Vol. 1 in Reluctant Heartbreakers & Sweet Troublemakers series. Heat Level: PG-13 (kissing, mild sensuality). ---. Alexandra is a carefree nineteen-year-old from Saint Petersburg, Russia until a fire destroys her family’s business and takes her parents with it. Now, instead of chasing her dreams of a singing career, she’s alone in the world, without a ruble to her name. Barely surviving, the last thing she expects is a job offer from her father’s friend with connections to the music industry in the United States. All she has to do is become the new bassist for Project Viper, a young, chart-smashing band. Alexandra’s never held a bass in her life, but she quickly discovers that impressing five hardcore rockers is loads trickier than learning a new instrument. Especially when it comes to Marshall, Project Viper’s striking frontman. An orphan from an early age, Marshall’s been tossed about in foster care, mocked, and ignored. Now that millions worship the very air he breathes, Marshall doesn’t skip a beat enjoying his hard-earned fame and his band family. And although he agreed to give the idea of a new band member a spin, he never agreed to someone who looks like she’ll snap from just lifting a bass, knows nothing about show business, and keeps secrets from the band. Her fresh grief and his outcast past make them a perfect match, but Marshall’s dead set on resisting his growing attraction to Alexandra and tossing her out of his brotherhood. Alexandra has only six months to prove she can rock it despite her inexperience, and while her future depends on securing a place with Project Viper, keeping her already fractured heart intact may prove to be the most impossible challenge yet. less

I expect her to scold me, but Fiona whispers back, her lips grazing my ear, “Be careful what you wish for. ”. ---. After six intense years, CJ Sanchez has finally hit the sweet spot in his music career. It’s riding the wave of Project Viper’s fame forever and ever on, baby. But when a severe case of artist block strikes right as the band starts their sold-out European tour and gears up to produce their next album—. His bandmates don’t need to know about that. Shhh. Besides, there’s Fiona, the band’s gorgeous assistant. Dragging her on spur-of-the-moment dashes through European capitals and coaxing out her smile is far more fun than dealing with whatever issues CJ has. Fiona may be running errands for Project Viper for a living, but as an aspiring comic book artist, she knows all too well how traumatic creative slumps can be. And although she’s built some solid defenses against CJ, when the unapologetic flirt reveals his crisis to her, half-whispered in the middle of the night… It’s impossible for Fiona to refuse to keep his artist block a secret. Pricey consequences may be hanging over their heads for keeping the band in the dark, but CJ’s breath-snatching smiles, playful winks, and unabashed flirting make it easy to forget about the possibility of a catastrophic fallout. Too easy. less
