Lexxi Rock is a fiery pop / punk rock singer and guitarist -- and billionaire, thanks to her father's oversight. She's grown tired of Los Angeles, the limelight, the isolation, her image, and her lackluster romantic life, most recently tarnished by smoking hot country star -- and cheating bastard -- Wilkes Barracks.
When her father suddenly becomes ill, she decides to temporarily leave it all behind. Anxious about the unwanted paparazzi and media attention that would follow her right back to her home in Tucson, Arizona, Lexxi takes a drastic, unprecedented step to hide from them all.
There's only one wild card she did not count on. Lexxi has no idea that her father's neighbor, and scorching hot firefighter, Sebastian "Bash" Sullivan, knows exactly who she is, and plays along with her ruse to get close to her.
Bash is the one reason she's tempted to blow her cover, but can she trust him? Will her disguise work for long enough to nurse her father back to health? Can Bash save her when disaster strikes?
Review
Disguise...
Disguise tells the story of a rock star who has grown a little bit tired with Los Angeles and the drama that comes with it. In hopes of taking a long needed break, Lexxi schedules to visit her home town and her father for a month or two. Yet when her father becomes sick and is having trouble recovering, Lexxi decides to stay longer than she originally thought and comes up with a clever disguise to hide her from the press. Everything is going swimmingly until she runs into the guy next door...
One thing that really stuck out for in this novel was the hilarity. The author does a really great job of making the characters easy to like by adding this whole hilarity theme to the book. Not only did this keep my attention but it also had me laughing out loud.
I really liked the reversal of roles in Disguise! Usually the rock star is a guy who never noticed the girl next door in high school, only for them to be reconnected years down the road when they have both reached maturity and have gotten better looking. Instead, the girl is the rock star and the guy was the geek in high school. This played out amazingly well for this book and I really loved how the author took this reversal of genders and made it into more of a situation of comedy than just pure romance.
Lexxi, aka Alexandra, aka Alex; was an interesting and fun character. A lot of the humor in this book came from her crazy scheme of how not to be recognized by the press and I loved how light and fun her character was. It was really interesting to see the transformation from Lexxi to Alex and I think it really showcased how sometimes people seem to have to hide who they really are to fit into the Hollywood type world.
Bash. First off, I really love his name. It's not terribly weird since his actual name is Sebastian, but I love the nickname! Second, it was so easy to fall for Bash as a character! I mean who doesn't fall in love with a super hot firefighter who completely goes with the flow on Alex's plan? I don't know a lot of guys who would risk the possible ridicule of their friends to hang out with "Alex". But seriously I loved getting his perspective on Alex and kind of how he saw the situation and his depth of emotion for her was amazing since they weren't exactly friends in high school.
Overall, this book was really funny and the writing was really good! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a great laugh and a little romance for their next read!

Bella Love-Wins Bio:
I live a little north of Toronto and dream of moving to the small town of Grimsby, Ontario one day very soon. Once I move out of the city, I would love to have a Shih Tzu and 2 cats as pets and practice kids. I love writing action-packed, steamy romance stories about new adults and characters in their mid-twenties, sometimes from wealthy families. I love my female characters to be strong, and my men stronger, with a vulnerable, sometimes broody side.I love to laugh. I think it should be a law to laugh every day. Pink is my strength and my weakness. The color, not the artist.
