Rise

Rock God, Book 1

De: Cassandra Robbins

Narrado por: Sarah Puckett, Troy Duran

I know what I want. So when opportunity knocked, I took it. I grabbed my shot, willing to do anything to make it happen. From the beginning, I knew I was destined to be with the six-foot-four, bourbon-eyed Rock God. Only back in the early days, he wasn’t a god.

Rhys Granger was my brother’s friend, the boy next door who wrote verses and played his guitar in our garage. He was talented. Exciting. Damaged. The kind of guy who made all the girls cry…. Except for me. I thought I was special. Turns out I’m not. And now…I despise him.

He’s the lead singer of the Stuffed Muffins, one of the biggest bands in the world, with dark hair, full lips, and a body to die for. Unfortunately, he’s a dick. Not that I care anymore. I have my own career. I’m successful in my own right.

So when offered another once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I turn it down. But the universe has other plans, and I’m forced back into the savagely glamorous world of rock ‘n’ roll. Thrust into battling his seductive smile, his dangerous kisses, and my own addictive needs.

He might be a Rock God, but he’s also a man. And I’m the woman he never saw coming.

The narrator was awesome

This narrator could read a shopping list and be sexy. Added so much to a great story line.

Beautifully 😞 Broken!

🔥Overall I enjoyed this book!
Wildly sexy, edgy, dripping with excitement!
Kudos to our narrators Sarah and Troy! Once again 10 STARS!
Brava to Cassandra for writing such a deliciously spicy book ~ emphasis on "dirty talk lol!

My heart went out to both characters since they were both terribly "BROKEN"!

Poor Gia - basically a newly graduated high schooler....turned groupie! Wanna be photographer ...no education, no experience....just LIVIN on love baby! AHHH! Young love! I actually felt sorry for her since she lived in a bubble of confusion and delusion. I wanted to shake her and say - WAKE UP doll, ya have your entire life in front of you!

Reece - Yikes, HOT MESS X 1000! There's nothing about him I liked. He was sarcastic, ignorant and vulgar. His persistent to drive everyone away says it all! Wayyyyyy too awkward and past the pale! He treated women like a piece of meat, super abusive bonus devil may care attitude! Zoinks!

The autor brought me into their worlds, behind the scenes and even dove into their past! (personal tribulations)

Their relationship was more DESTRUCTIVE than a case of dynamite!
...but the story drew me in and held my attention! I felt their pain! (Tons of angst! AHHH!) Although I could have done with less angst! It was a bit too gloom n doom for me - but overall an entertaining book.
If you're into sultry, uber sexy romance books with plenty of dirty talk - this may be your next fave book!

Namaste romance lovers! 🔥 * Moral of the story...money aint everything!

LOVE THIS WHOLE SERIES

Sooooo sad that it’s over… I love their story. Both narrators did a phenomenal job bringing these characters to life.

Annoying female lead

The story was intriguing. Gia was so annoying throughout the story. Her behavior didn’t make sense. She made him fall for her then got upset about his past. He actually never cheated on her throughout the entire story. But she always played victim.

Great story (Spoiler alert!!)

Ok.. great story. Freaking awesome narration!!
The story started out great, unfortunately I started hating the main female character when she was supposedly heartbroken because he said he would be in his babies life.. I mean really? Why would she want him not too. And come on, she knew he was a rockstar who had been living his best life BEFORE she came into his life. Like really?? Why is she acting like he cheated on her? She was the one acting like a crazy fan, and begging him to be with her💆🏽‍♀️.. he warned her over and over again.
Like I said loved the story and the romance until that. I tried to finish it without despising her, just waiting for her to apologize for being such a brat.
