ABOUT THE BOOK:

“There was hate once. Hate born from dangerous attraction and fate’s cruel design.

There was love once. Love destined to kill us if we didn’t surrender to our war.”

Eleanor Grace suffers an awful affliction. She’s falling for a man who doesn’t deserve her affection or her forgiveness. But there is no cure, so she does something reckless, stupid—she throws safety to the sea and leaps into danger.

Sully Sinclair suffers the same affliction. He’s falling for a goddess who will never earn his trust or his heart if he can help it. However, he wasn’t prepared for the lengths she’d go. How far she’d push to either stop such a bond or kill them both trying.

An elixir given to a monster.

A goddess running for her life.

An ending neither of them can survive.

From Wall Street Journal & USA Bestselling Author M. Robinson, comes a rock star contemporary romance filled with angst and all the feels.

Synopsis: 

Once upon a time…

There was a little girl who believed in fairy tales and happily ever afters.

Hoping.

Praying.

Waiting…

For her prince to come.

Together they’d conquer the world.

Slaying dragons, demons, and villains.

Until her Prince Charming let his demons prevail.

She cried and begged and prayed.

She hated him.

She loved him.

She couldn’t save him.

“I’m sorry.”

“I love you.”

Were five words she despised more than anything.

Her fairy tale had become her worst nightmare.

She didn’t know how much more she could take.

She didn’t know love could turn into hate.

There were so many things she didn’t know.

Especially, how to tell him, “No.”

Synopsis: 

A secret affair with your teenage celebrity crush? Yes, please!

Music journalist Cassy Evans believes her career is made when she snags an exclusive interview with rock singer Frankie Blade.

Once a superstar of the generation, Frankie has been a recluse since a freak motorcycle incident sent his career into a tailspin seven years ago. Now that he’s returned to claim back his crown, Cassy hopes to kill two birds with one stone—secure her magazine a top spot in the rankings and meet with the man of her adolescent dreams.

A dinner invitation isn’t what she expects to get out of this interview, but the chemistry between them is undeniable.

With paparazzi watching Frankie’s every move as the two jump into a stormy relationship, Cassy risks her career and her privacy—and possibly her heart—to be with the biggest rockstar on the planet. But is Frankie worth it? Is he the humble man she thinks he is or is he just that good at hiding his demons?

Final Serenade is the first installment in “The Encore” series. Cassy and Frankie’s story concludes in One Last Verse.

Final Serenade Review

Final Serenade by N.N. Britt

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cassy is a rock reporter who lands a coveted interview with her long-time music crush. Frankie is a rock star who dropped out of the music world after almost losing his life in an accident. The two can't fight their mutual attraction and embark on a secret relationship. Will Frankie's career comeback lead to an end of their relationship? Will secrets and lies tear them apart?

I love NN Britt's writing style. Writing rock stories is this author's wheelhouse. In real life, she's a music journalist and a photographer. Her writing is authentic and engaging. I can't wait to read One Last Verse (Encore Duet #2) when it releases on May 14th. What a cliffhanger!

Blurb:
When good goes bad in the latest installment of Laura Pavolv’s star-crossed lovers trilogy, you’ll want to be there every step of the way.

Life is sweet until it’s not…
I followed my dreams when I wanted to follow my heart.
I spent the summer touring with the band. Cruz Winslow is the love of my life and being with him 24/7 was amazing, until it came to an end.
I needed to go back to school while he finished up his commitment to Exiled.
But, that one decision threatened to tear us apart. And although I knew a long-distance
relationship would be challenging—the time change, classes, studying for exams
didn’t help.
Being away from one another was more difficult than I ever imagined.
There was no doubt in my mind he was the one for me, but was true love going to be enough?
Because I gave him my heart, and he promised me forever…

I’m living a dream that isn’t even mine…
As the lead singer of Exiled, I’ve become a household name, and everyone wants a piece of me.
I’m trying to maintain a relationship with my girlfriend—but the road was a cruel mistress and wouldn’t let go.
I’m chained to my band, chained to my fans, and chained to my family. And I don’t want any of it —all I want is More Jade.
After Jade leaves for school, I miss her like hell and backslide into my old ways.
It kills me because she’s the one person I don’t want to disappoint.
I love her so much, but deep down I know she deserves a hell of a lot better than me.
I know I need to set her free.
But I can’t let her go…
Because what if she doesn’t come back?

Review of More of You

More Of You by Laura Pavlov

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Omg, I binge read More of You by Laura Pavlov in one day. Addiction and family drama takes center stage as Cruz and Jade try and navigate love in the spotlight, while Exiled is on a world tour. Life on the road isn't easy when Jade goes back to school. Cruz turns to alcohol and drugs in order to numb his emotions. One night changes everything, and Cruz might find him self exiled from Jade's life. More of You pulled on my heartstrings with this emotion-packed addictive second installment in the A Love You More Rock Star Romance trilogy. I can't wait to see Cruz, and Jade will be singing a different tune in More of Us when it releases on 4/21

FROM THE FIRST VERSE

Life of Debauchery Duet

By M. Robinson

Release Date: March 24

Dear diary, Once upon a time… There was a girl with long golden hair who had the truest, bluest eyes that turned white when she cried. She lived in a kingdom far, far away in a tower made of stone, but her mind was made of glass that she kept sharp as knives. Where her memories hid behind her darkest doubts. Her deepest thoughts. Her diary became the only thing she could rely on. No one saw through her looking glass. No one cared. No one tried. Until the villain presented himself as the hero in her life. He took and took and took some more. With no regret. With no shame. With no apology. The page never turned. Their story didn’t end. Tomorrow never came. His life of debauchery was their journey to nowhere. She’d give anything to go back in time. To walk where she had walked. To see what she had seen. One step. One breath. One day at a time. Though in the end, “I love you” were just words. That destroyed us inside.

Review of From the First Verse

From the First Verse by M.  Robinson

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Journey Pierce was a sweet little girl who had known Cash since she was in diapers. Now she's all grown up and seeking out her friend that used to sing Johhny Cash songs to her. Cash McGraw is the lead singer of Life of Debauchery, one of the world's most popular bands. The group lives up to their name with their notorious bad-boy antics. All of the money, fame, sex, and drugs never seem to be enough to numb Cash from his painful past choices. Then he runs into Journey, and she is all grown up.

First Verse goes from past to present, integrating the perfect amount of background of Cash and Journey's history. This couple last appeared in Monica's Love Hurts Duet. This book is a total standalone, and you don't have to read the Love Hurts Duet to enjoy From the First Verse (Life of Debauchery #1). Read it anyhow because it's really good! First Verse reminds me of an emotion-packed love song. You will feel all the raw, unfiltered unpredictability of Journey and Cash's relationship unravel like an unchained melody. This book is sure to strike a chord in your heart.

About the Author:

Wall Street Journal & USA Bestselling Author M. Robinson loves to read. She favors anything that has angst, romance, triangles, cheating, love, and of course sex! She has been reading since the Babysitters Club and R.L. Stein. She was born in New Jersey but was raised in Tampa Fl. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in psychology, with two years left.

Review of The Truths We Told 

The Truths We Told by E.K. Blair

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“I knew I would never be enough to make him happy. No matter how hard I tried, I was constantly letting him down. I was a failure to him. I was a failure to myself.”

“Because it was how I knew he loved me.”

The Truths We Told by EK Blair is the second book in the Secrets and Truths Duet. Kate and Trent's story picks up where The Secrets We Held left off. Kate slowly starts to face the truth about her relationship with Caleb. She also discovers the truth about real love and self-worth. EK tackles some heavy subject matter with sensitivity on a long journey of self-discovery and recovery from abuse.

This story was so real and tragic. I think so many women in abusive relationships don’t want to tell the truth about their partner or make excuses for them. EK’s portrayal of this abused woman shed some light and depth into the psychological damage abuse causes. She also managed to show the beauty in love, self-love, and healing. I still want to know what happened to Caleb! I recommend reading this series in order. 

AUTHOR BIO 

E.K. Blair is a New York Times best-selling author. Her books range from thrillers to romance to YA, all of which shine a light on the inner workings of relationships through adversity. She resides in Oklahoma with her husband and two beautiful children. When not writing, you will most likely will find her sipping on a mug of overly-sweet coffee while watching reality television or the latest true crime documentary.
