OH MY GOD! Grab the tissues, Danielle Jamie’s new standalone novel, Tempt My Heart is so emotionally raw its crazy, I spent at least 50% of this book crying my eyes out. Brittan McKenna hasn’t had it easy, yes she’s a rock star but her life isn’t all that awesome. She’s had 8 years of heartache and doesn’t see away out. With her new tour starting soon Brittan needs to get her head in the game and focus on what’s coming up and keeping herself clean and sober.Jordon Valentine, the sexy guitarist for Tempting Tomorrow is a ladies man and he has his sights set on Brittan. He and Brittan have an instant sexual connection and that is about to throw a spanner in the works of all Brittan thinks she wants. Jordon Valentine gives Fall Out Boy’s Lite ‘em up has a whole new meaning and its fantastic, you’ll blush every time you hear it.The way this book is written is so heartfelt and personal, when you cry at parts, I can guarantee she had to be crying too, there is absolutely no way you can write a novel like this without feeling all that emotion. Brittan, Cane and Jordon’s story is so amazing and inspiring you can’t help but feel connected to them and their story. The strength that Brittan had throughout floored me, going through something like that and carrying on is phenomenal.The supporting characters are brilliant and just as well thought out and written as the main ones. Roxie is Brittan’s best friend and has been there through all the tough times in her life, she is Brittan’s voice of reason and her crutch and her point of stability. Without Roxie its safe to say there would be no Brittan. Brittan and Jordon’s bandmates became a surrogate family and throughout the novel, like Roxie they have been a crutch to help her heal and deal with her problems.This book will make you laugh and it’ll make you cry but most of all it will make you appreciate what you have and look at life a different way, or it at least that's what it did for me. I can’t begin to express how much this book touched my heart.5 Big Ugly Crying Stars!!  (More if the sites allowed!)
