PLAYED BY THE ROCKSTAR by Christina Hovland - REVIEW BLITZ

 


 Release Date: February 25

He's a rock star.
She's a waitress.
He's about to rock her world.


Certified behavioral counselor (and former band groupie) Becca Forrester needs a break. Taking a leave of absence from her job, she moves into the apartment over her parents’ garage, and clinches a gig waitressing at a dive bar known for bringing in big name musicians.

Cedric “Linx” Lincoln is a certified rock star. Bassist for the hugely popular rock band, Dimefront, he’s in Denver while the band is on hiatus a-freaking-gain. He's looking for something—anything—to keep him occupied until they can all get back to making music. When he saunters into his friend’s bar, he finds the perfect diversion.

Becca’s presence is a breath of fresh air. The sizzle she ignites in him is precisely what he needs. Bonus: no-stress, no-strings hookups are his specialty. But when things between them tip toward serious, his band implodes, and Becca's leave of absence ends, they’re forced to decide what their “real” lives should look like. Maybe there’s room for an encore…

Played by a Rockstar was one of the best romantic comedies I’ve read in a long time. 

This book had me laughing from start to finish. The interactions between the characters throughout this book were absolutely hysterical at certain points. My favorite was the scene between Becca, her mother and her girlfriends. Oh I was laughing so hard throughout that scene. 

Becca is a long time fan of the rock band Dimefront. She’s such a big fan that she spent an entire summer touring Europe going to their shows. When Becca’s life as a therapist gets to be a bit too much she decides to take a vacation from her life. She decides to become a waitress for a few months at her best friend’s husband’s bar. Never in the world did she expect the bass player from Dimefront, Linx, to walk through the door though. 

Throughout the book Becca fights her attraction to Cedric (aka Linx) but her psychotherapy skills are no match for the charm and patience of Linx. 

I haven’t enjoyed a book as much as this incredibly funny and charming romance. 

 I can’t recommend this book enough!
