Book Description
Molly Webster has always followed the rules. After an ugly scandal tore apart her childhood and made her the focus of the media’s harsh spotlight, she vowed to live an ordinary life. No fame. No impropriety. No pain. Then she meets Zachary Fox, a tattooed bad boy rocker with a voice like whiskey and sin, and a touch that could become an addiction.
A one-night stand with the hottest rock star on the planet, that’s all it was meant to be…
Fox promises scorching heat and dangerous pleasure, coaxing Molly to extend their one-night stand into a one-month fling. After that, he’ll be gone forever, his life never again intersecting with her own. Sex and sin and sensual indulgence, all with an expiration date. No ties, no regrets. Too late, Molly realizes it isn’t only her body that’s become addicted to Fox, but her heart…
My Review
Molly and Fox both come into this having had bad childhood's that scarred them. I like a scarred character and like seeing them get past their problems. Fox is in a rock band and Molly is at a party with her sister, Thea and Fox sees Molly and is attracted to her. He seduces her and asks for a 1 month long fling. I found it a little hard to believe that with all the walls Molly had built up around herself and the fact that she was still a virgin that she agree's to a fling with him.
She doesn't want anyone to know that they are seeing each other so no hand holding in public and she overreacts quite a bit at first. I get that she's not used to his lifestyle but I didn't like her attitude at first. She does mellow out which was nice though. There are a few arguments on both of their sides that could have been easily take care of if they had just talked. Communication is always the thing that causes problems in this kind of book.
They quickly fall for each other and decide to take things for longer than a month but again, the communication or lack there of causes a few problems for them. I like Fox's band mates and how well they get along. We see what could be relationship's building in some of the band mates a well as with Molly's friends and sister. It'll be fun to see how that works out in future books.
The one thing that did bother me was the amount of unnecessary sex in this book. I'm no prude but these two go at it like bunnies and it just seemed to be over done. I like how this ended and am looking forward to reading more in this series.
I give this book 3 out of 5 stars.
I had to laugh because our reactions were nearly identical. :)
ReplyDeleteReally? lol That is funny.
DeleteBunnies is fun in real life though haha
ReplyDeleteBwahahaha It sure is.
DeleteSounds like they were sure hopping!
ReplyDeleteLOL Hopping all over the place.
DeleteOh yes I have this one to read too!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to what you thought on it.
DeleteI need to try this. I love Nalini Singh's paranormal stuff, but I've yet to try her contemporary stuff. Sounds great.

It was a fun read.
DeleteNice review
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteI think I have this as a freebie...hmm
ReplyDeleteIt was a freebie when I got it too.
DeleteIt's always interesting to see scarred characters move forward. It does sound a bit weird that Molly agrees to the fling. I am not always a fan of communication issues in romances tough as it has such an easy solution. Too bad that it was a bit too sex heavy. It sounds like a solid start of the series.
ReplyDeleteI hope the rest of the series is a little better.
DeleteNice written review. Book reviews are always nice to see, they can help you decide if it's worth the time to read it.
ReplyDeleteThat is my hope. Thank you.
DeleteThat Fox is one hot dude. Plot is inviting.
ReplyDeleteHe is a hot dude.
DeleteLOL I was the opposite. I LOVED all the sex. I'd been reading only PG books at the time (cozies) and needed the heat. I was happy they were going at it like bunnies ;)
ReplyDeletelol Oh dang that's funny.
DeleteI can see why you'd have some issues with this one. I never really understand how some heroines wait all this time, and then sleep with the "hot guy" because they just can't help themselves. :eye roll:
ReplyDeleteYeah it just doesn't make sense.
