Joelle married Rob Williams, lead singer of the rock band Zenith, before she was old enough to know better. She has spent years following Zenith around, while they struggle to become rock stars. Only now, alcoholism has replaced the talent that once was going to make Rob a legend... leaving Joelle's life spiraling out of control. The problem is there isn't a soul in the world that cares, including her husband.Nick Lassiter is a powerful business magnate in Seattle, Washington and was acquainted with Joelle, long ago before she became Joelle Williams. Nick's return to Joelle's life gives her a link to a world outside of Zenith. A world that starts to become far more appealing than the crazy, alcohol-soaked one she lives in. Until the fateful night when her entire life implodes and Nick is the only person she has to run to. Joelle soon sees only one thing clearly: Nick Lassiter has become so much more than just a friend who can save her.When Zenith disbands and Rob tries to get sober, Joelle begins to discover her own identity outside of Zenith, and the person she finds is nothing like the young, fragile girl who needed rescuing when Nick first met her. Who she discovers just might be a woman worth loving.This is a great first story to a wonderful series of books. Each story is related to a the band, Zenith. This is the story of Joelle and Nick. He is older than her and very rich. She knew his family in high school. His sister was her best friend. Her husband is a drunk and she is just basically keeping everyone afloat. I sat down and read this story in one afternoon and then downloaded the next two stories in the series. I loved them and the characters that much. I thought the author gave so much detail and also it wasn't just a story of a man rescuing a woman but the woman finding herself also. There is an HEA in each story but they continue the characters into the next story. The stories seemed realistic but also had the romance that I like in a story. I also liked how the hero didn't expect the heroine to change into something that he liked but let her be herself. You don't see that in many romances. I would read all three books in the series.
