*This book is #2 in the 'Bama Boys series. While it can be read as a standalone, it is a continuation of book #1 and is meant to be read after Forever Red.*
Putting others needs before his own was all Mike Carson had ever done.
First, it was the friends he loved more than family. Then it was his country. By nineteen, he was a father, a husband and fighting in a war not many people believed in. After an accident ended his career and his life fell apart, he filled his days keeping screaming fans from reaching the most famous country rock star in the world. And, pining after a woman who would never love him.
Then, everything changed.
He thought he could handle anything that was thrown his way. He thought running my security detail would be the easiest job he’d ever had. He thought he’d be able to keep me safe without getting attached.
He was wrong.
They call me reckless, selfish, and slutty. In reality, I’ve just stopped caring what everyone else thinks. I’m determined to have some fun, to live life my way, and to make Mike realize that being a little selfish isn't the worst thing in the world.
I think we both have our work cut out for us.

Forever Red
Please note that Forever Red is only 99c right now!!!!!
“We are going to get in that porn star shower and use it for what it was designed for.”
I glanced over his shoulder, trying to see said shower, but the curtain was pulled. Mike’s fingers, racing back up my legs, pulled my gaze away. When two fingers snuck under my lace panties and yanked, tearing them straight from my body, I jerked my eyes back to him. He merely raised a brow.
“You’re going to wash my hair?”
My bra was his next victim, and it went sailing over his head and across the room behind him. “Such a smartass.” His thumb traced my bottom lip. “I’m going to wash every single part of you, Miss Molly. But I’m going to get you very dirty first.”
He stepped back, putting just a smidge of distance between us before yanking his own shirt over his head and then dropping his jeans. The man had gone commando. Good Lord, he was trying to kill me.
I longed to run my fingertips down the deep ridge between his pecs, tracing the bumps of his six pack, then over his hard flat stomach. From there, I could walk my fingers to his hips and back, enjoying the shallow grooves that formed a v, leading straight to…
I completely lost my train of thought when I realized that he was once again bare. Bald. I did what I could to keep up with my ladyscaping while I was on tour, but the bus wasn’t really the best location to maintain a close shave, and there were no places along our tour route that I trusted for a drop-in wax. How in the hell did he find the time to keep himself hair free?
Unable to keep the thought to myself, I asked him. Instead of responding, he raised an eyebrow and watched me for a minute before he tipped his head back and laughed.
I waited until he’d composed himself a little. “What in the hell is so funny?”
He only grinned. “Only you.” He shook his head, still smiling. “I’m standing here, buck ass naked, looking like this”—he glanced down at his body while motioning to the part of his anatomy that was pointing at me—“and the only thing you notice is that I shaved.”
I settled my hands on my hips and narrowed my eyes at him, ready with a snappy comeback when I realized that his eyes were glued to my chest. I dropped my eyes, remembering too late that I was just as naked as he was and the girls were pushed out because of the way I was standing. I moved my eyes back to his face, rolling them when I saw that his were still glued to my boobs.
I gave them a little shimmy, just a little shake, making him groan. The entire situation was so absurd, a scene from someone else’s life—not mine—that I started to laugh. Within seconds, he’d joined me, and we were two naked morons cackling in a hotel bathroom until tears burned my eyes.
5 star
I was given this book for a honest review.
When I started this book I wondered will it be as good as book one, I shouldn't have even given it a second thought this book is as good if not better.
What happens when you love someone for all of your life but she will never be yours except as your best friend, Mike has this with Lia Kelly they have been best friends forever and when she asks him to come back on tour and be Molly's security guard he can't refuse and after all it will put him back with his friends.
Molly is a country artist who is best friends with Nate Kelly who happens to be Lia's husband. The press are having a field day with Molly accusing her of being a home wrecker. When her past comes back to haunt her can Mike protect her .......
I loved this story and I loved the characters. You have friends who will do whatever is needed to protect each other, you have Mike who has always put others before himself and you have Molly who is really a innocent girl playing the rockstar. This story is told in both Mike and Molly's POV and I enjoyed reading their thoughts on each other.
Carina Adams has given us another 5 star read and I cant wait for book 3

I really enjoyed the first book in this series 'Forever Red' and was excited to read this book!
This is Mikes story...and what an incredible book it is! I absolutely loved it!
You should read Forever Red prior to reading this book, however Mike does give you some back story part way in!
I loved the way he cared for his friends and family! He was a kind, caring, strong man as well as a protector! Lia asks him to come back to be singer Molly Rays bodyguard! He does, of course, having missed his friends as they have him.
I especially loved the way Molly and he started off, how their friendship progressed and the strong sense of family with Nate and Lia.
This book has so many elements that made it incredibly difficult to put down.
The way Molly struggled, how her family saw her was sad to see. Then when someone from her past comes on the scene, things get rather intense as well as scary for her! In the end though Mike and Molly seem to compliment each other. Mike has his own demons to deal with but with his friends by his side, do things get better for him?? You will have to read it for yourself to find out!
Loved it all, loved the ending!
Carina should be incredibly proud of this book, she has written something wonderful!
Must read! Add it to your TBR list!

I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
Having read the previous book in this series, Forever Red, I was more than excited to see what Carina Adams had in store for Mike Carson. Please note that although a standalone, I would highly
recommend you read Forever Red first as Out of the Blue continues on from where it left off.
I love that Ms. Adams paired Mike with Molly Rae. It was totally unexpected, but these two
characters apart are great, but together, they are totally awesome. They really are perfect for each
other and I am impressed with the way their lives were woven together.
What an emotional roller-coaster of a ride Carina Adams takes us on. Mike is such a caring and giving man, always looking out for others, never really worrying about himself. However, when Lia married Nate, you could almost feel Mike’s pain, leaving, was all he could do. He has always had a “thing” for Lia and seeing them together constantly becomes too much and he leaves the tour.
Now, Lia has come looking for her childhood friend, she needs his help. She wants him to come back on tour and head Molly’s security team. He likes Molly and believes he can do the job. He can get his life back. Or so he hopes. What Mike doesn’t realise is his life is about to change dramatically.
The chemistry between Mike and Molly sizzles. I really love these two together, and particularly like
the strength and determination that Molly shows throughout the book. I loved that she was vulnerable and I really loved reading about her knight in shining armour Mike. These two belong together. Two
halves on a whole.
But what happens when it becomes more than a job? Will Mike run when he realises he is falling for
Molly? What happens when both Mike and Molly’s pasts come back to haunt them? What will
happen when the tour ends? To find out you need to read this story.
This book, as with her previous book, was well written and thought out. The characters had flaws,
were human and you can well believe that you could meet these two in “real life”. I was hooked from beginning to end.
This is shaping up to be one of my favourite series and certainly one of the best I have read this year.
Cannot wait for more and highly recommend you pick up these books or at the least add to your TBR list. You won’t be disappointed.
Carina Adams has been writing and creating characters for as long as she can remember, allowing her to fall in love with the next man of her dreams with every new story.
Thankfully, fate stepped in and granted her the ultimate wish - a life full of men. Carina lives in a picturesque New England town with her husband, the man who ruined the thought of all others, and two amazing sons who always keep her on her toes.
Carina received her MBA in May, but would much rather play with her imaginary friends (the voices in her head) than work her 8 to 5. When she isn’t trying to juggle being a working mom with karate and football practices, surprising her children with her sci-fi movie knowledge, or writing, you can find her with her nose pressed against her kindle, laughing with friends, or living life vicariously as her Derby Girl persona, Writers Block.
Carina is the author the of Bastards MC series and best selling Forever Red. She is currently writing Out of The Blue, the follow up to Forever Red. She loves to hear feedback from her readers, no matter what type. You can email her at:carinaadamsweites@gmail.com
