This is the first book in the Half-Life series which is about the rock band Half-Life (good name for the series then!) and this is the story of Lock, the singer/front-man of the band and Hailey.When Hailey finds out her younger sister Chloe is pregnant and instigates it was somebody from the Half-Life rock camp, she sets off to out who, seeing as Chloe is tight lipped about her baby daddy.Hailey is a Sunday school teacher so to be in the midst of the rock star world is way out of her comfort zone. However she finds herself face to face with Lock, the lead singer who agrees that Hailey can hang around to ask her questions in return for her to be ‘his’ for sexual favours for the next three nights, which Hailey agrees to.I loved the concept of the storyline – innocent school teacher meets lusty rock singer – yeah that got my literary horn dog panting! The sex scenes were extremely hot and let’s just say anything goes. Whoo-hoo! What I did find hard to grasp was that Hailey knew what to do and that she would be so eager to get down with whatever she was told to do by Lock. There was even a threesome thrown in for good measure and a little male on male action for those that love m/m*waves hands in the air*There were some issues that were inconclusive and the reader was left hanging wondering what happened. For instance the sex tape was never concluded as to who done it and why (unless I missed something) Also the Lock and Krist connection, I was wanting more of this and their backstory as after the threesome it was kind of swept under the carpet.This was an insta love story for Lock and Hailey but I felt it needed more chemistry and connection build up in order for the reader to grasp that. The sexual heat was off the charts but in order to have a believable HEA, I just wanted more (I’m a greedy bint!)It was great we found out who Chloe’s baby daddy was and a good curveball thrown in there. That would make a good story in itself.Overall a good sexy read but needed a bit more connection and more back story of the band. Three and a half stars.
