Critic reviews

"[Fans] will love the characters and enjoy their scorching love scenes and passionate fights." ( Romantic Times)

Intense once again! Rock on!

What made the experience of listening to Rock Hard the most enjoyable?

I loved the rock star story line with the fascinating characters introduced through out the series. It incorporated intense sex with a decent story line.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rock Hard?

Hmmm.... this would give to much away. The entire romance between the lead characters is eye opening and intense!

Have you listened to any of Justine O. Keef’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

She did a fantastic job with this book. Her voice is perfect for Sed, raspy and deep! Justine was able to differentiate between all the characters flawlessly.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes and no. Considering its intensity, I needed breaks to regroup and continue. However, the story line made me want to continue.

OMG! Amazing!

Another great story by Olivia Cunning!!! She is fast becoming one of my most favorite authors. Love the rock band members and how each book is specifically about one of the band members. Loved it!!!

Enjoyable book and series

I was looking forward to this book and was not totally disappointed. Throughout the book I wanted th shake the main love interests but the ongoing story of the other characters kept me listening. Not as good as the 1st book in the series.

Rock Hard A Very Steamy Romance

Backstage Pass: Sinners on Tour was such a good book, and I was really looking forward to this one. And it didn't disappoint, but I never really connected with Sed or Jessica, which is what kept me from giving it 5 stars. Brian Sinclair and Myrna (whose relationship gets continued...yeah!) were such good characters and a sweet but hot couple.

When I heard that Sed was next, I wasn't sure if I would be as interested in Rock Hard. He's a little hard to take in the first novel, but once we get in his head he does redeem himself. However, he continues to be overbearing, impulsive, and doesn't really think about the consequences. Jessica, for being a law student, didn't really think about what it would mean to date a lead singer of a popular rock band and its implications on her own ambitions.

However, it was well written, took only three days to get through, and the sex scenes were explosive. And now that Sed is done, we can focus on Jace, Eric, and Trey, who I think are all more compelling characters than Sed. Jace and his "preferences" should make for a very interesting next edition...can't wait!

Sex drugs & rock n roll but oh soooo much more

If you've listened to book 1 then you know what's contained within these Sinners on Tour books about the members of a rock band. There's fellowship, romance, hot n heavy sexy love scenes, interesting likeable characters, humour, passion and well written heart wrenching plots that are each an addictive listen.

This one is about heartthrob lead singer Sed who stumbles across his ex fiancee and true love Jessica who's working as an erotic dancer in a Club in Las Vegas and the result are explosive. Sed, a tortured, damaged but very likeable and drool-worthy character (by us girlies anyway) wants to change and is determined to win her back so tries everything (all say ahhhhh) but Jessica had her heart broken by him so has other plans. I tried but failed to like her character in the beginning and, as a result, I just couldn't empathize with her (but stick with her) as I eventually warmed to her much later in the story.

I love romance books and feel sex scenes can easily have their places within them but I did find there was a bit of over-indulgence and gratuitous scenes which became just plain boring.

Worth a credit? Yes absolutely and I'm counting the days until book 3 Double Time (which is Trey's turn for love) is added to Audible and then Hot Ticket (Eric's story) which is released in February.

Great book

Who was your favorite character and why?

I love Sedric, he is the ideal rock star, that we can all fall for.

Which scene was your favorite?

The Golden Gate Bridge scene, dreams, dreams, dreams.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Love, Sex and Rock 'n Roll

Amazing and Toe curling

The second book does not disappoint. The author has a very creative and imaginative mind for writing a variety of steamy scenes so you don't feel like it is just like the first book. All the characters appear back in this book and although the focus is mainly on one couple, she manages to hook you into loving all the guys. Each band member is unique and has a certain fetish. I think that this series is awesome and I could not stop listening. You have to be ok with lots of sex but don't worry there is still a plot and it keeps you interested. The narrator does a great job of playing all the male roles and keeping her voice unique to each character. I would highly recommend this series and I will be looking at other books by Olivia Cunning in the future:) Spend the credit you will not be disappointed.

Omg 😲

Sex,sex,sex story line wasn’t to terribly bad. Talk about a women and man with super libido.

Well written, good narration

This would be a pretty good book with full stars if there wasn't so much sex. In my opinion Romance, trouble , sex and sometimes more sex is a good recipe for romance novels but this one was sex, sex with a little story then sex , sex, sex with a little story. The sex became very dull no matter what they did. This book could have used a lot more story.

Aside from that, the narration was good.

BOOK 2 JUST AS GOOD AS BOOK 1 HOT HOT HOT !!!!!!

Would you listen to Rock Hard again? Why?

YES YES YES !!!!!!GREAT STORY !!!! GOOD CHARACTERS !!!!!! I LOVE THIS SERIES
