Stu Killorn is the epitome of rock and roll.
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book for review from Elle Woods PR and the author. I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review.

Stu Killorn is the epitome of rock and roll.
From his smoldering guitar licks to his dangerous good looks, he’s been on the top of the world and experienced the lowest of lows—including a stint in prison. With his new band he has a second chance at life—and fame. All he has to do is keep his head down and avoid emotional entanglements.
Law student Lindsay Sager is all work and no play. Her only connection to the music world is playing supportive bestie to the lead singer of a new band. Lindsay’s focus is on passing the bar exam so she can’t afford any distractions... not even a sexy Scottish guitarist who rocks her world.
Stu and Lindsay’s sexual chemistry is combustible and their desire to keep things simple turns very complicated. She’s the first woman he can’t seem to stay away from, but when his past comes roaring into the future, can they find a way to move forward together?
My Thoughts:
Lindsay is a smart woman but yearns for a more personal connection. Stuart seems to like a good time. But as you get to know him he’s also looking for a personal connection. This is a story where we get to know a member of a band up close and personal. We get a fictional glimpse into what fans might never see.
The heat between our couple is hot almost from the beginning. Lindsay is trying to break into a very tough profession. Stuart is trying to regain himself but feels broken. There are times where you can almost feel the pain he is going through. With Lindsay, you can see how compassionate the author made her. Should you ever need her advice, she might be someone you could lean on.
I enjoyed getting to know the secondary characters. One is Lindsay’s champion and shows how good a friend can be. Another character I enjoyed is a relative of Stuart’s. She’s a firecracker and wouldn’t mind a family member like her. They help to move the story along – both through the good times and bad. Our minds may get diverted for a little while but the author knows just what to do so we know whose story we’re reading about.
Because of the business Stuart’s in, that is an important part of the storyline. It affects a lot of his life. We all realize how glamorous it sounds but never realize what it’s like for the person we put on a pedestal. I enjoyed watching how things got resolved for him because he had a champion in his corner. Their story may be finished but I’m glad to see the series isn’t.
About the Author:
USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.
A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.
Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.
As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...
