Publisher's summary

I've always been the guy who plays the field. I like variety and my career ensures that I can have my pick of women.

Until her...

I've always been the girl who wants more. I want the white picket fence, the two-point-five kids and the dog. That's what all little girls grow up dreaming about.

Until him...

Why is it that she's all I can see? I no longer want the variety instead all I want is her. I won't stop until she believes that she's mine.

I assure you...

He's not the kind of guy I usually date. He's cocky and famous, and that hair. He says I'm what he wants, but I know his type. He likes to play the field. Only with me he's different.

He's assured.

Critic reviews

"Sweet, funny, and at times heartbreaking…. I really enjoyed both Cole and Stacy and being able to read the story from both points of view only made it that much more enjoyable." (Reviews From the Heart)

Love this series

Cole is Stacy’s long haired rock and roll man with a sweet side that emerges as they fall for each other.

BEAUTIFUL LOVE

This is one of the best books that showcases that strong bond kind of love. I enjoyed the parts that included the concert scenes too. Narrators were spot on, the drama not gut-wrenching, the HEA sheer perfection. Another 5/5 from Kaylee Ryan.

Good

I've read many of Kaylee Ryan's books and I love the idea of a deep love that makes a man (and woman) only see the other person in their partnership. It's romantic and beautiful and this is something that Kaylee Ryan does well. This series, from the 2.5 books I've listened to, really highlight this unbreakable love.

I wish that the women were a little more "assured" though. It feels like they all feel "lesser" because these guys are rock stars. I love when the women gives as good as she gets and in these books, the women feels weaker. I'm in the middle of the next book and I'm seeing this theme, which is grating, perhaps because i'm binging on this series. It is awesome that the men, Cole in this case, are so in love with the women, Stacy in this book. I just wish that the women could be more open to their worth in the relationships.

Nelson Hobbs is great in the audiobook. Jillian Macie can improve in her male voice but overall, she's good. I feel like she has improved from the first book in the series. Overall, this book was a good read but my annoyance may be fed by the fact that the next book features a woman who is even less confident than Stacy in this book.

all 4 books

I love the covers of all the books just hope all there girls was with them on the cover.
I really love your books Kaylee
I really hope one day you will consider in making a movie/movies on this books

NA Rockstar Romance Cole & Stacy

Cole was one of the bars resident bad boys. When he wanted someone he went for it. But there was something different about Stacy. She was his something more. Stacy knew from the beginning that Cole wanted to have her in his bed. She knew what his life was like. She knew his reputation. She did not want to be a notch on his bed.

Cole had to show Stacy that he was different. She was different. They were different together. She was like family. And for Cole she became so much more.

Nelson and Jillian delivered again with clear crisp familiar voice of Stacy and Cole. The Audi was smooth and clear.

Sweet and romantic rock 'n roll!

I enjoy stories like this one because they have a lot of sweetness to them. The hero is lead guitarist for a famous rock band, Soul Seranade. The heroine is the best friend of the lead singer's wife and she gets drawn into working for the band when her friends gets pregnant and needs to cut back on work. Now the hero is quite the ladies man, who thinks having quantity and variety of women beats a committed relationship. However, he's had his eye on getting the heroine into bed with him for quite a while. When they go out on tour traveling with the band, they get closer and he starts to want a real relationship and she starts to fall in love. There's a scumbag that causes problems, but I love the very happy ending. Narration was very well performed too!

Assured

I enjoyed this story. It was sweet, cute, and entertaining; with a little bit of drama. Nelson Hobbs and Jillian Macie are amazing narrators.

Loved it!

Super sweet! Loved Cole & Stacy. I love how Kacen’s relationship with Logan really changed everyone’s aspect on life. My heart broke for Stacy at towards then end when she felt she couldn’t lean on Cole. When Cole finds out what truly happened you see how he really feels for Stacy.

With the narrators being the same as Emphatic it took me sometime to get use to the story not being Kacen and Logan. I think that was more because I listened to them back to back. They did an amazing job regardless.

Sweet

It was a great performance by Nelson Hobbs and Jillian Macie, I love this duo.

Cole and Stacy.

Cole a former playboy who's really attracted by Stacy, Logan's best friend. He don't want to hurt her but at the same time he want to be with her, but he's not the settle down kind of guy.
Stacy want a realationship, she wants the same thing Logan have, but is Cole ready for her?
I loved this story and the suspens, even if there was just a bit of it.
I recommend it.

Boring

This book was painfully boring and predictable. Both the male and female voices were irritating for me. I listened to the whole book in fast speed to make it to the end. Just say no.
