Publisher's summary

From New York Times and USA Today best seller Vi Keeland comes a steamy new standalone novel about a rockstar. Or two.

Dimpled smile of a boy
Hard body of a man
Sings like an angel
F***s like the devil

I was stuck between a rock(star) and a hard place. At 15, his poster hung on my bedroom wall. At 25 his body hovered over mine. Every girl's fantasy became my reality. I was dating a rockstar. Yet I was slowly falling for another man. The problem was - the two men - they shared a tour bus.

Flynn Beckham was the opening act.
Dylan Ryder was the headliner.

What happens when the opening act begins to shine so bright, it seems to dim everything else in its wake?

I'll tell you what happens. Things get ugly.

Sex in a Song Bird

I really enjoyed this story. The relationship of the people in this world of music was exciting. You could almost guess who the real rock stars would have been, if the story had been real. For instance, I know exactly who I would pick for Dylan Ryder and who I would choose for Flynn Beckham. Not sure who I see for Lucky. But you can be sure she will be as hot as the guys. Loved this book. It definitely took me away from reality. Nice escape. The narrators are excellent. They definitely brought out the sexiness in these characters. Gonna continue listening to Vi's books. Great writer.

What’s the secret?!

I kept waiting for the secret. The female always sounded as though she was lowering her voice to tell someone something she didn’t want anyone else to hear!

Great narration

Ok so in this book Flynn from book one totally redeems himself. We get to find out that actually he's pretty humble. He falls quickly for Lucky the owner of a karaoke bar but she has a boyfriend, the lead singer of the headlining act that his band has just signed to open for.

Now I don't normally like to read about cheating and technically this was but I pushed through and was happy to know that all parties weren't being honest so that softened the cheating thing.

I found myself wanting Flynn to just get the girl. And of course he does in the end but it's a rocky road to get there.

Molly and Sebastian do a great job on the narration in this one and in the end we get that happy ending we are searching for all the way through.

Alright

Not my favorite book. Probably in part because of the whole being with other people part. It was a decent book though and it all worked out. I didn't feel too bad for the other person involved because they weren't loyal to begin with. Alas the life of a Rock and Roll stars.

Your bus troubles

Funny how you can be a girlfriend to one and lover to another... Flynn’s story (after loosing the girl from the game show) , gets much better here as he falls for the bartender who just happens to be the main squeeze of the lead in the band he just signed a tour contract with... great Rick band story with multiple elements. Molly and Sebyo keep it as a great listen. Thanks to Vi for another great book!

cute story

this is a cute story, although I feel like the storyline was a little rushed and jumped from one scene to another. I found myself having to rewind a few times to make sure I was understanding the full scene. Other than that it was a great read as usual by this author

The heart prevails

Great quick listen and narration and who doesn’t love a story about rock stars! Let it Go!

I SAID "JUST 1 MORE CHAPTER"... OVER & OVER AGAIN

Lucky is part owner of Lucky's - a Bar that has a small stage and famous and not so famous Musicians make unscheduled appearances to perform or just drink there and where people can enjoy embarrassing themselves at Karaoke too. That's where Lucky first gave the oh so beautiful and dimpled Flynn a screaming orgasm (a drink ladies!!) and they were immediately drawn to each other but, as tempting as Flynn was... especially when he sang to Lucky, and as sweet as he asked her out, Lucky had to resist his many many charms.

The next time they met Lucky's in the arms of the world famous lead singer Dylan Ryder of the Rock Band Easy Ryder.... and Flynn's Band is hoping to go on tour with them (Oops). But first, kFlynn finds himself standing in for one of the Musicians and sharing a Tour Bus with Lucky, the woman of his dreams and her arrogant boyfriend and it's sheer torture for him. From then on the mutual attraction continues to simmer and sizzle... first they agree to become friends because Lucky's been brought on tour to be Voice Coach for Flynn as he has a slight problem and they spend lots of time together - all of it is very tender, touching and romantic. However over time, their compatibility along with the pull, chemistry and sizzles whenever they touched, ended up to be too great a temptation for both of them to resist anymore.... but yes, Lucky did try over and over again to resist.

Lucky didn't want to be a cheater, she kept making excuses up so not to nhave sex with her boyfriend Dylan but behind the scenes Dylan was no Saint.... whereas Flynn was - never giving in to Groupie temptation which was all around because his focus, only desire and goal was Lucky. And so it went on - Lucky was in a relationship that she had once thought was great (despite the age difference), but now her heart's torn - the overwhelming feelings for Flynn has totally confused her and made her look at the relationship again.... which was first stemmed from her love of a Rock Legend when she was just 15. Whereas, when she's with Flynn it feels like it's truly the real deal - but she's been with Dylan for a year and many careers are riding on her to not rock the boat (including Flynn's). So, even though Flynn has been patient and given her time then tried ultimatums, Lucky doesn't know what's best for everybody. However, in the end it's jealous Dylan who takes charge and splits the lovers up.... and then got some very sensational pictures about himself and Lucky splashed all over the media - which nearly destroyed a heartbroken Flynn.

I really enjoyed this riveting listen and I thought I liked Alpha bad boys.... until Flynn came along who was (hold on coz I'm about to gush here) kind, thoughtful, patient, sexy,
sweet, understanding, hot, talented, sexy, handsome, tattooed, loyal, sexy, loving and a very very good Uncle too. Lucky did annoy me the way she strung Flynn on and lied to Dylan, who I admit was a scumbag, but it WAS his show. There were very tender intimate moments and sexy times too but the greatest strength in this book was the undeniable passion and chemistry between Flynn and Lucky which came out loud and clear all through the listen. Dual POV's, standalone and good narration.

Worth a credit? Vi Keeland wrote a wonderful story that was all-consuming and enjoyable about a torturous heartbreaking forbidden love that Fate had a hand in turning it into a sweet HEA.... and Destiny weaved it's magic for the beautiful Epilogue.

Enjoyed this series!

This story is about Flynn's life on road. It's book 2 of the series. You don't have to listen book 1 first but you should if only for Sebastian York's narration. I absolutely enjoyed this listen. To me, Book 1 has a little more humor and cat fights due to TV reality series. Book 2 has more sex details about rock musicians life on the road. It's a good listen. Both narrators did fantastic.

It Had me on the edge of my seat

Truly one of the best romance stories out. I was on the edge of my seat and anticipating ever chapter. Def a must listen.
