4-⭐

This was a beautiful novella.
I loved the concept of a late night version of Jane Austen (I would genuinely read that kind of fanfiction) and the author/actor combination for the MCs 💕
I really loved our modern day -not- Mr. Darcy and his proactiveness (is that even an English word?) in pursuing and wooing Jane.
I liked the fact that Jane was such a headstrong character. And the fact that both MCs were ultimately sweet as two teddy bears.
The steamy scenes were a nice touch but I admit they didn't make me sweat. But maybe it was just my mind being other places today...

Anyway I'll definitely check the whole series by the author at the beginning of 2025.
I liked her style.
And (good)steamy novellas are like the episodes of a good sitcom. You have never enough ✨

Thank you to Netgalley and the author for sending me the arc for this novella!

I've never read anything from the author so I don't know what happens in the first 3 installments of "Falling for Famous", but this seemed too fun to pass out which means for once I'm going to read it backwards 😂

I absolutely adored this spicy novella. Finn is everything that Jane hates until one delicious encounter. This novella had me giggling and kicking my feet. Highly highly recommend

Perfect novella for those that enjoy the enemies to lovers trope and Jane Austin! I loved Finn and Jane's story and I can't wait to read more from this series!

This book is so fun! Loved the characters and their situation they find themselves in. It was darling!

Anything that has anything to do with Jane Austen or Pride and Prejudice- I will read. The main character is Jane. She's an author who writes Jane Austen fan fic. Though her first book was a success, something very unfortunate is said, and a horribly embarrassing meme was created while on Jane's previous book tour. Now she's rolling on to book tour two, and she's learned that *THE man, *THE Darcy, who caused the unfortunate meme previously is about to be in the same room with her.
Celebrity, Finn Lyons was her favorite Mr Darcy at one point. He stars in the Quill, which is a pride and prejudice fan fic show.

This cute novella romcom is the perfect fun read. This story somehow pulled me in with its beautiful writing and descriptions from start to finish. It's hilarious, the main character is relatable, it's enemies to lovers, and I love that it's Jane Austen. Also, for a novella this little thing is packed with spice.

There's also a fictional bookshop I guarantee every reader will wish to visit.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for giving me this opportunity to read and give an honest review of this book.
This review will be posted to Goodreads. See link below.

Oh dear, for a novella, I liked this one more than I thought I would. Jane was traumatized by hot shot-playboy Finn, from his damming interview that damaged her reputation. Unexpectedly, the two were stuck in the stock room and fireworks (the verbal and non-verbal kind) ensues. And he works hard to earn her attention and trust. He likes the fact that she doesn't want him for his fame or fortune and dish whatever it is to ground him, made him feel challenged. Though Jane is fully under the protection of her mom, I'm also glad that she stood up to her, and remind her that Jane is not a little kid anymore, even though the mom's experience with men was poor and tough. Finn's family gives no mercy either, they knew he's can be a jerk, but also know that he's heads over hill for her. He does whatever he can to continue to be considerate and earn her love. She realized this is the 'real deal' and there's no turning back, if this doesn't work out, it will end badly. But after much going back and forth, she was finally willing to take the leap. And I'm so glad they both got vulnerable and move forward. P.s. there's a few steamy scenes even though this is a hundred pages or so. Definitely worth the read!

Thanks to NetGalley and Sunshine & Story Press for the ARC, it was a very fun and enjoyable read. I wanted to lear more about the author and her other books.

First of all, Thank You Netgalley for the ARC granted to me. I am a huge enhtusiast f anything that has to do with Jane Austen's book "Pride and Prejudice", so when some narrative includes it in its premise, I'm All in. And this another one that succeded well in that concept. I liked the main characters and the story.

This is of course a novella, so rather short and it also speeds up the story. But it is very nicely done.

Jane is an Austen fan and also a bestseller author. Her books are - originally - fanfic stories about the series The Quill (based on Pride and Prejudice). The lead actor in The Quill is Finn Lyons and first Jane was a really big fan but after a disastrous interview Finn gave in which he implied Jane was in love with him she became the subject of memes and internet trolling. So when Finn enters the bookstore where Jane is also giving a reading and they get locked up in a storage room... Jane is not amused.

A very enjoyable story with great characters and lots of heat!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a fast paced novella. I adore it so much. 😻❤️

Thanks to the author and netgallery for the ARC.

Out right now on KU, brb while I go read the other first three in the series. I might have discovered a new author that I will reading her whole library! 🥳

Sweet novella. Completely stand alone. Great for a quick read.
I liked the premise and I am now hunting down the rest of Deeham's books.

Everything I wanted in a book as a Jane Austen fan. If you love steamy romance, Jane Austen, Darcy and Elizabeth, and books without third-act breakups. READ THIS BOOK!

I am going to be messaging all my friends to read this one!

Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for an arc. All opinions expressed are my own.

A super quick, whimsical, sexy, novella for fans of Austen everywhere.

This book made me smile, laugh, giggle, and kick my feet. If you’re looking for fun novellas with spice to read before the end of the year, add this to your list!

I definitely will be going back and reading the others in the Falling for Famous series!

Thank you NetGalley and Victoria Editing for providing me with this advanced copy.

Tropes:
Insta Lust
Movie Actor MMC
Romance Author Heroine

This was meant to be a novella but I thought its length was appropriate and well developed. Jane Romano has struggled with her confidence since Hollywood heartthrob Finn Lyons, humiliated her in an interview. Whilst she had a crush on him, after that interview, she has avoided him at all costs. When she finds him at the same bookstore as her, she is mortified. When they end up trapped together, truths are gradually revealed.
I really enjoyed this romance between two misunderstood characters. Finn is such a sweet guy who catches Jane, completely unaware with his sincerity. A romance writer to look out for!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This story focuses on Jane and Fynn, whose lives are brought together by Pride and Prejudice. Jane is an author and Fynn plays Mr. Darcy on a TV show. Their chemistry is off the charts, and they quickly fall in love.
I personally dislike the instalove connections and therefore the story fell a little flat. I also found the side characters lackluster.

Jane is an author whose new book, Leather and Lords, came from fan fiction of the popular show, The Quill. Too bad the actor who plays Darcy, Finn Lyons, has dismissed her work as that of an obsessed fan. And it's even worse when the two attend the same bookshop to do signings and end up stuck in the back room trapped together.

I love a forced proximity story, and I really appreciated that this book provided a portrayal that some of the most popular romance writers who came out of fan fiction experience (love Ali Hazelwood and Lana Ferguson!) and the experience of losing the freedom that comes from writing anonymously. I would definitely read more of the Falling for Famous series!

I am always up for a Jane Austen adaptation. While this book isn't really that, the inclusion of Darcy's character plays a role. This was a fun, quick read. I am interested in reading more from the series.

Fluffy feel-good novella

The standalone novella attached to the Falling for Famous Series is very enjoyable, light and sexy.

Jane is an author of spicy romance books who reached fame through her fanfiction of a successful TV adaptation of Pride & Prejudice. Finn is the show's lead actor and, according to an interview, despises Jane's writing and thinks she's obsessed with him, which turns her career on its head and makes her dread any public appearances. Also, what is this writer's block she's experiencing?! When they meet in Jane's favourite book café, thing come to a head..

I really enjoyed this book. There is no real crisis, no bottom dark pit of despair, but the chemistry between Jane and Finn is amazing! They have a lot of banter and I think without prolonged negative stretches this novella is a perfect cosy, sweet and spicy read. The stakes are low but you really, really don't mind.
There is some spice and a cameo - plus some very fun texting.
The only thing I genuinely don't get or agree with is the title, but hey ho.

Great for fans of Bridgerton, Jane Austen and fluffy romance!

4 stars!

What a sweet little novella! Realistic? No. Lovely to read? Yes!

Lovely Jane Austen references here and there, a sugary romantic story, but also a bit of reflection on how to be honest with yourself and find the direction you want to go in your professional life. And the knit-a-thon was fun!

This was truly a joy to read, such a sweet little snack!

WHAT TO EXPECT:
* Book about books
* Enemies to lovers
* Forced proximity
* Hea
* Insta lust
* Open doors
* Opposites attract
* Point of view: dual 1st person
* Steamy

Okay, this was a perfect little novella that had me giggling and kicking my feet! Was it a realistic timeframe or circumstances for how the main characters met, fell in love or how it all worked out? Not even a little bit and it was all the better for it! When your FMC (Jane) is a fanfic writer turned traditionally published author, the cornier and more fanfic-like her relationship with the hunky Darcy actor, the better! And what a hunky, golden retriever he was. I fell in love with the MMC straight away and loved what a goner he was for Jane. A cad he may be, but like our girly said… sometimes that’s just more fun!

Thank you to Sarah and NetGalley for allowing me to read the ARC copy!

5/5 ⭐️
2/5 🌶️ (the supply cabinet for the win)

Thanks for NetGalley for short novella. It was cute love story about Jane a writer and Finn Lyons. It was giving enemies to lovers vibes thru our the book. Definitely a good book if your looking for a short read. I read this a standalone but it's part of a series.
