When family problems push Riley Middleton into giving up a percussion scholarship in another state and attending college from home, her friends push her to try out for a local rock band. Of course, Riley makes the band. She rules at the drums.
Riley soon finds out rock bands have a different dynamic than marching bands, especially when each of her male band mates has a major ego and is a major player. Two of them relentlessly flirt with her. The other—a dark, sexy rock god she can’t help being attracted to— is a total jerk and pushes her to quit. She becomes determined to ignore his rudeness and his hotness. Even if she was interested in jerks, a hook up would probably get her booted out of the ego-ridden band, and playing keeps her sane. Behind the drums, the world and its troubles evaporate.
If she wants to stay in the band, Riley needs to ignore the growing sparks between her and her band enemy. But as she gets to know the man behind the stage persona, ignoring him proves to be more difficult than flowing through a time sig shift.

This review contains some spoilers3.5/5 starsAfter a night of sleep I just can't rate it any higher. I hate it when a story starts out very promising and then it just kind of fizzles out into nothing. I'm disappointed by this book. It starts out with Riley. She tries out for a band, is - suprise sup...
Fun book with a side of serious. I loved the characters and Romeo... swoon!!! Review to follow soon.
While I liked the premise of this book and overall I thought it not only flowed well and was believable, I still had some issues with it. Some of the supportive characters (Marcus and Chloe) started off strong but then seemed to fade into the background as Riley's interest in Romeo grew. This could ...
This sub-genre refuses to set me free, lol!
