The Mighty Storm (The Storm, #1)

by Samantha Towle

Justine Eyre (Narrator)

A rock-and-roll love triangle…a music journalist’s story of a lifetime…the bad boy front man who broke her heart.

Tru Bennett was just fourteen years old when her best friend and first love, Jake Wethers, moved from England to America and left her brokenhearted. Now twelve years later, Jake is the world’s biggest rock star, lead singer of The Mighty Storm and every woman’s bad-boy fantasy. Every woman, that is, except Tru.

A successful music journalist, Tru knows better than to mix business with pleasure. But then she receives the assignment of a lifetime: interview Jake before his band launches its highly anticipated world tour. Tru vows to keep the meeting strictly professional—but nothing can prepare her for the sparks that fly the moment their eyes meet again.

Now Jake wants Tru to join the band on tour, offering her a behind-the-scenes exclusive that any journalist would kill for. There’s just one problem: Tru’s boyfriend, Will. Can their relationship withstand Tru hitting the road with rock and roll’s most notorious womanizer? Or will she risk it all for a second chance with the one who got away?

Ok. Aside from some small issues I had with this one I really liked/loved it. I'm not a huge fan of first person narration but I was able to get over it for this one. I was sucked in to this one BIG TIME. I got about 50% in and was determined to finish it that night. At 54% I thought I was going to throw up and cry. This one is intense....crying and vomiting were possible several times.
There is no question that Jake and Tru were meant to be, it was just a matter of getting through the obstacles that were thrown in the way. I do wish there was an epilogue and I thoroughly enjoyed Jake's point of view at the end. I do think that the reader could have benefited from Jake's point of view throughout the book.
