Anyone who has read my reviews knows that I am a sucker for a rock star.


I had previously read the first book in this series, Three Nights With A Rock Star, so I was happy to receive the second book in this series, One Kiss With A Rock Star

Although this is the second in the series, there is enough back story that you could read this as a standalone and not feel that you are missing too much.

We first met Krist in the first book, where he was quite heavily interweaved into the the story of Lock and Hailey. And I have to tell you, I always liked Krist more than Lock. There was something about him that just got to me.

And I was not disappointed with Krist's story - at all!

In the aftermath of what happened in the first book (which you will find out quite early on in the piece if you don't read it), Krist is at a bit of a loose end. Enter Madeline Fox, pop goddess extraordinaire and seemingly the answer to all his PR nightmares - but is she?

I loved the chemistry between Krist and Maddy - even when he couldn't stand her there was more behind the dislike than meets the eye. The air around these two is combustible, just waiting for that spark to set it all alight.

And when it start- man oh man is it hot hot HOT!! Seriously hot. Melt the paint off the walls as you are a fly on it hot!!

I hated the way the PR machine manipulated both Krist and Maddy, but especially Krist. My heart broke for him over and over as things happened that were out of his hands. And all the while I was just hoping that this pair would get their act together and realise this wasn't all there was to them.

I loved the banter between Maddy and Krist - even when they were sniping at each other with meanness, there was still affection behind it all.

Do they get there HEA? Will the media tear them apart? Will their careers make it through this minefield?

Uh uh, for that you are going to read for yourself.

I love that we got more more of Krist's bandmates Lock and Moe, and am really looking forward to Moe's story - it is going to be one heck of a ride we are taken on with him!!

So if you are after a book about sexy rockstars, not so pure pop stars and a love that no one expects - give One Kiss With a Rock Star a try.
