“Hands down, this is the hottest book I’ve ever read!” ~ Author Elle ThorpeOne woman. Three men. Some things are best kept secret.When Creslyn Knight auditions for the role of a life time, she never expects three things:1.To know the casting director—intimately.2.To be insanely attracted to the three stand-in actors at the audition.3.That she’d soon be putting her morals to the test when her … morals to the test when her resolve weakens.
Acting is in Creslyn’s blood, and she’s focused her sights on one thing: landing the role of a lifetime. But she’s always been told that everything comes at a cost. The casting director names his when he tells her she must make him believe she can surrender to a harem of men, or he can’t justify giving her the lead role.
Determined to prove him wrong and show him she can tap into a passion that deep, Creslyn throws herself into rehearsals. But the fine line between script and reality soon starts to blur, leading her and three men into unchartered territory. The only problem? She has a jealous roommate, a disgruntled mother, and a string of paparazzi hot on her trail, making Creslyn question the cost of everything.
In a world where some things are best kept secret, is the price of fame too high when it comes to the heart?
The Stars in Her Eyes is a new adult, steamy contemporary romance that features all the heat you expect from a multi-partner romance, with a storyline and HEA readers crave with a contemporary love story. Finally, the best of both worlds!

If you are looking for a super-steamy read with awesome characters I HIGHLY recommend!
WOW. Smoking HOT book! The main characters in this one are insanely sexy AF and will leave you squirming in your seat, in a GREAT way. Holy smokes!
Creslyn is a young and upcoming actress in LA. She auditions for a role of a lifetime and meets Matias, Knox, and River. These three men soon create a whirlwind of passion, desire, lust, emotion, and naughty naughty feelings. While some people may view this type of story and relationship as taboo or think of Creslyn as a “hussy” for indulging in three men, you may be missing the point of the well written story.
I applaud Creslyn for her honesty in her feelings and emotions. She doesn’t hide them from these men and in return they are all quite honest in their true feelings as well. Creslyn, of course, doesn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings but also follows her heart and gut when trying to navigate through these new sexually charged waters. All three men offer her different things and makes her feel different emotions, all of which she can’t help but enjoy and want more of as they steam up the pages together.
PLUS add on a tight friendship with her BFF Grady, you have a book that felt like it would burn up in my hands. Dang!!
I highly suggest this book for anyone with an open mind, an open heart, and one who is looking for a storyline with true heart felt human emotions. It’s not ALL about the sex either. Creslyn and her “fellas” are all dealing with other types of baggage and situations that add to the plot and their overall emotional reaction to each other.
Fantastic book, fantastically written. Definitely sit and enjoy this book with a nice glass of wine in bed. You won’t regret it!
When I first started reading this book, I did not expect it to turn out the way it did. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised in this beautiful story of finding your happiness in unexpected places. It has amazing amounts of heat, great character building and a story that holds your attention.

Wow. This story is just so full. Cresslyn goes through a lot. She gathers a ton of baggage along the way. There are millions of things going on and man it starts right away and with a bang. I like all of these characters and want to see more of them. There are a couple of big time surprises. Just do not blink or you might miss something. I like Matias but I think Knox might be a favorite.

A hot, steamy romantic read that may have you blushing at times. It’s sexy, yet sweet. Strong characters and a well developed, well written story line.

I am quickly becoming a great fan of C.M. Albert. I love reverse harem stories but not all are great. This did not disappoint. It had angst and suspense and some undeniable chemistry mixed in with outside obstacles and ones created by Creslyn and her guys. But boy, is the ride worth it. It’s sexy and so good.

This was a start of a amazing series! Creslyn is an actress trying out for a big lead her part might land her in world of trouble how can she spin that?
I really enjoyed this book. Might even be closer to 4.5 stars instead of just 4 stars. Most of the time you see the reverse harem books they seem to be fantasy or science fiction. As I’m not a big fan of those types of romances, I am glad to see more and more that are contemporary, or at least more that I’m having brought to my attention. While there was a bit of what seemed pretty quick emotion-wise, really it ended up being more realistic that I was afraid it would be. I liked that the story was about what would be a normal type of movie being filmed, but also included a reverse harem. Would love to see more like that, and not have them considered B-movies or worse. All of the guys were great in this, and that made it really hard to choose who I wanted Creslyn with at first. Because I did really like Grady, he seemed like he could be the right one, having been her best friend. And then I thought maybe her old flame, her first actually, Ryder, might be one to add into the whole harem as well. So in my mind, I thought the whole harem might be a big larger than just her co-stars Knox, Matias, and River. Of course I have my own thoughts and opinions on each of the guys. River, owned a bookstore, but had a man-bun, a total turn off for me. Knox, a definitely dominant/take charge kind of guy, but wanted to be called Daddy, and that’s just creepy to me. Sorry. And then Matias, nothing turned me off about him. So he was perfect. In the end there was a major twist, that put a change in the relationship between Creslyn and one of her guys, something I didn’t see coming. I like how it was handled by the author. I guess I didn’t realize this is going to be part of a series, but I’m happy for that, and have my hopes for who the next book will be about. Will all the books be reverse harems? Or just this one? I look forward to reading on and finding out.
Oh yeah, a few other thoughts. I like a lot about this, based on my own personal experiences. I like that they were all still able to be friends, and that the one she really liked and who really liked her, was able to not let old fashioned opinions or views on women keep him from still seeing her as his girl, even knowing and having been part of the “harem” with her and the others, his friends. It actually even relates to my own short story in a way, and might give me some ideas on how to handle that aspect in my own story.
I loved that this was more than a reverse harms, only sex book. It was deeper and the relationships were too. It was still sexy and steamy, but had so much more to it to keep you interested. Each of the guys in the Brotherhood were awesome in there own way too. I’m excited to see what happens after the way the end of the book ended. Glad there’s more books!
Creslyn is an up and coming starlet when she encounters the three hottest men she’s ever seen. And lucky her, she gets to act out some fantasies with these men when the casting director (whom she has an intimate past with) tells her he can’t justify giving her the lead role unless she can prove to him that she can realistically show that she can give herself to three men at the same time. Yep…
And it’s as hot as it sounds. But, and that’s a huge BUT, it’s also much more than just hot. Because The Stars in Her Eyes isn’t just some piece of erotic fluff. It’s a true journey that Creslyn takes. A journey of self-realization. A journey of love and lust and passion. I won’t tell who, if anyone, she ends up with, just know that this is a wonderful story and you really need to read it, even if you aren’t into reverse harems, even if you don’t even know what a reverse harem is. I have my favorite of the 3 beautiful men Creslyn gets to experience. I won’t say who of course, but he’s swoony and sweet and hotaf. So get your fingers to clicking, and download a copy today!
Well, smack my ass and call my Suzie, this book, was just WOW! I am still gobsmacked after reading this sinfully beautiful story. Honestly, I did not read the blurb on this book, I just started reading with an open mind. My expectations were blown out of the water.
Creslyn is a strong, enticing leading lady. She’s a Hollywood starlet with a rising career, but she has one goal in mind, landing the role of Suri. this would elevate her career to new heights. During the casting auditions the director, Ryder, is a rude, stubborn, bullheaded bastard, but insanely attractive. Ryder holds this role in the palm of his hands and Cres knows it.
The opposite roles are 3 different men, all of which have completely different from the next. Knox is the ruggedly sexy with beautiful eyes that hold hidden depths. River is the handsome, thoughtful, compassionate one. Last but not least Mattias, he is sex on a sick with the caring and attentive qualities that a woman desires.
If you enjoy steamy reads, hot, sexy romances, multiple partners, you defiantly need to read this diamond. The emotions conveyed though the written words are exceptional. C.M. Albert is able to keep the readers attention in a complex story of love, hurt, troubling pasts and friendships. Phenomenal read with the sexiness level of 100 out of 10. (so hot, want to touch the heiny)
Now, here I am sitting in front of a lonely computer with a book-hangover, ever so not patiently waiting for the 2nd book of this series.
This is one smoking hot book! From start to finish C. M. Albert had me totally engaged as I followed the story of Creslyn Knight and her 3 Men. While there were simultaneous relationships with the characters throughout the book, each wanted what was the best and would make Creslyn the happiest. They helped her develop and grow as an actress and woman. She also taught her men a thing or two. Can’t wait for the next books. I know C.M. Albert will deliver and sure to please.
HOT HOT HOT!!!
OMG never thought I’d read a harem, actually until this book I’d never really understood the meaning of the word harem lol.
So much fire and passion. I struggled to put it down, sleeping is overrated anyway, right?
I love how all the characters had their own stories and each brought something new to their relationship/s.
Parts had me on the edge of my seat. Others had me upset for her and her broken relationship with her mother and all that went along with it. Especially the cliff hanger on chapter 29
Can’t wait to read the books to follow….
Yes, this book is steamer than anything I think I’ve read in a long time. But there is so much more to it than that.
There is the bond of true friendship that will stand the test of time, even through all the hardships. There is scandal, and family drama and seeing what drives people to do what they do. Yes, there is chemistry, but there is also that deeper connection you find with that one special someone; the “one extra yummy flavor”.
3.5 Stars
This is not a short book and I wasn’t sure what to make of some of the characters, they weren’t all very nice but it’s not a bad read.
3.5 Cranky Stars
This book was not for me, although not badly written and there is a story line running through it. The main character Creslyn is an actress. Her grandmother left Creslyn her whole estate, much to her mother’s anger. Her mother was a ‘has been’ actress after sleeping with the wrong husband, turning her into a bitter alcoholic. Creslyn moved into her grandmothers bungalow with her best friend Grady. Creslyn was auditioning for a big part and found out the director was an ex boyfriend from college. The movie was about her and her harem of 3 men. Basically the 3 male actors are all friends and very hot, she is intermate with all of them whether together or apart. Well basically the whole book is about her relationships with the three men. Will she get her happy ever after ending after nearly losing her career. Too many sex scenes for me, but those whole like erotica I would put this down as a must read.
