I've gotten really bad at marking books when I start them!!!
Anyway, I read the first book in this series years ago and I have no idea why I took so long to read the second. I enjoyed it, a lot, though I think I liked the first one more.
What worked:
- the characters. I love Jess and Zed as a couple and on their own. Theyre both very strong and independent. And, even though Zed can piss you off because he is so pushy, he has good intentions and he does learn (even if it's slowly).
- the band dynamic. I don't read many band books - since music isn't really my thing (gasp! I know... Lol) but I do love the band dynamic. They're like a family - they annoy each other and they love each other. It's great.
- Jessica's struggle to get people to take her seriously because she's sexy. It's not something I can relate too (hahaha) but I can imagine it's rough. She's smart and it's hard for her to just be slut shamed all the time. I love where things are going for her by the end of the book.
Could've been better:
- the sex was too much. I know, I read erotica and then complain about the sex? The thing is, I like it to be sexy - which it was - but not take over. Sometimes it just took over in this book. And it was too much of the same - I'm sure it's hard to keep it interesting as a writer, but then, just skip some of it, we don't need so much. Personally. There were some great story lines that could have taken more time, instead of the sex.
But yeah, I liked it and will read more. The narration is great and I'm glad I have this series on audio.
