Leila Marino's biggest dream is to become a rock star. A lucky opportunity has her auditioning with an up and coming rock band named Devil's Lair. The band hires Leila as their back-up singer, signing her up for months in the studio and touring on the road with the sexy bunch.

Jack is the quintessential rock star: gorgeous... sexy... a walking orgasm. Jack Lair is the lead singer of Devil's Lair and his dreams are becoming reality as his band climbs the ladder of success. He's living the perfect life, and enjoying every minute of it. With a steady stream of sexual conquests that satisfies his raging libido, he thinks he has all he needs in life... until Leila enters it.

Jack is not prepared for the sudden pull he feels towards Leila, and struggles daily to deny that his attraction is anything more. Leila finds falling for her new boss is constant torment. Both convince themselves friendship is their only option.

An intimate moment causes their willpower to collapse, and their erotic love affair begins. Finding love was a bonus that neither Jack nor Leila anticipated. As they begin their tour together professionally and personally, life couldn't be any better for the couple - until a mistake from Jack's past threatens their new relationship, and their perfect future together.

I am glad that I don't always believe all the reviews that people put online because this book was a really good one and I am so glad that I purchased it. I loved the story, but hate the cliffhanger. Now I have to wait until the next book comes out to tell the rest of the story between Jack and Sutton. I really hate that it leaves you hanging until the next one comes out. I would definitely recommend this book if you love hot and heavy sex scenes and a love story that blows your mind. I love the antics between the band members so much that I had to watch myself when I was laughing out-loud at work, I was getting a lot of stares by others. This book will make you laugh, cry and swoon all in one great love story!! I can't wait until the next book comes out.

Great Rock Star Love Story

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I had a hard time getting into this book. Although I liked the gist of the story, the lack of contractions was very distracting. It made everything sound so formal and the characters personalities were definitely not meant to be formal. I think the story has potential, but the writing and character development need a little work.

What didn’t you like about Ellen Lange’s performance?

She didn't put any feeling into the characters. Her voice was monotone when the situations required much more feeling. I really had a hard time sticking to the end of the story.

Has potential

Waiting for book two. While there always some predictability with these romance novels it's still fun to read and live in the fantasy. There are four books in this series. Look forward to hearing the next. I don't want to spoil lots of ups and downs but fun.
The narrator was good. Enjoy

Loved it

I hate it when authors leave the story unfinished. I have read the remainder of the story but it was long ago, and right now I rather listen than re read.

Unfinished story

This was a slow story. I truly not sure if I will listen to the next book. Don't think this was worth a credit.

Not sure about this book!
