Cherry ---
Memories alone can ruin you. Fear has a paralyzing effect, and love isn’t
always enough to keep you safe. Ace was the gateway to a freedom I hadn’t known
since I was fifteen. He offered his protection from the demons that haunted me,
both living and dead. Although I knew I wasn’t enough to keep him, this didn’t
deter my hope that one day he’d love me for who I was, not the broken girl he
tried so desperately to save. In the end, the ghosts of my past found me. Their
malevolence knew no bounds, and I was forced to succumb to their will of
darkness. Each threat named against those I loved made any escape impossible;
choosing my life for theirs became my desolate absolution. Inevitably, my own
weakness and self-doubt became my undoing.
Ace ---
Emotional ties are sometimes
severed. Friendships don’t always endure their hardships, and love offered
isn’t always returned. I was in love once. For me, leaving her back in Ohio was the hardest thing I’ve
ever had to do. For her, moving on with her life that included her son and the
man she loved was no less than she deserved - unconditional happiness. My
reasons to bring Cherry home to California were obvious. I needed help
with my family, and she needed help staying clean and convincing her parents
she was ready to give her son the life he deserved. It was a perfect plan.
However, the best-laid plans often get lost amidst their best intentions.
Cherry fell in love with me, and in return, my love for her acted as the
catalyst to her destruction.

Would I recommend this book: Yes! This is a transition book for Ms. Bextor from MC to Rock Band. Love the way her characters move from one lifestyle to another and still have roots in both worlds. The book has hot sex, hot guys and gusty women that don’t ever quit.
Would I read other books by this author: Yes! I can’t wait to read the next book in this series, it is amazing!
