I’m a rocker with the eyes of the world on me. Waiting for my triumph or my downfall…just waiting. Most of my life is in my hands. My destiny? That’s another story. My destiny isn’t as debt free.
My band, Phoenix Rising, arrives in Houston to cut a new album. Before we perform our first concert in the city and I choose my groupies of the night, I’m thrust into debauchery. Sleeping with a gorgeous woman twenty years older than me has its perks, especially when her husband orchestrated the encounter and eagerly watches. To me, performing is performing. If a man wants to share his wife, who am I to stop him?
Unfortunately for me, I don’t make a clean getaway as I leave the McCall mansion. Georgie, their sixteen-year-old daughter, is in the midst of her own intrigue, sneaking home in the middle of the night after an evening of drugs and sex with her older brother’s best friend. In her, I see me. She’s lost and drifting. Her hedonistic parents insist she’s old enough to make her own decisions. Instead of time and love, they give her money and things.
I’m a twenty-five-year old international superstar and I know better. I’m cocky and arrogant. I know it so I own it. Somehow, I’ve always bested the fates. I have all to lose—my reputation, my career, and my freedom. Her mother’s jealousy forces my hand and I take Georgie on the tour.
This is our story and our secret relationship and the destruction of my life. You know the adage about secrets? Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead. Wise words from a wise man. If only I had listened. Secrets have a way of revealing themselves in the harshest way.
This is story about the unusual meeting of reformed recovering rocker bad boy Sloane Mason, lead singer of the group Phoenix Rising, and Georgie McCall, a 16 year old foul-mouthed, unloved druggie. They have 2 strange meetings in 2 consecutive days, a party where she is so wasted she can barely stand/walk and the next night while he is sneaking out of her parent's house and she is sneaking in late at night again wasted( he was hired by Georgie's father to have sex with the mother, while he watched). She is a super fan and feels she loves him,he feels overprotective of her, because she is wreckless and out of control, her parents are too self-absorbed/self- involved to care. He brokers a deal to take her on tour with him as her protector,parent,and rule maker and to insure she gets educated- schooling/tudor.They have more than chemistry but she is underage and he tries to keep hands off, she acts out to manipulate him to put hands on. CONTROL!!! He finds out the only way to control her is to have some form of sex with her, leading to her giving him her virginity and having sex multiple times unprotected,( condoms were never in reach?) He knew if she got pregnant his life, career would all be over and jail would be in his future!! Worse than jail, is not being with, seeing her and caring for her while she is with his child! There is more back story and details within the story so read the book to get the rest!!! I enjoyed this book it was well written and the characters were well developed!! The author takes you on an emotional roller coaster throughout this book. I was given an ARC for an honest review from DRC's Review Team, Thank You Drue. Amazon release date March 10th.
