Product Description:Amy's life is about to get rocked by an alpha hunk who always gets what he wants...Down on her luck and working two jobs to make ends meet, curvy redhead reporter Amy Reid's life is turned upside down when she is assigned to interview international rock superstar Rick Borrell for her magazine. The lead singer of Beautiful Losers is instantly smitten by Amy's sexy curves and sharp mind and, in one wild and crazy weekend, is determined to sweep her off her feet and into his arms.But forces are conspiring against them...for Rick has a secret that the press is about to reveal that threatens to destroy his fledgling romance with Amy and turn her normally sedate life into a whirlwind of rock star chaos and front page headlines...=============================================================================================================================Firstly, Rick is no alpha male. Secondly, we didn't get much of a description of him so I couldn't tell if Rick was indeed a 'hunk'. Amy has red hair and big boobs and gets compared to Christina Hendricks. Of course Rick is instantly attracted to her.Rick is an International Rock Star but not sure what nationality (he sounded as British as Amy to me). He doesn't act like a bad boy though. He talks about the recession and tells awful jokes (and I mean awful!). Amy is confident in her curvy body. After knowing Amy all of five minutes, Rick is already telling her stuff 'off the record'. Within a day, they are in bed together and even though he's a 30 year old 'international rock star', they don't use protection and it's not even mentioned! Rick doesn't see the point of messing around if they both feel the same so they agree within a day to be boyfriend and girlfriend.The secret Rick has is nothing sensational and I don't see how it could 'threaten to destroy his fledgling romance with Amy'. How Amy handles it was something I imagine all celebs and rock stars do, so nothing original in that.I felt no connection between the H&H; and this is not 'erotic'. The next book is already out which is set six months later but there is no originality in this tale and I have read it many times before but better. However, the writing style is good and I didn't notice any errors. I think if the author could come up with a more original storyline, she has potential.
