I met Adam Nova under the twinkling lights of a nighttime sky.
He was hiding, but that gorgeous boy didn't belong in the dark.
Nevertheless it was where he lived; a different world than mine.
I was Livingston Montgomery, Southern debutante.
With the world at my fingertips, I was well on my to being another spoiled socialite.
But I didn't want money.
I didn't want social status.
I wanted him; tattoos, sarcastic smirk, bad boy reputation and all.
It didn't matter that he was from the wrong side of the tracks.
It didn't matter that my family forbade me from seeing him.
I just wanted to be Beneath His Stars.

BOOK REVIEW
4.5/5
Livingston was the rich girl, and Adam Nova was the boy from across the bridge. He was forbidden. They were supposedly not meant to be. Their worlds but different. But the moment when their worlds collided, it was different.
It was dangerous, but Livingston could not stop herself from crossing the line and meet the guy who knew and tells her about the stars. They weren’t from old money. Her father had earned it the hard way, not with her father gone, it was her stepmom who was holding the reigns until she was old enough. She hadn’t wanted anyone in her life, not wanted anything besides her freedom - until Adam Nova.
Adam is a smart guy. But he knew where he belong. He couldn’t run out of town because he had to take care of his dad. And now this girl, from the other side of the tracks (the good side of the tracks) came rushing into his life, taking his breath away.
But will fate ever let them?
I liked this book, I like the stars reference and the us-against-the-world kind of thing. Although, of course, there’s the fact that she was just 16, and he was 19. A bit off, but besides that - everything else was nice. Their meeting, the notes, the danger lurking and them getting together in secret. Nevertheless, no secret is going to remain forever What happens when they’re found out.
I was on the edge of my seat, wishing that I had the next book. Because I wanted them together. I wanted things differently. I wanted a nicer ending. I wanted a happy one. Not with my heart broken and devastated. Nevertheless, the ending of the first book will make you anticipate for the next one.
Excerpt:
“Are you smoking?” Her lip curled in disgust.
I nodded.
It was her turn to look disgusted this time. “Do you even speak?”
I nodded again and she shook her head in disbelief before reaching over the space between us and snatching the cigarette out of my mouth so fast I didn’t see it coming. I stood there dumbfounded. People didn’t snatch shit away from me. People were scared of me. Not this brave girl. I should have known.
“Smoking is disgusting.” She said it quietly like it didn’t matter, but I could tell it did to her. She bent over and put the butt out on the driveway before standing up again and shoving it in her pocket.
I smirked. “You gonna keep that?”
Her eyes ignited with anger. “No, I’m going to throw it in the trash because I’m not a litterbug.”
Shaking my head, I muttered under my breath, “Fucking litterbug.” She was being cute. The girl with the too long legs and too big mouth that I couldn’t get out of my mind was fucking cute, too. I was screwed.
I wanted to full-on smile at her cuteness, but I held my happiness close to my chest. God knew it always came with a price. And I was done paying.
“You kiss your momma with that smoke mouth?” she asked snarkily, clearly pissed off about my smirk.
I lowered my head and took a step back, running a hand through my dark hair. I wanted to tell this girl things. Things I had no business telling her, like that I didn’t kiss my momma with anything anymore. Instead, I asked the question that had been plaguing me since she’d seemed surprised it was me who had left the notes.
“Who did you think it was?”
Her face screwed up in confusion. “What?”
I stood straighter and licked my lips before answering. “Who did you think left the notes?”
I was feeling strangely vulnerable in that moment waiting for her answer and I didn’t like it one bit. Why did it matter to me who wrote her or didn’t? Or who else thought she was the most intriguing thing ever? For fuck’s sake, she was just another rich bitch from the island. Why did anything about what she was about to say matter to me at all?
She bit her lip again and I still wanted to reach over and pull it from her teeth. It was sexy that lip bite, innocent even, and for some reason that made it all the more attractive.
“I don’t know.” Her brow furrowed in thought and she looked away, almost like she didn’t want to tell me the answer to my question. But then her eyes landed on mine again. “I thought it was the other guy—”
“Boone?” I interrupted loudly.
A disgusted look crossed her face. “God, no. Not him. The blond. The other guy.”
I let out a long breath accompanied by a sarcastic chuckle. “Grady?” That guy didn’t even graduate high school and she thought he knew anything about astronomy. I would have laughed if the whole thing hadn’t annoyed me so much.
Her eyes brightened. “Is that his name?”
I pulled out my pack of cigarettes again. “You like him or something?”
“What? No!”
I walked out into the street and lit my smoke far away from her.
She started to follow me. “Where are you going?”
“Home.”
“But I don’t even know your name!” she yelled and stomped a foot.
I almost smiled again.
