Review: FINALLY A Realistic Rock Star!!!
Rating: 5 out of 5

I was very hesitant to read this book. Every single romance novel I've read featuring a rock star never came off realistic. The men never acted like men and it was obvious there was little research done into the life of a rock star. This novel avoided the normal fluff in favor of believable storylines.Having known band members personally, I can tell you the behavior she wrote about is very real. Drug abuse and women are all over the place, band members don't always get along, and tour buses really do stink. It's so refreshing to read a romance novel where the author actually had knowledge of the lifestyle. In my experience, most are fluffy and rarely delve into the dark side.The characters were great as well. Jamison Matthews is a fantastic heroine because she's not some silly fangirl. She stands on her own and is well-rounded. I also love that she's a smidge on the chubby side. It's nice to see shapely women in romance novels. Every type of women should be represented in romance, but unfortunately, most are skinny and beautiful. Ryder Montgomery was a fantastic hero because he wasn't perfect. There was a dark, sexiness about him which made it easy for fall for him. I also loved that he was attracted to Jamison's shapely figure. Not every man wants an uber skinny woman, so again, it's refreshing to see it in romance.All-in-all, I am impatiently waiting for the next book in this series. Tracy Wolff is an author I will be watching. :-)
