**Happy Release Day**
My Rating: Date (4 stars)
Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance
Steam Level: Super Hot!
Rock With Me was my first Kristen Proby book but it won’t be
my last! Rock With Me is a stand alone but I think reading the previous books
in the series would have given a little more background and insight into some
of the supporting characters and helped me enjoy the family scenes a little
more, but again it is not necessary. I really enjoyed this story all on its
own!
Samantha has been living in the shadow of her famous brother
her entire life. She has had horrible experiences with tabloids and famous
people. Privacy and independence are the things she values most and she has
absolutely no intention of putting herself anywhere near the limelight again.
But then she meets Leo, a rockstar….
Leo is a tattooed and pierced sex on a stick. He is also the
lead singer of the famous rock band, Nash, and is taking a break from
preforming to spend time with his sister, Meg, in Seattle. Since he’s on a
break we don’t really see his rock star status come through until the end of
the book, through most of it he seems to live a fairly normal life. He has had
a rough upbringing that he is still trying to come to terms with.
Meet Leo and Sam (pic taken from the author’s website):
The relationship between Sam and Leo starts out rocky,
intense, and scorching hot and never lets up! There is A LOT of sex and it was
HOT sex, but I felt like there wasn’t a whole lot of variety and I was reading
the same scene over and over again, just in a different place or time. I loved
the banter between the two; it had my cracking up at times.
“I’ll take you hard, and soft, and every way in between.” He grips my
face in his hands and looks down at me, his nose touching mine. “I’m going to
fuck the shit out of you.”
I do wish there had been a little more drama and angst. Yes it’s
there, but it was resolved a little bit too easily for me. And there was the
small issue of Leo having nightmares (because of his past) and then it was
never brought up again or resolved. Their relationship develops fast and is
intensely beautiful.
“I call you sunshine,” he whispers and brushes his knuckles down my
face, “because when you smile, you light me up inside.”
There is a HEA with a sweet epilogue, plus Kristen Proby has
assured us that we will get to see these characters again as she finishes out
her With Me In Seattle Series (see reading order below). I can’t wait to catch
up on the 3 books I missed before this one.
