4.5 StarsAfter reading Drive Me Crazy I am a hardcore Shaken Dirty fan. There is never a dull moment when they are together whether on the road or at home working on their next album. To top it all off keyboardist Quinn Bradford’s life just got a lot more complicated as the girl turned woman he once loved is back in his life following her life changing accident. The band’s future is also up in the air as one member is in rehab and another band member is no longer welcome. An incredibly well written and detailed story of betrayal, friendship, hilarious pranks, and most love lost and found again. Drive Me Crazy grabbed my attention in the prologue and held my interest through the last word; this is a series not to be missed!Every time I think about the odd relationship between Quinn and Elise I can’t help but smile and even chuckle. What started as a way for Quinn to help Elise with her stage fright back in their teenage years returns as Quinn tries to help Elise with the loss of her career as a concert pianist following a horrific car accident. As much as I loved the hot as hell sexy scenes, the pranks they pulled on one another were absolutely some of my favorite moments. Man these two were devious but I’m going to give Elise the edge, I sure as hell wouldn’t want this woman pissed off at me!In addition, I loved the moments between the band members as they worked on material for their new album, tried to figure out how to move forward with the band, supported their member in rehab, but mostly for the way they accepted Elise into their fold and made her feel a part of their team.While they moved pretty easily back into a relationship but on an adult level (well most of the time), that’s not to say that Quinn’s incessant need to protect Elise doesn’t cause him to have a lapse in judgment. Thankfully he’s a man who knows the art ofgroveling and he does it so well.With each book in this series I become more enamored with it and with this fictional band. Yes, this is a romance but these books are so incredibly full of subplots that it feels like real life going on around you. The subplots don’t overshadow the romance, it enhances it and makes it all the better. Drive Me Crazy is every bit as good as the first book in this series, Crash Into Me. If you’re not a Shaken Dirty fan you are missing out!Review copy provided for an honest review.
