was a bit unique among musician heroes, but I think he took the whole hiding his other identity a bit too far. The story was cute enough, but bogged down by the hero and heroine's issues. This is more of a 3.5 star read, that I'm feeling generous enough to round to a 4 star rating. Was it too late to stop hiding and start doing a little trusting of his own? Because a relationship requires honesty and trust to make it work. Right? But the closer he gets to Shannon and her children, the more he realizes he may have made a mistake in keeping the truth from them. So he has a good reason for hiding his alter-ego from his neighbor and everyone in Scallop Shores. Years ago, as lead singer for the boy band Five of Hearts, Dean learned that women only wanted him for his money and fame. But her new neighbor was hiding something, and she was intrigued. Looking more delicious than any man had a right to, Shannon wanted to ignore him. So she may have been a tad excited to learn someone had bought the house next door. Sure it got lonely being out here on the bluff, away from the rest of Scallop Shores. Her mother raised her alone and after her ex-husband deserted her upon learning they weren’t having one baby but three at once, she was doing the single mom routine with her own triplets. A gorgeous redheaded caretaker and her three mischievous heathens. Unfortunately for him, that summer rental next door came with a year-round caretaker.
The only other house on the road is a summer cottage and was sure to be empty except for a few weeks during the summer. His new house, on a rocky bluff overlooking the Atlantic, seems ideal. Dean was looking for a quiet place to put down new roots and leave the craziness of his old celebrity life behind him.
