Review: I usually don't do rock star romance, but this book intrigued me so much and oh was I glad that I read it.
Its gritty and a little dark, dealing with things like addiction, which is what springs to mind in the life of rockers.
I read this kind of like a rock soap opera. It was a little bit crazy at times . Jax is the type of person you think about when you think about the 27 club of rockers. But since this is a romance, we don't have to worry about Jax turning into Kurt Cobain or Jim Morrison.
I've not read any books in this series before, and now I want to, because though this was a stand alone novel, I think I'd like to get the progression of the guys in the band and their relationships, but hey, I'm always late to the party.
This was a strong read, and it reminded me of why I read Jackie Collins back in 80s. I love tales of sex, drugs and rock n' roll.
Rating: 5 flowers

“Jax,
wait!” She grabs my arm.
“Still
not ready to sleep?”
Please
God, let her ask me to hold her. That happens in Jera’s romance
novels all the time. And okay, the heroes never pop inappropriate
wood, but that’s just because they’re a bunch of pussies.
Ava
nods, and I can’t quite read the look in her eye. Her hand feels
soft on my arm and when it drops away, my skin tingles. “If you
want to trade in truth or dare for a bedtime story next time, I rock
at Dr. Seuss. Jera’s daughter can’t get enough of rhyming.” I
half-smile. “Songwriter’s kid, you know.”
“Sorry.
You should go catch a nap before the plane lands. I need a new damn
boyfriend is all.” Ava sighs. “Hate sleeping alone.”
My
heart jolts and I briefly debate the wisdom of jumping up and down,
waving my arm in the air. Decide against it on the basis of possible
un-coolness points. “You could try your bodyguard. Judging by the
look he gave me when I was on my way in here, he’s dying to play
Big Spoon.”
Ava
laughs. “Yeah, not even a little bit. Plus, his wife is in my
knitting group back home.”
“AVA
knitting? From the girl who started the skull-with-pink-bow trend,
that’s some serious blackmail, so now we’re even.” She still
looks glum, so I skim my knuckles down her arm. “Come on, you’re
not really alone. You’re on a tiny plane with the world’s most
prescient flight attendant, a vampire bat, and a makeup artist whom I
suspect of reading the dictionary. For pleasure.”
She
laughs, squirming around until she’s straight on the bed again and
squinting up at me as a tiny curl falls into her eyes. “You’re
crazy weird, you realize that, right?”
“They’re
your hand-picked staff, not mine.” I head for the door and pause
with my hand on the knob. “I’ll totally stay and cuddle with you,
you know. As long as you have sex with me three, maybe four times
first.”
“Four?”
She pushes her hair out of her face. “Oh, is that all?”
I
wink. “‘If you never did, you should. These things are fun, and
fun is good.’”
“Oh
my God, did you just sex-quote Dr. Seuss at me?” She explodes into
my favorite laugh, the gasping snorty one.
I
close the door, grinning. Which sucks, because I look like a fool
when I realize her bodyguard is still awake, swiveled so he can watch
me come out of her airplane’s bedroom.
And
he still hasn’t blinked.
