Complementary copy given for honest review and opinion.
Hot singer and rebellious woman keeps this book hot and intriguing.

Quick read about Kayla Montgomery who is a sewing designer wiz who is escaping from NY to LA to run from a inappropriate boss situation.
Through some unique circumstances she meets Justin Beckett who is also trying to erase shadows in his own past.
Lots of action with some interesting secondary characters that could make for a series.

What a great book! I love Kayla's take no shit attitude. Justin a man who everyone had a wrong opinion of him.. Louise OMG... She is too funny and made me laugh because of her great attitude and bluntness and not caring who she told it to...i absolutely love this book

Finding a book that I can escape into and forget about the rest of the world has been incredibly difficult lately so the fact that I was able to open this one up and lose myself within its pages for a few hours was a huge gift. Kayla moves to LA to start over and ends up meeting former former boy bander Justin her first day in the city because of course. They both had difficult recent pasts and a lot on their shoulders if they want to reinvent their careers. Justin is not always written especially well. He is given a lot of great traits but if he said, “or nah,” one more time I might have exploded. I was a lot more interested in Kayla’s family dynamics than the boy band drama but I still really loved the fantasy aspect of it all. A fun diversion when I really needed one.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Books about famous people are always a draw for an easy read and this book doesn't disappoint.
Girl gets a job as an assistant to a boy band member, who is cocky and appears to need a serious attitude adjustment.
Said boy bander needs to clean up his act as he's just landed a new role in a movie, enter the assistant who has her own secrets, sparks fly.....
Is this a massively overly done plot that's been used many many many times before? Hell yes. But does it stop this novel from being a deliciously addictive and engrossing read? No, it certainly does not. The characters are well written and it's them that make you want to keep turning the page.
It's a book that's great to pass a few hours and escape the world with.

I thought that this story was a well-developed and strong story.

It was a really enjoyable bad boy turned good romance and even though the plot was a little sketchy in places I thought overall it was a still a great story and this was one that I kept on reading to find out how it would all end.

I have read a few books by this author now and she has never disappointed - it is 4 stars from me for this one, highly recommended!

LEAD ME BACK by CD Reiss. So, the blurb of this story caught my attention. Unfortunately, I was not able to truly ever really become invested in this tale. I never believed the connection between the two mains. I didn't care for either character, although Justin did work his way a bit into my heart. He truly was not the typical bad boy his image portrayed. Kayla just never made it in. I never fully understood her. The writing style also didn't work for me. I felt like things were left out and I had to re-read at points to figure out what was happening or who was speaking. The premise of this story was good, but sadly, it didn't work for me.

Wow! I don't know where to begin. Lead Me Back is AMAZING! I started it last night and had to stay up to finish it. These characters, Kayla and Justin, are electrifying. I am going to need this to be made into a movie because it is that good!

It's a story about a woman named Kayla who drives to Los Angeles for a new start. She is so creative and meant to be a designer. Her first day in LA is surprising. She meets a famous boy band rebel named Justin who knows how to charm a woman. Kayla has dealt with famous people before and so she is hesitant when Justin offers her a job as his assistant.

One job leads to another and that means Kayla and Justin are going to be spending a lot of time together. As they get to know each other better, Kayla realizes that Justin isn't all bad. He is kind, caring, and dedicated. Justin and Kayla are living in their own little bubble and it's going great. But things start to take a turn when her past continues to follow her.

I can't find anything that I didn't like about this book. The plot is so enticing and you can't help but adore these characters. I loved that this romance felt authentic and had its ups and downs. I am so excited for more readers to get their hands on this book so we can all fangirl over it.

I give Lead Me Back 5 stars. It is an amazing romance about a normal girl and a famous boy bander falling in love. It is seductive, charming, and witty. CD Reiss writes a Netflix worthy book that you can't help but fangirl over.

Kayla has no problem sticking up for herself, “yup.” She laughed a little. “I’m not here to be your doormat. And if that means I’m a ****h sometimes, oh well.” I liked this book, I liked Kayla the girl didn't put up with Justin's crap.

I definitely enjoyed reading this book! It was funny, had some heartache and heartbreak, it was 🔥, light drama, it was an all around great read! I definitely recommend reading this one! It's a standalone. It kind of had a rocker\actor vibe going on! It was really good! Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!
