About this listen
Superstar Kiki has it all...except someone to love.
Kiki Loveless is the queen of pop music and has done it all on her own, without a man’s help. So, when her record label hires a bodyguard, she’s determined to protect her independence by driving him away, convinced her trusty can of mace can do the same job just as effectively as any security team. She soon realizes that might be a challenge: Her new bodyguard is Josh Coleman, a hunky former classmate who’s surprisingly persistent and worse, remembers how gangly and shy she was before she became a music powerhouse.
As much as she wants to hate having Josh around, Kiki can’t. He helps navigate cringeworthy paparazzi photos, handle vain male co-stars, and hold back rabid crowds who would do anything to have a piece of Kiki. When Josh is asked to step up as her opposite in Kiki’s music video, it’s not long before she realizes the sparks between them aren’t merely for show.
While everything else is going so well, Kiki’s ex arrives unexpectedly and makes it clear he’d love nothing more than to see Kiki fail - even if it means dragging Josh down, too. With so much at stake, Kiki must decide if shining at the top of the pop charts is more important than risking it all for love.

Story
If someone is going to accidentally kick the smokin’ hot backup guitarist in the groin, it’s gonna be me. Fame and love can only get easier, right? As a gifted songwriter with big ambitions, my career was going nowhere. Life changed when Collin, a guy that made me go gaga, asked me out. He posted a video of an impromptu performance he dared me to do which received attention from a record label powerhouse. As amazing as that was, kissing Collin at the end of the night was still the highlight.

Story
After finding out that my boyfriend cheated on me, I packed my bags and moved to Sunshine Falls. My uncle's ready to retire, and he has always dreamed of me taking over his partnership at the animal clinic in town. My surprise came when he introduced me to my new partner—and it's the cute guy I was talking to at the coffee shop. It's okay, though. I'm not looking for a relationship. My priorities are my career and starting over. Ivan and I clash at every turn, and our transition is anything but smooth. Throw in the exotic animals that keep showing up, and I think we're doomed.

Story
There is nothing like hiding a secret identity from your roommate besties to complicate... everything. And when they decide I need a love life makeover, I can't tell them why I don't have time for their schemes. Retirement home nurse by day, lead singer of a rock band by night. Not on the schedule: Men. I'd rather cuddle with Bernice, the hangry boa next door. I can't think of an excuse fast enough to get out of betting my prime parking space against them finding me true love, but luckily, they pick the worst possible guy for me.

When I travel to the small town of Sunset Ridge for the reading of my great aunt’s will, I have no idea that my sisters and I are about to inherit a lodge. Or that my rugged Alaskan neighbor is the caretaker I’ll be spending all my time with. Falling for Ford Harris would be unwise. I’m supposed to get the lodge listed for sale and leave. Not to mention that he hasn’t dated anyone since his wife died four years ago. The little sister he’s super protective over let it slip that he swore off ever falling in love again.

Once, I knew this girl who sent a video of herself to her brother's best friend…while she was hopped up on pain meds. And he didn’t reciprocate her feelings. Sounds like a hilarious story, right? WRONG. This really happened…to ME, Melanie Taylor. That was five years ago, so I’m over it—over him. At least, I thought I was…until West got traded to the D.C. Eagles and moved to the same city as me! Oh yeah, did I forget to mention my brother’s best friend is Weston Kershaw? An incredibly talented and famous professional hockey player?

Melody Gallard may be the daughter of music royalty, but her world is far from glamorous. She spends her days restoring old books and avoiding the limelight (one awkward tabloid photo was enough, thanks). But when a producer offers her a lot of money to reunite her mother’s band on live tv, Mel begins to wonder if it’s time to rattle the cage, shake up her quiet life…and see him again. The only other person who could wrangle the rock and roll divas.

In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

Oldest story in the book: boy meets girl, boy falls for girl, boy screws up massively, girl tells boy to suffocate in the fruits of his very own unborn children. Heard it before? I'm sure you have. So what's so different about this story? Well, it's about me, The Modern Gentleman, New York City's top advice columnist, and my rather ungraceful downfall from my pristinely polished pedestal. It's about a girl I met who threw all my proven theories to the wind and left me awkward, needy, and absolutely head-over-wing-tipped shoes in love.

My new boss likes rules, but there's one nobody dares to break... No touching his banana. Seriously. The guy is like a potassium addict. Of course, I touched it. If you want to get technical, I actually put it in my mouth. I chewed it up, too....I even swallowed. I know. Bad, bad, girl. Then I saw him, and believe it or not, choking on a guy's banana does not make the best first impression. I should backtrack a little here. Before I ever touched a billionaire's banana, I got my first real assignment as a business reporter.

My cocky boss thinks this internship was wasted on me, and he doesn’t hesitate to let me know. But he’s wrong, and I’m going to prove it to him. If I can stay away from his devil lips, that is....

Shiny and Sweet Romance
The characters in this story were masterful. Kiki was the perfect blend of flawed humanity and likable. Josh was everything you could want in a hero, strong and kind. You couldn’t help but be drawn in by their story and want to cheer them along.
This is a highly entertaining and sweet story that will keep you glued until the end!

Super cute
How a Star Shines is a super cute YA book with interesting characters that are easy to pull for (or not). The storyline has a nice pace and is fun. The narrator did a nice job with her performance.

Less vocal fry
I loved the book! The story was great! But the narrator was way too valley girl and used too much vocal fry for my taste.

(4.5 stars) - Fun diva romp!
This was a great addition to what's developing into a pretty entertaining series. It's not quite perfect, but it made for a diverting couple of hours & was exactly the kind of escapist fare I was looking for after a grueling day.
Kiki's a tough as nails, independent woman who doesn't need anybody. Until Josh comes along and she begins to realize that sometimes we want to need someone and even need to want someone!
*Clean romance level: passionate kisses
[The narrator does a great job reading naturally & distinguishing the characters' voices]

Good Narration
HOW A GIRL SHINES. Rachel Eliker
Narrated by Megan Meyer
This plot was more than just about the limelight and pop star Kiki. She was a big star, loved her fans, and loved what she was doing. Her love life was a zero, trusting people another zero. On tour they brought in a body guard Josh, bringing in a good chemistry. Deals with insecurity, and wanting someone to love them. Not what they can get or use by knowing them. First to know of this author and enjoyed it, and will look for more by her.
The audio by Megan Meyer was good, added depth to the story.

fun exciting romance
An enjoyable fun, fast paced romance between a popstar and her bodygaurd who she went to school with. Kiki distrusts because she has been used so much from peopke wanting to futher their own careers. Josh remembers shy sweet Kiki from younger and her secrets. Knowing their real selves makes for an entertaining and interesting romance. Throw in a little drama from the ex boyfriend makes for engaging must listen. this story is wonderfully narrated really bringing the characters and scenes to life
