Rock Bottom

Fantastic

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

In this book we are introduced to the band Onyx Knights and that includes Kingston, Zeke, Tommy, Carter and Kellan and their tour manager Ross and Manager Aurora.

In this book we also get to see some of other rock bands that the author has written about like Tyler and Lexi and Casey is also mentioned.

This book is told in two parts. The first 12 chapters of this book take place about 14 months before and we get to know the band and our main female lead, Presley and Zeke.

The second part of the book takes place a year later and we get to see how Presley has struggled and we get to meet the important people in her life.

As the second part begins I ABHOR and HATE Zeke so very much. But I HATE Aurora just as much. In this part of the story we find out that Zeke and Aurora have been sleeping together casually over the years they have known each other and in the last few months often. In fact Aurora and Zeke are sharing hotels rooms on the road when Zeke gets news about Presley. At that point he stops sleeping with her but the fact that they have been having sex and sharing rooms for months to me seems very intimate and so gross. She is older than Zeke and someone even says she is as old as his mother. We never get an age on her, but we know Zeke is 29. So she is for sure older than 29. I do want to say there is no cheating in this book but the fact that they are sharing hotel rooms on the road was an intimacy I hated, and it made me hate Zeke especially after we see how he treated Presley in the first part of the book.

In this part of the book Presley is doing really awfully and she HATES Zeke and I loved that when they meet again she HATES him so much. I totally cheered for her not accepting his little too late apology. I love that he knows that she HATES him and he has a lot to atone for. I wanted her to hate him some more and maybe date another guy and torture him more. But the author doesn't go there and I had an issue with that because he needed to suffer more.

But she lets her anger go and when she needs him, he is there for no question, which made me hate him a little less. At this point we start to see a new Zeke. The HOT rock star but also the good guy and that's who Presley and I fall for.

This book was a romantic story and by the end of the book I started to like Zeke again and maybe forgive him. This book also deals with several serious issues that I feel should have warnings. They are drug use, overdosing, suicide, rehab and also heart attacks.
