Camden

Publisher's Summary

Sometimes there's a moment when you know you've screwed up. For Camden Skinner, it's the night a dead pop star walks into his pub.

As one-half of Skin, an agency which specializes in cleaning up behind the ultra-rich and infamous, Cam has gotten used to getting his hands dirty. A little too used to it. After the young singer at the center of a client's controversy is found dead, Cam decides he's out. He walks away from Skin in search of a simpler life. Maybe even a shot at redemption.

Redemption arrives in the form of Yara Bujold.

The singer's meteoric rise to the top surprised no one more than Yara herself. All she ever wanted was to make music. Caught up in the dark underbelly of the industry, Yara is forced to fake her own death. But she can't hide forever.

Yara tracks down one of the principals at Skin, the very people that helped to tear her down. She'll force Camden Skinner to make it right, whatever it takes. What she doesn't expect is remorse from the man that helped to ruin her. And she certainly doesn't expect to lose herself in him.

Cam finds himself sucked right back into a world he'd hoped never to step foot in again, but he can't walk away. He has to fix this. Not only for himself, but for her. For Yara. Because she might just be everything he didn't know he needed. She just might be everything.

A little mystery, a litte romance, a lot to love.

Enjoyed this story that hooks you in from the beginning with the mystery surrounding a pop star's mishap. Camden is a delicious hero, and I'd sit in his pub and drink him in all day. I enjoy male/female dual narration and it worked well for this story.I got strong vibes there was something brewing between Cam's twin brother Pierce and the striking woman who helps them at the end of this book... will be watching for their story next!

5 Stars of incredible!

I listened to the audio version of this book. This was my first book by Xio Axelrod. The story was so much more than I had anticipated. More emotion, more exploration into the characters...just more of all the good things.
I don't usually like books about rock stars, pop stars, movie stars or models. However, Axelrod really worked on the characterization of Yara and really humanized her in a way that a lot of books dealing with that type of character don't ("Look at me! I'm rich and famous! Look at me!"). I just can't relate to those people, but Yara's character was in a bad situation and needed Cam's help. That made her more likable for me.
Camden was just a great guy from the get-go, even if his company had played a part in Yara's troubles. I loved that he recognized her from the moment she walked in the bar, had her food and drink taken care of and didn't approach her till much later. Then there's the fact that he's super hot!
This book was really good by itself, but the dual narration by Greg Tremblay and Megan Tusing added so much to it! They were both incredible! Awesome audiobook!
