ARC generously provided by publisher via NetgalleySolid 3.5 starsI really wasn't sure I'd like this book going into it. Sometimes I find rockstar romances to be way too cheesy and over the top. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this one.Lacey Dawes was somewhat believable as a junior agent because she was definitely green. But sometimes she came across as too green, to the point that all the praise of how capable and accomplished she was seemed like overkill. On the other hand, Dante Falcone (I'm really not a fan of that name) was less believable. He's been touring since he was 14 years old and, now at 24, is ready to take a break from touring. This would be more believable to me if he had started touring when he was 24 and at the age of 34 he wanted to tour less. Still, I liked that Dante wasn't too hardened and jaded.After being thrown onto Dante's tour as his interim manager for two weeks, Lacey gets the chance to work with her teenage crush. Yet before the tour even starts, sparks are flying. I really loved the way the sexual tension played out between Dante and Lacey. And the steamy moments were so steamy! Jennifer Chance absolutely exceeded my high expectations in that department! There were definitely cringe-worthy moments where I really felt for Lacey and wanted to hide my face right along with her. The ending felt a tad rushed and slightly saccharine, but I was still delightfully satisfied. I would recommend this book to friends and am looking forward to the next book in the series.
