Kyle and I…we always seemed inevitable.
After getting kicked out of my house at sixteen, my boyfriend Kyle’s family took me in. And the two of us, with his brother at the helm and two other friends, formed Intent to Murder, a hard rock band with dreams of a bright future. We play local bars and gain a small following but never get off the ground.
When one of our band members dies of an overdose, everything changes.
I’ve been ignoring the fact that Kyle and I aren’t yin and yang, meant to complement and fulfill each other; we’re oil and water, destined to never mix. Together, we’re volatile.
So when we finally recruit Wolf, an older man who plays guitar, to replace our deceased friend, the band starts to heal. We become better than before.
Meanwhile, I figure out Kyle’s not right for me.
That doesn’t mean Wolf is, either…but he seems to get me, to understand what makes me tick.
And I find myself dreaming about his chiseled body. Thinking about him all the time. Finding ways to share stolen moments with him.
It doesn’t matter that he’s probably not the right guy, either.
And when we finally kiss, he tells me he’s too old for me. He’s not boyfriend material. He wouldn’t treat me right.
But I don’t believe him.
Maybe I should.
Because I might have to make a choice between the fame I want and the love I think I need…because I probably don’t deserve to have either.
Review by Twinsie Angie
Verses book 1 of Rocky Mountain Rockstars by Jade C. Jamison
I was given this book by the author for an honest review.
I love the rockstar worlds Jade writes. Her Bullet series is one of my favorites of all time. When she sent the ARC for this book, the blurb made my heartbeat. I mean it sounded like a great toxic love story for sure. Toxic for sure it was….sigh a good old rip your heart out story. LOL
Hayley and Kyle….man these two. They were high school sweethearts who grew up, used drugs together, and loved but they loved in a not so great way. She was kinda terrible and he was just the same. When the story starts out, we see the toxic relationship from the jump. The couple seem to be together just because they have always been together and is expected to be together??? Anywho, they are also dealing with the loss of the leader of their band. They are left with 2 others struggling to figure out what to do. Hayley starts to chat with the bartender and *Gasp* does he flirt with her??? As time moves on and he joins the band, GASP he is still flirting with the newly SINGLE Hayley.
Wolf/Miles is a good guy. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. He says he isn’t a but he sure the crap is as far as I was concerned. He was everything Hayley needed. She was everything he needed too. The age gap was his “push” away but once they got all the cards on the table, It was GO TIME!!!
I really enjoyed the couple. He stood up for her LOTS of time and let her see she is worth more then she gives herself credit for. He also helps her see things for what they are and to accept that sometimes it just is what it is. Hayley showed Miles that not all women are like his past relationships and she is the genuine person he has always claimed her to be.
THEN right when I couldn’t love him anymore, Wolf was an asshat and then Kyle starts to sniff around. I was like hella no. I am with my girl Hayle and gonna stay single and heart guarded forever…..and then Wolf is back…and again I am swooning because damn it Miles I love you!!!!
I cannot wait for the next book….best friends sister…oooof Pedro is gonna have some issues!!
