It should have been easy.
I needed the money. He needed a babysitter to keep him from snorting himself to death.
I was cherry-picked especially for him. Responsible. Optimistic. Warm. Innocent.
The worst part is that I should have known better.
Alex Winslow. British rock star. Serial heartbreaker. Casanova with whiskey eyes.
“Don’t get near the devil in a leather jacket. He’ll chew you up and spit you out.”
Sounds familiar? That’s because it was a headline in a tabloid the second time he got arrested.
Guess what? I didn’t listen.
I signed the contract.
World tour. Three months. Four Continents. One hundred shows.
My name is Indigo Bellamy, and I sold my soul to a tattooed god.
Problem was, my soul wasn’t enough for Alex Winslow. He ended up taking my body, too.
Then he took my heart.
Then he took my all.

Before she’d settled down, L.J. (who thinks referring to herself in the third person is really silly, by the way) traveled the world, and collected friends from all across the globe. Friends who’d be happy to report that she is a rubbish companion, always forgets peoples’ birthdays and never sends Christmas cards. She enjoys the simple things in life, like spending time with her family and friends, reading, HBO, Netflix and internet-stalking Stephen James. She reads between three to five books a week and firmly believes Crocs shoes and mullets should be outlawed.

This is the life of Alex Winslow…

Everybody wants to be a Rockstar. It’s the closest thing to being a god. 

Alex has hit rock bottom in his life, in his career. After releasing the album that failed big time, to losing it totally onstage at the Grammy’s, he has now completed an extended stay in rehab and is back at it. The only thing is, he now needs a ‘babysitter’. His band mates, his managers, the ‘suits’ all don’t trust that he will be able to pull off this coming back tour. 

Indie Bellamy aka New Girl aka Stardust, needs to take this job. The money being offered to her for being a glorified babysitter could change everything for her, her brother, his wife and their baby. 3 months… at the end of those 3 months, her bleak world would be bright again.

It wasn’t going to be an easy job for Indie.
It wasn’t going to be an easy tour for Alex.

I found my well in the middle of the desert. Now it’s time to drink from it. Every. Single. Drop. 

This tour was a building that was being built with each stop. Whether or not this building would last the test of time, would be determined by these two overcoming all the hidden lies, all the backstabbing from ‘friends’ and coming clean to each other. Even though Indie doesn't make it to the end of the tour, the foundation was set. 

Absolutely loved this story! From the cocky Rock Star to the ever forgiving, always loving Indie. Alex and Indie were two broken individuals that needed to find each other’s glue. Great job once again on writing a story that sucks you in from the beginning and exhales you out at the end!





“Every book has a soul, the soul of the person who wrote it and the soul of those who read it and dream about it" 
So by this standards, a piece of Leigh's soul and my soul have been left inside Alex Winslow's story. He's a Little Prince and you know what happens to Little Princes , they live a sad, depressive life and then wither away. Not unless they meet a blue haired, quirky beauty, a hanny (hot nanny) whose job is to shadow him, babysit him and keep him clean.
Their journey is fraught with temper tantrums, heartbreaks, concerts, midnight rendezvous in the hallway and inspiration. She becomes his MUSE, his life, his soul. Something to replace Tania. She's pure and sensible, two things Alex is not !!
The story was not very unique but Leigh's writing made it . She's certainly matured as a writer. The story doesn't pack much content but the treatment and emotions with sweep you away like ocean tides. Beautiful words are scattered like wildflowers on a mountainside. Abundant and colourful. 
I loved And connected more with Indigo " Stardust" Bellamy, who's as unique as her name.
“Midnight Blue,Illicit and elegant at the very same time.” 
In Leigh's own words "Arseholery is an art" and she has perfected the art of creating assholes. Maybe she keep them tied up In her basement, dishing them out,one book at a time!

Everybody wants to be a rock star. It’s the closest thing to being a god, but what people often forget is that God has a hectic job. God creates. Twenty-four-fucking-seven. God is worshipped. God is expected to answer, to deliver, to reassure. And when God is sent to earth to deal with humans? Well, God is bound to disappoint. 

I loved the broken characters and their journey and their flawed lives.
Thank you Leigh for Alex and Indie
