I read a sample of this book several months ago but wasn't impressed.  The writing/dialog seemed stilted and the storyline seemed bland.  But I did decide to buy the book yesterday and I am so glad I did because I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!  The story had everything I love - tons of drama and angst, extremely steamy bedroom scenes, a sexy alpha male who is tattooed and pierced (Declan is my new book boyfriend!) but still incredibly romantic and wonderful, and a kick-ass female who doesn't take any crap from anyone.  There's also tension in the form of a stalker and a kidnapping.I've read a lot of books and if they have more than a few secondary characters I sometimes end up getting confused about who each of them are.  Not so in this book - there were a huge amount of friends and band mates that were constantly in and out of each scene but I had no trouble keeping them straight.  The author did a great job of introducing each character and focusing on them long enough for them to become real people in my mind.  My only complaint is that this ended on a HUGE cliffhanger and now I have to wait for book 2!One note - the editing in this book was not the best.  Lots of word substitutions and switching from past to present tense.  Also some odd wording, like the characters shake their heads yes.  Isn't it nodding for yes and shaking for no?  I only mention this because I am a huge stickler for tight editing but it still wasn't enough to detract me from loving this book and being anxious to read the sequel!!
