Blurb:
Avery Dare
lives a quiet life in Miami as an online fashion/makeup video blogger. She has
good friends, a close, large family and if her love life is lacking, she likes
it that way. But when she receives an invitation to one of her ex's concerts
along with an invitation to meet him back stage, she decides to take the
risk... and comes face to face with the reality of his rock star lifestyle -
the press, the crowds, and the half-naked groupies.
At eighteen,
Grey Kingston left everything he knew and loved behind to seek fame and fortune
as a rock star, and he found it as the lead guitarist and singer for the band,
Tangled Royal. Fans adore him, women throw themselves at him, and he can afford
everything he couldn't growing up. Yet at the height of his career, he's ready
to walk away and return home to a simpler life... and the woman he left behind,
if he can convince her to give him another chance.
Except
moving on isn't as easy as Grey would like. When Avery is threatened by a
stalker, it becomes evident Grey's fans not only don't want him to retire, they
don't want Avery in his life either. And Avery isn't sure she wants the
pressures that are part of Grey's life... but she doesn't want to lose him
again, either. Can their recently renewed love survive the fallout?

Excerpt:
Sweat poured off Grey Kingston’s body, and his heart beat a too-rapid rhythm, the high and adrenaline rush from his performance still pulsing through his veins as he walked into the lounge backstage. He pulled off his soaked shirt and tossed it onto the floor, grateful for the stocked room and waiting pile of towels. He grabbed one and dried his face and hair, deliberately trying to slow his breathing.
Sweat poured off Grey Kingston’s body, and his heart beat a too-rapid rhythm, the high and adrenaline rush from his performance still pulsing through his veins as he walked into the lounge backstage. He pulled off his soaked shirt and tossed it onto the floor, grateful for the stocked room and waiting pile of towels. He grabbed one and dried his face and hair, deliberately trying to slow his breathing.
The sound of
Tangled Royal fans stomping their feet and demanding an encore echoed through
the walls, but the band had performed their final set. Even as his pulse still
soared.
He glanced
toward the door. “Did she pick up the ticket?” Grey asked Simon Colson, their
manager, who was busy texting on his phone.
“What? Who?”
Simon, ever the well-dressed Brit, shoved his phone into his trouser pocket. No
jeans for him. “Good show,” he said to Grey and the rest of the band, ignoring
Grey’s question.
Lola Corbin,
their lead singer and Grey’s best friend, was still bouncing in her heels, not
yet coming down from their shared high either. “We did rock it,” she said,
tossing her dark hair over her shoulder.
Milo Davis,
their bassist, grunted something and fell into a chair in the corner. Grey
narrowed his gaze. Milo barely had the energy for a full concert these days,
and that worried him.
But right
now Grey had bigger concerns and turned to Simon. “I asked you if Avery Dare
picked up the VIP tickets I told you to leave at the box office.”
Simon
shrugged. “I couldn’t tell you.”
Grey scowled
at his manager’s I don’t give a shit tone. More and more lately, Simon’s lack
of consideration about what the band members wanted grated on Grey’s nerves.
Lola might be considering using him for her solo career, but anything Grey did
going forward wouldn’t be with the man.
At least
he’d indicated he had left the tickets. He’d be out of a job if he screwed with
Grey on this. “Fucking find out.”
“What’s so
special about this piece of ass?” Simon barely got the words out because Grey
grabbed him by his collared shirt and pinned him up against the wall.
“Talk about
her like that again and you’re done.”
“Whoa.” Lola
put her petite body between them, pushing Grey away from their manager.
“Everyone breathe,” she muttered. “You. Go take a walk and calm down before
your company shows up,” she ordered Grey.
He stormed off,
missing whatever lecture she gave to Simon next.
Though the
man had done his job well, helping maneuver Tangled Royal to the elusive top of
the charts, he cared about the bottom line and not much else. Especially not
the fact that Tangled Royal was more than a band, people with real feelings,
issues, and lives. No wonder Simon didn’t believe how serious both Grey and
Lola were about changing their futures.
Danny Bills,
their drummer, already had a wife and two daughters who lived in L.A. He was
ready for home time, and everyone knew it. Milo was another story. If he didn’t
stop the drugs, he wouldn’t have a future.
As for Grey,
he hoped for more than the travel and fame that had been so important to him
way back when. He hoped for her.
His eyes
flickered to the door. No sign of Avery. He tipped his head back, wondering if
she’d come backstage or ignore the invitation … and him. His stomach
gripped painfully at the thought of not seeing her again. She was the one
person who not only understood the loner musician he’d been as a teen but who’d
grounded him when he’d threatened to spiral. With her soft voice, that thick
mane of dark hair, and those lavender-like eyes, she’d burrowed someplace deep
inside him. Still, she hadn’t been enough to hold him, not when fame, fortune,
and the need to be something more lived within him.
But it was
Avery whose face he saw in the nameless women he’d fucked over the years. Avery
whose belief in him kept him going when times were hard. Funny how that worked.
He wondered if she’d thought of him over the years and if she was as hyped up
about possibly seeing him again now.
