Rock, Rattle and Roll, Rock Star Romance, Cari Quinn & Taryn Elliott. Review from jeannie zelos book reviewsThird book in series, ( though it's 1.5 – a novella) and it focusses on the fast moving romance between band member Deacon and chef Harper. We met them in the last book, and I loved that. Their romance hasn't been without it's hurdles though, and poor Harper has barely paused for breath with Deacon determined to get her tied to him before she changes her mind :-) Now the band are signed up with new label, an album to come up with, another tour coming up and Harper is having great success with her new business too. It means the newlyweds are barely seeing each other, just passing like ships in the night. So, Deacon arranges a week alone at one of their favourite spots. What a guy he is, he's so thoughtful, so loving especially when we know he's not had that in his own background. Harper adores him, but isn't afraid to argue when she disagrees but how can anyone disagree with this? She's a terrific person too – really sees and understands Deacon. He's not just the tatted, hunky, band member but a man first, band member second to her. So, there they are having fun, enjoying the setting, and can't keep their hands off each other when – bam- something comes up to throw yet another hurdle in front of them. And this one is massive, one there's no way around but which they need to make some fierce decisions...quickly. It's a read so full of emotion, and I understood both of them and their reactions. From that point and as a novella it works but...for me it's a sexy, erotic read but somehow it didn't have that magic spark. I think maybe its that I love so much the first flutterings of a romance, that will he/she or won't he/she feeling...is there attraction, is either of them going to make a move – all that stuff, and here we've Deacon and Harper already in a relationship, passed that bit. I'd have loved this novella as part of a larger book but on its own it just beomces an OK read for me. I'm sure others will 5* it, but we're all different and though as always its well written and plotted it just didn't do a lot for me. Stars: Three ARC provided by Netgalley and publishers. *I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*This was a great little snippett into Deacon and Harper's crazy life!The whole book takes place over about a 1 week time frame. And boy does a lot happen in that 1 week time frame. Even though this was a short book, it still had all the neccesities. Schmexy H.O.T. sex, a bit of bitchiness, a bit of Jazz, and a quick peak into their busy lives that are about to get even crazier!I had a suspicion as to what was going on with Harper and it was their honeymoon so what I expected that to happen on a honeymoon, did. And a lot!!Nick's reaction in the end confused me just a tad bit, but it just means I have to read his story to find out more about him. I'm definitely not complaining about that!!
