This was a cute, fun story! Famous in a Small Town is a new standalone book by Kylie Scott and is Ani and Garrett's story. Ani is a small town, California girl. Garrett is a widowed rock star. His wife died two years ago and he quit his band, traveling around the world trying to escape his grief alone. Now he has arrived to hide out in Ani's hometown. She has been a fan of Garrett's for years and is shocked to see him living next door. But the town embraces Garrett's need for privacy and hides him out while he sets down roots. Garrett is still grief stricken, but his friends encourage him to get back to living. So Ani and Garrett become friends, which develops into romance as they spend time together.
I enjoyed this story. Garrett is a widow, which usually isn't my favorite trope, and still grieving his wife. But the details about his late wife and how she died were vague, so it didn't much bother me. When he realized his feelings for Ani, he didn't hold himself back. He and Ani were a great match. She was laid back and rolled with the punches of being around a rock star, although she does have her own upsetting past trauma to move on from as well. I did think Ani and Garrett's chemistry was a little sparse, but overall, this was an entertaining, easy read. I enjoyed the cute small town characters. The story was fast paced and fun, despite the emotional subjects, which are not heavily focused on.
Overall, I enjoyed Ani and Garrett's journey to love. I am hoping this book is the beginning of a new series. I am intrigued by Garrett's band mates and would love to get their stories in the future. I look forward to more from Ms. Scott soon!
