"Dean f***ing McQueen. Formerly Dean Summerfield. He was not only my first crush, he was the only guy I ever allowed to get close enough to break my heart. He did a thorough job of it, too."Jasper is fourteen when he falls in lust/love with sixteen year old Dean. They have an intense but complicated relationship plagued with emotional issues associated with youth and their new found sexuality.Jasper (who adopts the nickname Jazz) is scarred by the fallout and unable to form long term relationships. He has a deep seated fear of being hurt again and doesn't trust anybody, let alone Dean when they meet again years later. Dean is desperate to convince Jazz that he is a changed man and does everything in his power to lure him back.The story is full of mistrust, miscommunication and well deserved doubts. I loved the rock band setting with the performances, groupies and the media. I adored Jazz's protective and supportive friends and I really liked the bikies at the bar where Jazz worked. And the sex! The sex in this book is fabulous and steamy. The scene where Jazz and Dean make out against the back wall of the stage is so hot and they only hump against each other!The only part of the book I found that was a slight let down was the relatively rapid resolution of issues. After spending most of the book with Jazz swinging back and forth with his feelings (which is understandable), he accepts Dean's final admissions of how he 'used' Jazz when he found him again relatively easily.So in conclusion, this gets 4.5 stars because it was totally engaging, I liked the heat level and it is about a rock band!
