It all started with Rock-God, Nick Blackthorne...
A Heart of Fame Reunion Story
After many years, rock star Josh Blackthorne is finally marrying the woman he loves on the tropical island resort of Bandicoot Cove.
The guest list is small but insanely famous—Hollywood stars, rock stars, a legitimate British knight, international sport stars—and deeply intimate. Yes, this wedding is going to shake the world.
And then the father of the groom, in typical Nick Blackthorne style, goes and does something no-one could have predicted...
Get ready for the looooooong-overdue Heart of Fame reunion...just in time for Christmas.

Review:
Longtime fans of the Blackthorne Family have been given an amazing early holiday gift with this short reunion story.  I have followed this family from the very first novella when Nick Blackthorne appeared and we got to meet the arrogant sexy rock star and getting to see all of the extended family and family friends come together in this time of celebration and see all that has happened was a fun experience.  For anyone that hasn’t read all of the stories, you might be a little lost, but to be honest this story isn’t for you guys, this truly is a gift from Lexxie to her most loyal readers that have been along for this amazing ride.  Josh and Caitlin’s wedding was the perfect reason for everyone to come together for the holidays, but with all of these different characters combined you had to know there was going to be a ton of craziness. Nick steals the show a bit but in the end this story really is about the hard-learned lessons and long-earned rewards of a man that once lost the love of his life and has had to work hard to prove that he was changed man in order to deserve his second chance at life.  With lovers and friends, family and guests all combined into the most amazing party of the decade, the Blackthornes steal the show and our hearts one last time in the wedding to end them all with lots of little surprises and laughs and tears along the way. I loved seeing everyone come back and reminisce about their own love stories, relive their pasts and appreciate how far they have come in their loves and lives.  It is obvious that without Nick, his struggles, and his courage to overcome his fear, all of these couples would never have come together and found their happiness and this story reminds us once again how one man can truly change the lives of so many.  Embrace love folks, because love if the most important part of life and we have no idea how important or how long those lives will be.  I was sad to see this series end and getting this little bit of a reunion was awesome, but I had a few tears as I said goodbye once again.  I am looking forward to whatever comes next for Lexie and wonder if we might have another amazing series like this to kick off an all new world.
