Book & Author details:
Get Real by Tellulah Darling
(Get Real, #1)
Publication date: September 26th 2015
Genres: Comedy, New Adult, Paranormal, Romance
Synopsis:
Magic and Mayhem in Manhattan
Francesca Bellafiore comes from a nice Jewish family — one that happens to have magical powers. Underneath her good-girl exterior, though, she’s a wannabe badass with dreams of becoming a paranormal detective.
Party boy Rafael Muñoz does everything possible to publicly disappoint his high profile father. Privately, it’s a different story. His carefully crafted bad boy reputation masks the fact he’s a master illusionist, forced into solo covert ops. The role is wearing thin and Rafael longs to be part of a team.
When Francesca and Rafael meet, it’s love at first sight… For about five minutes. Rafael is spectacularly attractive—and, Francesca discovers, fully aware of the fact. Rafael knows from experience that girls like Francesca are more trouble than they’re worth.
So it sucks big time when they’re caught in a web of magic, minions, secrets, and enough sexual tension to power NYC. Their only chance to save the city and survive is to team up, trust each other–and maybe even fall in love.
Provided they don’t kill each other first.
Get Real is a romantic comedy, urban fantasy whirlwind with sass, sex, and swoon.
My 3.5 star review of Get Real
Get Real is my first Tellulah Darling book, and I don’t think
it will be my last. It is the first in a series though, with dual POV, and I am
sure the rest of the story well follow- I can’t wait to see what goes on. It is
actually a very complex book- with all kinds of different languages and
nationalities. It is about magic, so there are some new words to wrap your head
around. And I am so glad Tellulah takes pride in her universe that she created,
you can definitely tell.
Rafe and Frankie are the main characters- I really enjoyed both of them- they have the cute way about them, but also drama!!! There is definitely chemistry between the two, and of course they fight it. That’s the magic of it all (see what I did there? Magic!) I enjoyed Rafe- and he was super hot!! Frankie exhibited so much spunk!

The plot was well thought out, the characters showed growth and range, and above all it kept me interested. Interested so much so I cannot wait to see where this series goes, especially with all the other characters that were developed in this first installment. And even though some things might start out as confusing- like the lingo, just keep going, it will be worth it!

Sassy girls. Swoony boys. What could go wrong?
