Emma has always been obsessed with Ollie Mills of the southern rock band, Sunset Revival. She follows his every move on Twitter, likes all his posts on Instagram, and stalks his page on Facebook. So when there’s a contest to win a date with the sexy-as-sin, bad-boy rockstar, of course she enters.

It’s a one in a million chance.

Caleb Mills has always been unlucky in love. From the girl who broke his heart, to every one-night stand in between, the lead singer of Sunset Revival barely feels anything anymore. He’s focused on his music and nothing more. Until he sees Emma, in a blue dress, on a hot night in Nashville. She’s meant to be his brother’s date, but the moment his eyes connect with hers he wants this beautiful girl all for himself.

Caleb knows, it will only take Ollie a minute to screw things up. And he’ll be there waiting to win this girl’s heart the moment he does. But can any girl, ever, really trust a rockstar?

BOOK REVIEW: Dickslip by Gwyn McNamee

3 Stars

Rafe Boswell has an oopsy moment while on the basketball court for a charity game. And while the new CEO of the network Andy Mason didn’t catch the live sporting event, she makes sure to see the play by plays.

Given the premise and the characters, this had a lot of potential and it began with promise, but as it played out, it was a letdown.

For one, I was disappointed with the fact that while it starts out with a smart and accomplished non-virginal heroine in a role of power (something that’s hard to come by in the romance genre) she quickly makes ridiculous mistakes.

" Facepalm. I drop my face into my hand and sigh. No. Double facepalm. This calls for two.
She might have been talking about him but that’s exactly how I felt when it was obvious that Andy was going to let her libido ruin her career and reputation. Now had there actually been a build-up, weeks or months of them fighting their attraction where the reader could feel their sexual tension as they got to know each other, then I might have been able to root for her to take a chance…on love. But one of the issues this story suffers from is typical with lots of short books—lack of development. The attraction is solely insta-lust.
What did I have with Rafe? Attraction…yes. Lust…definitely. But was there more there?
And then there’s Rafe. A paleontologist turned educational children’s television host, he should have been a fresh catch in the romance market’s tired sea of billionaires, rock stars, and motorcycle men. Not to mention there should have been some real ovary melting scenes there with his career. But nope, there was no swoon factor. The dude had no balls (no pun intended). The Munro thing was predictable, and later it made Rafe look like a real chump, not a sweet guy. In fact, Rafe lost major points with me over the whole “how he left things” debacle.

Readers looking for some chasing and wooing on the hero’s part will want to pass on this one.

Told via Andy and Rafe’s alternating first person POV, the chapters are missing name headings and the story ends at 82%. On a positive note, it is lighthearted and safe.

BOOK REVIEW: Let's Get Textual by Teagan Hunter


4 Stars

A wrong number connects Delia Devlin, 21, and Zach Hastings, 25, and they begin a texting correspondence.

It’s a bit slow burn. I’ll admit some of their earlier texts lacked a punch, and thus dragged in parts until they actually meet up and start dating.
“I want to know if he kisses the way he talks—sweet with just a hint of dirty.”
Then it picks up, and I started turning pages to find out what would happen next. Marshmallow was a unique spin to the tale.

I especially liked that Zack was mostly a regular guy, not a celebrity nor thankfully not a manwhore.  He had some cute moments and comments.
“‘You can’t be like, ‘Boner be gone!’ and it just goes away. That’s not how dicks work—they don’t deflate on command.’”
Another bonus was the absence of OW. In fact, it’s mostly low angst so it makes for a relaxing read when you need to de-stress. I was a bit torn on the OM presence with Caleb. He never created any drama and seemed like a good guy too. But I sorta though it should have been Zack who came to Delia’s “rescue” in the later half. Given his future pairing in the next book with her roommate, I wish Caleb would have just been a friend rather than boyfriend. Zack’s brother’s book (#4) is a hell no for me though. That jerk doesn’t deserve an HEA.
