Make It Real by Sabrina Elkins

Publisher: Harlequin Teen

Release date: November 4, 2014

If you want real love, you have to let someone in.

There are movies, and then there's life. Taryn Lord knows that better than most. She's just been cast in her first big-budget role, playing the girlfriend of überdriven, incredibly gorgeous heartthrob Connor Hayes. Getting involved with him in a high-profile romance to boost publicity isn't her idea. But maybe he's a better actor than she gave him credit for, because the real Connor is infinitely more intriguing and attractive than the surly star she thought she knew.

Hollywood loves a bad boy, but Connor's demons aren't ones he's willing to share. So he stays closed off from everyone. Until Taryn starts getting under his skin—and into his dreams. Their on-set fling was supposed to ignite social media and then fizzle to nothing. Fake is easy. This is raw, unpredictable and risky. Because when the cameras stop rolling, there's no choice but to get real….

Contains mature content and some sexual situations. Suited for readers 16 and up.

Reasons for my pick this week:

After reading Sabrina Elkins' steamy book last year, Stir Me Up, I literally have to read more of her stories!! It's a must read! I can't wait to devour Make It Real! I've been wanting to share this book for so long. 

I'm not even kidding when I say it might be the only NA book that I really enjoy. So with that, go check Stir Me Up and of course, Make It Real!
