I've been following S.L. Scott's books since our blog participated in the tour for A prior Engagement. I was fortunate enough to get an early copy of her latest book The Resistance. I'm a hug fan of rocker books and was super excited to hear she was writing one! I truly believe that this book is her BEST work yet! She's always had good heroines and sexy HOT heroes but the ones in this book aren't just good they were EXCEPTIONAL!!!Holliday Hughes is a business woman. She's successful, intelligent, savvy, and humbly beautiful! She's also had some rough times but she doesn't let them break her down. Her strong will to succeed sets her apart from the class of heroines I'm use to reading in books. That doesn't mean she doesn't have weak moments, but even in those times her strength, compassion and ability to forgive shine through.Jack Dalton or just Dalton whatever you want to call him has to be one of my favorite rockers to come along in a long time. He's got all the suave sexy good looks, the voice to make a girl melt and 1000 lbs of baggage! But he will make you swoon, seriously piss you off and make you fall in love with him.When these two first meet it's instant attraction and sparks fly! But doubt and insecurities quickly creep up on them both. Holliday and Dalton have a lot of issues and working through them at times is like a category five tornado destroying everything in it's path. But after the storms clear and the sky settles, the reconstruction begins. It isn't an easy road Or a short one, but when true love comes along it's worth the time rebuilding it. No love is perfect and no person is perfect. We all have flaws, it's what we choose to do about them.There are some seriously winding turns in this one that I never saw coming. S.L. Scott has a gift of surprising turns in her books. This story will take you on a journey full of angst, love, loss, friendship and passion.The Resistance isn't just a book about a Bad Boy Rocker. It's about finding your true north, learning how to cope with the past, finding a way to navigate the present, and building a bright and hopeful future on a foundation of trust and love. In the end it's a ride you won't want to get off.
