![]() ![]() ![]() Kaylee goes off to play, but shortly after, Ryder hears her screaming and rushes into the play area to check on her, practically colliding with the guy … which of course leads to much awkwardness when he catches sight of Ryder’s face and realises he’d been overheard. It’s not the first time he’s heard stuff like that and it won’t be the last, but it still hits a nerve. Ryder and Kaylee are at a play centre when Ryder overhears a guy – another single dad, he assumes, as he’s sitting with a boy a few years older than Kaylee – dissing Eleven and their songs as “lazy and cliché”. Two years later, and with Kaylee now four-going-on-five, Ryder has his hands full working as a producer as well as being a single parent of the rather precocious child he’s trying desperately to keep well away from the public eye. When Ryder Kennedy left Eleven, it wasn’t because of personality clashes or creative differences – it was because he wanted to be a proper father to his young daughter, Kaylee. The story has a number of things in common with book one, Pop Star – a closeted lead character, a realistic portrayal of the workings of the music business and the way so much of the media treats celebrities – but those similarities didn’t outweigh the rest of the story or make me feel as though I was listening to the same book all over again. ![]() Spotlight is the second book in Eden Finley’s Famous series, which tells the stories of the members of the world’s biggest Boy Band after it breaks up. ![]()
