I’m part of a multi-author series about rock stars – The Road to Rocktoberfest. It was such fun to write a story set in a world where other authors were providing their own spin on rock bands performing at a huge outdoor rock festival. I’ve been reading the books as they’ve been released (we’re at book 4 of 7 now) and love exploring the new bands, characters, and situations they find themselves in. And the happy endings, of course!
Meet Rafe and Parker in Wild Card
My contribution is Wild Card. It features HyperOctane, a band from Sydney who have made it to the top in Australia, and are looking for their big break in the US. Rafe is the lead singer and this has always been his dream. Parker is his opposite, fearful of the spotlight, and lacking in self-confidence. He’s sort of horrified to find himself becoming part of the band, albeit temporarily, especially as his hooking up with Rafe was meant to a one-time thing.
Wild Card has been getting some wonderful reviews, including this 4.5 star review from Jay V. here on Love Bytes.
Wild Card is a rock star romance – opposites attract, forced proximity, and chasing dreams. I hope you enjoy it.
Hitting the big time in Australia isn’t enough. Making it overseas, now that’s on a whole other level.
Rafe Moreno, lead singer of HyperOctane, is on the brink of achieving everything he’s set out to do before his thirtieth birthday. Ten years of hard work and focus is finally paying off. Not that he doesn’t enjoy the rock and roll lifestyle—adoration, parties, men. What’s not to like? Including a hot hook-up with his bandmate’s younger brother. But the most important thing is keeping his eye on the prize at any cost.
Parker Shaw is nothing like his outgoing, super-talented rock star brother, so finding himself on a plane heading to the other side of the world to play guitar with HyperOctane is insane. Who in their right mind would want an ordinary, skinny, red-haired analyst to perform with one of the top bands from Australia?
Rafe’s dream is the big time, not a relationship. The furthest thing from Parker’s mind is trusting his broken heart to anyone again. But what happens on the road, stays on the road, right? Rafe and Parker embark on the rock tour of a lifetime, a tour that will bring a lot more than they expected, because love is a wild card, not something you can plan for.
