I enjoyed this, but I would have enjoyed it much more if the whole series hadn't been a total rip off of Nalini Singh's 'Rock Kiss' series (first book published 2 years before Idol). World famous rock band made up of four guys from school, plus a manager. Similar angst issues, media troubles, band member struggling with suicide/addiction, and the heroes in book 2 even have the same first name for goodness same.

Tempted to give it only 1 star for stealing, but instead knocking 1 point off from 4 stars to 3. It also needs a good proofread - lots of errors.

Please go and read and pay for Nalini Singh's books if you like this - she did it first.

P.S. Nalini Singh's suit-wearing, rugby-playing Kiwi Gabriel is also a lot hotter than this suit-wearing, stiff British Gabriel IMHO :)
