This story centers on the country music band Saints and Sinners and the bands relationship with their publicist. Patricia or Trish hears the band playing and makes her way back stage to tell the band that she is their girl if they want to expand their reach. When she gets backstage she see Jarrod and her heart is gone. However, she knows there is nothing she can do about it.
The story crosses over 5 years and is told in an alternating point of view and with flashbacks. The flashbacks consist of various points in the relationship history where Jarrod and Trish were fighting hard to not be attracted to each other. The story is strong and developed, however I think with the way it was told, I was unable to become attached to the characters. Or perhaps it was the depth of the characters was not a defined as the plot. I am not sure what happened but I was not as interested as I wanted to be.
That being said the writing is strong and the characters are likable enough and this is an easy sweet read, a great way to escape. An interesting part of this book was how pivotal and important Trish had become to the band collectively and to each individual member. This novel was a little lite on the angst level for me, but then I love a lot of angst. This novel is a standalone novel but there seems to be some set up for a second novel. Which I will read.
The moment she spotted him, she reminded herself that this was business and she couldn't let herself lust after this man. For heaven's sake, she didn't even know his name.
As she walked toward him, he turned around at the sound of her clicking heels. When their eyes met, she stopped dead in her tracks. The intensity she'd seen in the man on stage was nothing compared to his intensity right now.
With a heart-stopping smile, he greeted her. "Hi." His voice was soft and raspy, like a well-aged scotch you'd want to enjoy down to the last sip. He held out his hand to her. "I'm Jarrod."
So, her fantasy man's name was Jarrod. "Patricia."
"So, Patricia, what can I do for you?" Sexual innuendo filled his voice, and judging by the flicker of lust in his eyes, he meant it that way. She could only imagine the kind of indecent proposals this man received on a daily basis.
"You guys are really good," she managed to say, without sounding like a complete idiot. Having this kind of instant reaction to someone was new for her. She didn't know why, but there was something about him that drew her forward. He was like a magnet pulling her closer and closer.
"Thanks. So, I've never seen you around at any of our shows before. Is this your first time?"
She wondered how many women had done exactly what she was doing right now.
Heat caressed her cheeks as she reeled in her lust and dirty ideas before they got the better of her, and answered, "It was. Thanks for making it painless."
"Always happy to pleasure a beautiful woman." Somehow, she didn't doubt that for a minute.
Kaithlin Shepherd was born and raised in Canada where she learned to figure skate and crafted a love affair with coffee. Growing up in a household filled by strong-headed women, she learned early on that life is what you make it. You’ve probably never met a bigger country music fan and in the words of Brooks and Dunn, she’s a die-hard ‘George Strait junkie.’ Constructing a world away from her real life, Kaithlin loves the feeling of creating a universe where her fans can forget about everything in their life. She loves writing about hot alphas and doesn’t shy away from turning up the heat with scorching hot sex scenes.
