When the world of happily ever after is altered and obscured, and not only by one enticing man?

For Lauren Moreau, her journey is full of raw emotions that will tempt you with curiosity and intrigue, and squeeze out passion and angst until your heart bleeds.

This is Hollywood, after all…

Review

The Devil Has a British Accent is a coming of age romance with a paranormal twist. A girl who has to protect her heart and the men who want her.

Lauren has just returned from Minnesota after graduating. She doesn’t have any real plans for the future but has decided to help a family friend with her catering business while a film crew is in town. I liked Lauren, she has gone through a lot with her family and is figuring out what comes next and that makes her relatable. She is also trying to figure out her love life when a sexy actor enters her life. There is something about him that she is drawn to.

Jackson Cruz is an actor that finds himself completely infatuated with this small town girl. He has many secrets that could change her life forever. I didn’t like Jackson for Lauren. He wasn’t my favorite character. I wondered why he cut himself off emotionally to her a lot of the time and I think because of that I didn’t connect with him as much as I wanted to.

Cary is another actor/musician that is famous but has been a family friend to Lauren’s family since they were children. He is best friends with her brother Blake. I really liked his character. I knew he was keeping secrets from Lauren but there is something about the way he cares for her and her brother that stuck out to me.

I found The Devil Has a British Accent to be a good coming of age paranormal romance. The beginning was a little bit on the long side but the ending was fast-paced and Lauren’s world really changed forever. This is a to be continued story so I can’t wait until the next installment.
