BLURB:
Jaxson Duvall, bass player for the band Maiden Voyage wasn’t born into wealth or fame. He achieved it with hard work and a need to prove himself. To whom, well, that is the million-dollar question right there. When his foolish antics threaten to bankrupt him, it’s time for him to stop acting like a spoiled brat and grow the hell up before his band brothers find a new bassist.
Shephard “Shep” Newsome was the opposite. Thrust into the limelight at birth and cast out damn near the same way. When his indiscretions tarnished his family name, his father said no more. Humiliated, shamed, and shunned, he moved away to begin anew but trouble still seemed to find him. Tired of running, he puts down roots only to find himself right smack in the middle of it once again.
What happens when a Rockstar with more money than brains clashes with his neighbor who has a chip on his shoulder the size of Texas?You have a recipe for disaster… or rage-infused love.
Maiden Voyage series must be read in order as each book starts where the last one ended but is from another band members point of view:
1 – Ryder’s Guardian
2 – Derek’s Destiny
3 – Jaxson’s Nemesis
4 – Shadow’s Light
REVIEW:
Oh my goodness gracious! This series just keeps getting better and better!!! Goodness how I love all these boys! Be ready for some wild hi jinx in this one.
Jaxson “Jax” Duvall always seemed to be the free spirit of the band Maiden Voyage. He’s the one with the loving parents that have “adopted” all of the boys in the band as theirs. Jax is extremely good looking and doesn’t have to even try to have his bed warmed. I mean even Shawn, his guard and best friend, hook’s up with him when the need is there. No emotions attached. No, his emotions, in the form of revenge and anger, are saved for his nemesis. And his nemesis is his neighbor…his very sexy, gorgeous and annoying neighbor Shepherd Newsome! When a feuding prank goes horribly wrong in a blink of an eye (big surprise…NOT!!!) Jax re-evaluates all their bickering and pranks but can this feuding be stopped and a friendship be even possible?
I can’t get enough of all of TL’s gorgeous and talented Rock Stars! I re-read the first two books straight through and then jumped on Jax’s story. I love that she has all the boys so close and are a “family” that loves and supports each other. I will be the first one to admit that if you are one of her rock stars either you or someone you care about is probably going to wind up at the hospital!
I will say that I didn’t see the sexual dynamic between Shep and Jax coming and it was damn hot ❤️🔥. Jax always seemed so laid back and in control but with Shep you see his true self emerge even to himself. It was refreshing to watch. I also love Shep’s transformation. Between Mattise, whom I loved, and learning to trust Jax, not an easy thing for Shep to learn to do, you got to witness him emerge and fly like a beautiful butterfly.
One of the things I really enjoyed was Jax’s family dynamic. I loved that Jaxson knew who to go to when questioning himself and his thoughts. His parents are truly awesome. No wonder he, and all the band, love, trust and adore Tom and Kitty!
I will say I wasn’t sure how it would go with Jax and Shawn when Shep and Jax became a thing but was pleasantly relieved with the resolution even though it was a bit stressful for awhile. I really liked their friendship dynamic.
And I can’t wait to hear everyone’s reaction to the last chapter. Oh my was that embarrassingly great!
I strongly suggest that you read (if you haven’t already) The Social Sinners series, Rhone (Embrace the Fear – Road to Rocktoberfest) and the first two books in this series. These Rock Stars are deeply connected and come in and out of each other’s books all the times. It’s so great to get to reconnect with them all.
I can’t recommend this book enough. I loved it and can’t wait for Shadow’s story this fall. It’s going to be explosive I’m sure!
