A fun angst filled, well developed story. The attraction between Noah and Pepper was quick and filled with fire & heat. Our Heroine Pepper is a shy woman with a beautiful voice and poor self esteem; due to her mother’s constant put downs as she was growing up.  Pepper was exposed to the music scene as a child, through her father’s work with Rolling Stone magazine; from afar she had always idolized the band Blackthrone, and secretly liked the drummer Noah Holden.  A chance meeting one day at work, and a band in need of a singer puts Pepper and Noah on a collision path.I found both Noah and Pepper’s character’s to be well written, believable and likeable. I enjoyed the supporting characters especially Pepper’s roommate Frank, and the rest of the band. Noah was a contradiction to the usual rock star persona, in that he was honest, caring, loyal, wasn’t arrogant, egotistical, shied away from the groupies, and didn’t flaunt his fame. Pepper stayed true to her character, remaining the shy, scared of large crowds, good at what she did, smart and sexy.  I was happy that the author didn’t have Pepper’s character quickly overcome her issues and become a famous singer, I was happy with her future with the band.The book was of medium length, didn’t have too many story threads, was an easy read, and had no cliff hanger. I did find some typos in the books but they did not take away from the story.  The sex was hot, tasteful and supportive of the story line.For me a 4 star read just because I enjoyed the story
