What’s On My Netgalley TBR?

_{Ariel del Mar is one of the most famous singers in the world. She and her sisters – together, known as the band Siren Seven – have been a pop culture phenomenon since they were kids. On stage, wearing her iconic red wig and sequinned costumes, staring out at a sea of fans, is where she shines. Anyone would think she’s the girl who has everything.}

_{But lately, she wants more. Siren Seven is wrapping up their farewell tour, and Ariel can’t wait to spend the summer just living a normal life – part of a world she’s only ever seen from the outside. But her father, the head of Atlantica Records, has other plans: begin her breakout solo career immediately, starting with a splashy announcement on a morning talk show.}

_{The night before, Ariel and her sisters sneak out of their Manhattan penthouse for a night of incognito fun at a rock concert in Brooklyn. It’s there that Ariel crosses paths with Eric Reyes, dreamy lead singer of an up-and-coming band. Unaware of her true identity, Eric spontaneously invites her on the road for the summer. And for the first time in her life, Ariel disobeys her father – and goes with him.}

_{Caught between the world she longs for and the one she’s left behind, can Ariel follow her dreams, fall in love, and, somehow, find her own voice?}

_{A year ago, Emily was ghosted.}

_{But it’s fine, she’s over it. And Andy was never part of the plan anyway. She’s working on Project New Emily – New Emily goes to cocktail bars, wears ankle-breaking heels and has her life together. She’s looking for a new man to match; Andy’s old Converse and bad jokes were never going to work.}

_{Thoughts about Andy are firmly in the past – until his name is spelled out on a Ouija board at a party. Emily discovers that Andy didn’t ghost her – he died. And just as she’s trying to work out how she feels, Andy turns up in her flat as a ghost. A ghost. In her flat.}

_{Once she’s over the shock, Emily realises she needs to get rid of this ghost of dating past so she can focus on the new man in her sights – and that the only way she can do that is to help Andy solve the mystery of his death. But as she spends more time with him, she remembers how nice it was to let her guard down and just be Old Emily sometimes.}

_{Emily must choose between her new life and the past that’s come back to haunt her. But she soon discovers that when it comes to putting her ghosts to rest, it’s not as easy as she might think…}

_{There’s never a good time to bump into your ex – so Maya Bashir is shocked when she comes face to face with her old flame Sam Holland, who is wearing nothing but a tiny apron, working as a naked butler at her friend’s Christmas party.}

_{Having driven home for the holidays after losing her boyfriend, flat and job – and dreading her father’s inevitable disappointment that she still doesn’t have a fifty-year-plan – perhaps Sam is exactly the distraction Maya needs.}

_{But as sparks begin to fly, Maya doesn’t know if she can let Sam back into her heart so easily…}
