Review: predictable but entertaining rocker romance
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 08 4, 2013
First off, you don't need to have read the other books in the series to read this one. each of the books is a standalone with a full story and ending. no cliffhanger (i hate that). Although the ending set up Flynn's story.This was a fun entertaining read that kept me turning pages well into the night. I didn't want to put it down even though I could tell right away what was going to happen. Renner is a beautiful American girl who is in Ireland with cousins to clear her head after some trouble. Cillian is an Irish rocker that kissed her 5 years ago and never forgot her. What happens when a rocker pursues a tough American?  ;) a fun story...that's for sure.But the author threw in the issue of alcoholism, attempted suicide, mental illness, and treatment. While I always like there to be a bit of bite in a story, and awareness of an issue is important, this one felt a bit forced. It seemed like the author just wanted to highlight another social concern, like Nix's PTSD in the earlier story. You know right away that Maeve is going to cause problems and how she is going to do it. But you still want to keep reading.Overall thought: 4 of 5 starsRe-readability: maybe if in a particular mood but it won't be one I pull up over and overSteaminess: 6 out of 10, some graphic scenes but nothing unusual or overly crudeRecommend to a friend: yesWill I read the last book in the series: yes
