Publisher Description
Escape into this friends-to-lovers romance that reviewers are calling "hot, humorous, and honest" and "fresh" and "a chocolate high."
Jera McKnight loves music, swoons for hot guys, but sucks at sex. Jacob Tate is her perfect storm: a pun-loving nude model with a heart as big as his record collection.
When a newspaper-delivery accident lands him in her living room, he's almost tempting enough to make her forget she's never been enough for a man—in bed or out of it. Sure, he laughs at her obscure jokes, and he'll even accept a PG-rating if it means he gets time with her, but he's also hiding something. And it has everything to do with the off-limits room in his apartment.
Jera pours all her confusion and longing into her drum kit, which pays off when her band lands the record deal of their dreams. Except just like Jacob, it might be too good to come without a catch.
She doesn't know if her music is good enough to attract a better contract, or if she's enough to tempt a man like Jacob to give up his secrets—even if they could fix her problems between the sheets. But if this rocker girl is too afraid to bet on herself, she might just end up playing to an empty house.

Customer Reviews
Rock and Soul
There are romances, and then there are stories that carry so much love that they make the rest of the genre look shallow and fake.
Jacob and Jera feel absolutely real. Their emotional hang ups, longing, dreams, exhaustion, and joy leap off the page. Reading this book is like living the twists and turns of their journey with them. All the characters are genuinely witty, creative, flawed human beings that you wish you actually knew.
The only thing that took me out of the story for a microsecond was a mention of Netflix DVD rentals (snort). I inhaled the book in a single evening without pausing, then immediately purchased the rest for the series.
