Review: The encore performance is always the best one =)

I had a real love/hate relationship with rock star and manwhore Dan in the first two books and every time I hoped he would redeem himself, he would go and do something else stupid to mess things up again. Being put into the "friend zone" at the end of book 2 was where he was to stay for a while and with the happy events we were left feeling all was well with the world.But NOPE, not happening...the first few pages made it very apparent that something catastrophic had happened and we don't really get the whole story until later in the book in flashback moments of the tragedy that Sophie endured. This book is more serious and less light than the first two and we see yet another transformation in Sophie as she slowly learns to fly again and heads in an entirely different (but not completely unexpected) direction with her career...one that puts her immersed in Dan's world and makes for a sweet turnaround in their relationship.I love how the story comes full circle back to Dan being once again in the forefront of Sophie's life and in a very domestic and fatherly capacity. The man has also grown up and become a better person and together these two live up to their full potential.The ending was perfect for me...bittersweet and yet somehow SO right. Rachel gets her HEA as well as provides some comedic relief as she experiences motherhood for the first time.This was a very enjoyable and well written romantic comedy series with a musical background and more intimate than sexually explicit.Highly recommend to romance readers of all genres...hard enough for rock lovers and sweet enough for contemporary romance lovers.***** 5 ***** "the encore performance is always the best one" stars
