The Rocker Who Cherishes Me
Wroth
The marines took me from a Tennessee farm boy and turned me into a hard man. Between the things I’d seen during my tour of duty and the things I’d done during my years as a member of OtherWorld, nothing could faze me. Nothing.
Except for HER.
She’s everything that is good in the world. At least, my world. Everything I’ve ever done has been for her. Always for her. I feel as if I need her to breathe, to feel alive. But I can’t have Marissa. She’s to innocent, to damn perfect. And me? I’m not good enough for that girl. She deserves better, someone who would spend their life CHERISHING her. Not breaking her heart.
Marissa
Between my brother and Wroth Niall I’d been protected from the world for most of my life. You would think I was still a little girl the way they treated me. But I wasn’t made out of glass. It would take a lot to break this girl. Because if a childhood cancer hadn’t kicked my butt, nothing would. Right?
Wrong.
All I’ve ever wanted was for him to look at me. Really look at me and see that I wasn’t a fragile piece of porcelain that would break if he touched me. What I got was a lot more…but nowhere close to enough. Once I touched heaven—at least heaven for me—and now I didn’t know how to go back to what Wroth and I had had before. I can’t go back to the life I was living before my short time with Wroth. It would destroy me to stay that close, when I know that I’m not what he really wants. So when my brother asks me to go on tour with him yet again, I decide to jump on that tour bus without a backwards glance.
Only I wasn’t prepared to be stuck on HIS bus.

This was my least favorite in the series (thus far), which was VERY surprising to me being that I had been very much looking forward to Marissa and Wroth's story for the last couple books.
Their scenes from previous books had led me to believe that their book was going to be awesome, but alas it was not meant to be. The chemistry they displayed previously was here in the beginning and then just just kept dwindling as the story continued.
Also, they were supposedly apart for more than a year over something that could have been solved over a year ago with a 5 minute conversation. Between that, their dwindling chemistry, and Wroth's insistence that Marissa , I just didn't feel all that invested in their relationship. In fact, I was more interested in the goings on between Devlin and Natalie.
Thus, by the time I got to one of the big end scenes () - which I'm sure was super cute to most - I was just rolling my eyes at the cheesiness of it and practically skimming just to make it stop.
But I'm sure it was just me.
I'm hoping that this doesn't happen for the next book too.

The Rocker Who Cherishes Me was the eighth book in the Rocker series by Terri Anne Browning.
Wroth was the guitarist for the famous rock band, OtherWorld. Marissa was the sister to one of Wroth’s band mates, Liam. We learned previously that Liam, Marissa and Wroth grew up together and Wroth had always protected Marissa. At some point it had become more, but on the last OtherWorld tour, the two broke up.
The Rocker Who Cherishes Me began about a year after the last book ended. Marissa had successfully avoided Wroth but with a new tour things were about to change. Browning then took us through their obstacles as Wroth was determined to win Marissa back. Browning simultaneously wove the remaining band members’ lives into the plot as well, setting the stage for future books.
All in all, it was heartfelt and enjoyable. The plot drug on a little, and had some gaps in the storyline, but hopefully those will be filled in with the next book, The Rocker Who Shatters Me.

Have you ever read a book and felt no connection whatsoever? My sentiments exactly. When it comes to rating I'm torn between 2 or 3 stars. So 2.5?
It could've been me and the result of having a shitty day but I'm moving on. By the way, you do need to read the previous books.

It kills me to one star this. But I spent much of this book absolutely raging.
All of those points together? I'm so disappointed in in this book. Which tears me up because I've really enjoyed these characters up until now. I hope this kind of thing doesn't go on for the rest of the band members stories.
The one good thing? I'm looking forward to a Linc/Rhett M/M story.

Marissa & Wroth
Marissa had a rough childhood. Her mother died when she was young and she only had her father and half brother Liam. Liam had been sent to live with his aunt and cousin Wroth. Then Marissa's father passed as well before her teen years and she too was sent to live with Wroth.
The 2 boys were super protective of there "little sister" but Wroth was not really blood related to Marissa. And Marissa loved Wroth with everything she had. Wroth being a bit older than Marissa only had friendship in mind since she was so young.
Marissa fought leukemia at a young age and finally with the help of Liam & Worths band OtherWorld a bone marrow match was found and she had a transplant at the age of 17.
Now that she lived she practically worshiped Wroth.
Wroth had fought the more than friends and big brother feelings for Marissa for awhile now. Wroth had went into the Marines to help save his families farm in Tennessee.
Now the two were best friends and Wroth's protectiveness of Marissa kept most other guys away. But he has a hard time fighting these feelings for Marissa.
Marissa shows him that she wants more and he has no choice but to give into the feelings. Along the way some information was misleading and Marissa gets her heart broken. Marissa does not stop to find out the facts she just runs for the hills. In this case California.
One year later the 2 are thrown together again and the misleading information is resolved as well as their friendship. Maybe this relationship can be saved. Maybe Wroth is worthy of Marissa's love. Which is good since Wroth can't breathe without her.
The 2 work through their issues and there is a surprize Wizard of Oz scene which I found really fun. Marissa loves the Wizard of Oz so it was a perfect scene for the characters. Terri Anne Browning did another amazing job with this series. I love the ROCKERS.

Loved it! Marissa and Wroth's story was so worth the wait! This series just continues to get better and better! And I love the family feel of all these guys! Nik and Emmie, especially Emmie, hold this crew together. Shane, Drake, Axton....sigh, just love all these characters and the women who make them whole! Can't wait for Natalie and Devlin's story next, but really dying for Liam and Gabriella's story! I dropped everything to read this book because this series is an all time favorite of mine! I will continue to recommend it to everyone and will anxiously await the next book!
Terri Anne Browning..... YOU ROCK!!!!

Needed a bit more steam but I really liked it!
Wish there was a bit more detail into what Wroth did during the year they were apart, so I took off for that.

3 ⭐⭐⭐ - OK, or decent reads
=======================
(The Rocker - OtherWorld 08) The Rocker Who Cherishes Me (Terri Anne Browning)
=======================
I loved him. Plain and simple. There have been times I wished that I didn’t love him, but honestly I couldn’t have fallen for a better guy. Wroth knows what’s important in life. He’s served his country as a marine, used his enlistment bonus to pull the farm that has been in his family for five generations out of financial trouble, and treats me and his momma like we are fine china.
“You’ll still be just as beautiful without all that hair, Mari.”
I couldn’t handle being that close to Wroth Niall again.
“I’m sure it will be fun,” I finally told him with a smile that hurt my cheeks because it was so forced. Linc raised a brow at me, letting me know that he didn’t believe me, but didn’t call me on it.
Liam’s whole personality had changed. He wasn’t as moody, wasn’t as scary quiet, and was a lot more outgoing. He also had about thirty pounds of muscle on him, when before he’d been practically skin and bones. It had done nothing but make skank groupies drool over him all the more. Yuck!
I’d gone home, reluctantly, but only because I believed what Liam had said was the truth. Marissa just wasn’t ready to talk to me. She wasn’t ready to hear my side of what had happened that fucked up night. So I would respect her wishes until she was ready.
I cared about Marissa, and I wanted her with a need that I’d never felt in my entire life, but I couldn’t contaminate her with my dirty past. I wouldn’t.
As I stepped out of the back of the cab after Natalie, I was shocked to see that some of them had signs that said “I Can Give You A Baby Shane! Drop The Wife And Come Be With A REAL Woman!”
I actually felt sick after reading that trash.
I simply refused to chop off my hair like Natalie had done.
(The Rocker - OtherWorld 08) The Rocker Who Cherishes Me (Terri Anne Browning)
“Holy shit,” Emmie murmured as she took hold of Natalie’s arms. “What the hell happened to you?” Natalie shrugged. “I needed a change.” “So you lost your mind and chopped off a part of yourself? Gee, way to follow the example of every other heartbroken chick in the world.”
You know, the one that girls my age didn’t have. The one that Wroth Niall had point blank told me he hadn’t wanted before he’d gone and screwed some slut.
It was a cute piercing on a chick, but on Marissa it pissed me off. I didn’t want her pierced or tatted up. Not my Marissa. She was too damn pure to defile her body with holes and ink.
The memory of that first kiss haunted me repeatedly, replaying over and over again, taunting me with how earth shaking it had been. Still was.
One, that I needed to save my friend from a date with death. And two…? That I wanted to kick Wroth Niall’s ass because he had no right to be jealous of anyone I was or wasn’t having a relationship with because he had lost all privileges to me and my life when he had cheated on me.
After I’d fucked up to the point that the woman who had once loved me just as much as I loved her, now hated the sight of me.
Fuck, I wished things were different. I wish I’d never tried to push her away last year. I’d known the second I’d done what I’d done that it was a mistake and that I didn’t really want to be without her.
But by then I’d already fucked up and there was no going back from what Marissa had seen.
“I keep thinking about that fucking bet,” Natalie said, twisting the napkin in her hands until it started to tear. “How could they…he do that to me? I thought we had something special, but all I ended up being was some kind of immature fun for him and damn Zander.”
“I don’t want a man who is going to cheat on me.”

Wroth has always loved Marissa. The day she and her brother Liam came into his family she brought a light into his life. Everything he did, he did for her. She was so sweet and innocent he couldn’t help but want to protect her and take care of her. He joined the marines to help save his family’s farm. Leaving home a boy but coming back a hardened man. The things he had seen during his tour of duty would haunt him for years. Marissa was the only good in his world. Then she got cancer and all he wanted was for her to get well. As the years went on and Marissa recovers from her cancer she changes from the little girl he adored to the woman he cannot stop thinking about. He wants her, his desire for her strong. He can’t have her she’s too good, too perfect, and too innocent for him. Marissa will show him that he deserves her love. She shows him she can help him fight his demons and have a life worth cherishing.
What a beautiful love story. We learned a little about Wroth and Marissa’s story and their incredible connection in previous books. Wroth is the strong silent type. Marissa loved him from the time she was a teenager but kept it to herself. Wroth was a never-ending presence in her life. Wherever Marissa was Wroth was not far behind. He was her savior, her protector she couldn’t foresee her life without him in it. When she finally breaks down his walls, he starts to see her as the woman she has become, and not the little girl with cancer she once was. They develop a quite relationship. Wroth rarely leaves her side. Until one dreadful day, everything falls apart and Marissa and Wroth are both left heart broken.
This story was fascinating to me. The writing flowed so well, I was unable to put it down. Marissa is a tough cookie she survived cancer she can surly survives getting over Wroth right. Um, maybe not. I loved how Wroth refused to allow her to give up on him. He proved to her that his love for her was eternal. I felt her pain. I felt his pain. I cried for them both. Then. Now. Forever. This series is so worth getting into.
The Rocker Series is my favorite rock romance. Each installment gets better and better. Mrs. Browning manages to give each rocker their own unique story. She keeps us glue to our e-readers anxiously anticipating how the story will end for the featured couple. She incorporates the rest of the rocker extended family into every book as well. That keeps us engrossed and wanting more, more, and more.

“The next few minutes would be the defining moment in my life. Would I spend the rest of my life with the woman I needed more than I needed air to breathe… or would she walk away?”

“The voice in my head, the one that constantly told me that I was no good for this girl, that I would only bring her heartache and taint her with the evilness that I had seen and performed while in the Marines was quieter than usual. The voice of my heart, the one that always seemed so faint was suddenly screaming to take what was mine. Love her, cherish her.”
Marissa Bryant has been in love with OtherWorld guitarist Wroth Niall since she was a teen stricken with cancer. Wroth had struggled with being worthy of Marissa for several years. And when they finally took their chance on love, one night tore them apart. Meanwhile his bandmate, Devlin, didn’t fair much better when it came to keeping his girl.
The tour that brought Axton and Dallas together destroyed Marissa and Wroth and Natalie and Devlin’s budding romances, leaving both girls broken hearted. But these rock girls are tough, and they aren’t going to let the boys keep dragging them down for long. In fact, they might just try to turn the tables on them.
Marissa is such a sweetie and has tremendous strength for all she’s been through. One of the great things about the females in The Rocker...series is how they trudge through and stay strong even when they are hurting. There’s a lot of fun female bonding in this one, and the camaraderie among the girls comes through. There’s also quite a few steamy “foreplay” scenes between her and Wroth. Grab your fan to cool yourself down. Is it hot in that roost or what? :)
As always, the other band members have fun appearances, making you wish you were a part of their close knit crew. Who knew Shane looked good in peach or that Jesse’s twins were breast men already! ;-) There’s also hints about future books planted along the way that will have you itching for the next installments. Natalie and Devlin teasers abound. Trust me, you won’t want to put this down.
Can Wroth finally step up to the plate in time to win Marissa’s heart back and regain her trust, or will Marissa go through with her plan to return the heartache?
Find out the circumstances of the incident that broke Marissa’s heart, and what Wroth intends to do to fix it. Once again Terri delivers a stunning HEA, and this one is so creative and unique! I won’t spoil it with any details because there are lots of great turns along the way, but I will say leave it to Emmie to help make magic happen.

I love love Terri Anne’s rockers. I have waited on Wroth and Marissa, in the last few books and I have to say I was of course NOT disappointed. Wroth an Marissa had a connection very similar to Nik and Emmie. (I loved it then and I love it now!).
Wroth and Marissa had been everything to each other as friends, and as she got older it changed to deeper feelings. One mistake damaged it all.
In true fashion I loved Terri Anne’s work and I read it as fast as I could. I love seeing glimpses of all my favorites, with updates its one of my favorite things about her writing.
I will admit there was a min or so there when I thought there was no way I could like Marissa, because of what she was planning, but she won me over.
Wroth. Wroth, has quickly moved up into my favorite rocker category for this series. Nik, Jessie, Wroth and Drake. I love Wroth and how he has always been devoted to Marissa and how he planned to win her back.
Her love of all things OZ and the sweet things he does because of it will bring a tear to your eyes.
If you have read just one of the books in this series and liked it, I know you will love this one as well!
I cannot wait for the rest of this series!

After reading the other rocker series books you expect hot and steamy sex scenes, this book was so much more than that. Oh don't get me wrong there are hot scenes that may have you taking a shower but in the end it's about unconditional love. Wroth and Marissa have such a sweet story, Wroth the big bad scary rocker and Marissa the little girl everyone wants to protect. Wroth has always loved Marissa every since she was young and there has never been another for Marissa, until one day a mistake is made and for a year they are apart, but even apart they can't deny there love for one other.
I don't want to say to much and spoil the book for others but I loved seeing the softer side of Wroth. After having characters like Emmie and Dallas it was a little hard to see Marissa being so protected.

I couldn't put this book down. I knew from the previous books how Wroth treated Rissa, I knew he couldn't of done what the first part of the book made u believe. The way this book kept you in touch with all the rockers is just amazing. The wizard oz is a great piece in this book. I need and want more please...

This has by far been my favorite of the Rocker series so far. I loved how Wroth was a gentle giant with Marissa and their love was so strong and fierce.
The reason Marissa stayed away from Wroth WAS believable. He was so territorial of her and it was awesome! I loved hearing his thoughts about Rhett & Marissa and his caveman antics. Great read!

Review by Lisa Kane
I adore Terri Browning's Rocker series and this newest addition is just as fantastic as the ones before! Marissa Bryant is Liam's step sister. We got an in depth view into his life in Axton and Dallas' story, The Rocker Who Wants Me. Liam had serious drug issues, has since cleaned up with Dallas's help and is ready to go back on tour. Marissa is his younger step sister; she battled childhood leukemia and he is fiercly protective of her. Marissa has been head over heels in love with Wroth Niall, one of the guitarists for OtherWorld for as long as she can remember.
“Mari…”
He was using the nickname I loved so much, but I could tell he was about to let me down easy. I couldn’t let him. I needed his kiss to get me through the weeks that were about to follow. “Please, Wroth. I’ll never ask you for anything ever again. I promise. Just… Please. One kiss. I…” I hated thinking the next words, let alone saying them but I was desperate. “I might not…” My voice broke, and I was unable to finish the sentence, but I saw the way the skin around his eyes tightened. “…I want to know what a real kiss feels like.”
“You really know how to gut a guy, huh?” He shook his head, but didn’t try to stand again.
I didn’t answer, because I didn’t know how to respond. Was he really gutted at the thought of losing me? When I just sat there, staring up at him, my plea still in my eyes, he groaned. “Mari, you know I’d give you anything you want.” With a curse under his breath, he raised his hands and cupped both sides of my face. “You’re so beautiful, girl.”
Where he once thought of her as his own sister, those thoughts changed once Marissa got older.
It wasn’t until she was nineteen that my feelings had changed. One day I looked at Marissa and saw the same girl I’d always seen. The beautiful chick that could make me laugh when no one else could, with her kind blue eyes and slightly plump body. The next day? I’d seen the same chick, but just the sight of her had made me ache in a way I’d never ached before. I’d looked into her blue eyes, twinkling with merriment over something she was teasing me about, and had had a pain sharp and burning shoot through my chest, leaving me gasping for a breath that I still couldn’t fully take in.
He wants her, needs her, cherishes her. A year ago it seemed they were both finally on the same page about their feelings and being together and then all hell broke lose when Marissa saw Wroth in a compromising position with a groupie.
“Tell me not to touch them, Mari. Tell me and I won’t.”
Her eyes widened. “I don’t believe you.”
“Have I ever lied to you? Do you have any reason to not believe me?” My hand had wrapped her hair around my wrist until I was now cupping the back of her skull. I used my thumb to massage her scalp. “Tell me, Mari. Tell me.”
“Don’t touch them,” she whispered, losing some of her confidence. Long, dark, thick lashes lowered to hide those blue eyes from me. Hiding her thoughts from me. “Please don’t touch them, Wroth.”
“Okay,” I rasped. Pulling her head down, I nuzzled the side of her neck. “Anything you want, sweetheart. Anything at all. All you ever have to do is say the words.”
She has nursed her broken heart for over a year and refuses to even speak to Wroth. He has pursued her relentlessly, but she won't budge. Now that her brother is going out on tour with his band, he thinks he may have a chance. Liam refuses to let Marissa stay in New York by herself. Her roommates, Linc and Natalie (Drake and Shane's sister) will be on tour. Natalie assists Emmie and Linc is Liam's physical therapist, treating him from the car accident injuries that almost ended his life. Wroth thinks this is the chance he has been waiting for!
I loved Marissa Bryant. Have loved her every day of her life.
Marissa comes up with a scheme to seduce Wroth then kick him to the curb at the end of the tour. Let him see how if feels to hurt badly. But in spite of her best intentions, Wrath is so anxious for a second chance and is so over the top Alpha over her that she can't help but have her heart melt-at least a little.
Thinking of the pain I had to live with on a daily basis reminded me of the payback I was going to have by the end of this tour. I should start it all right now, give in to him and let him think I was malleable, ready to start where we had left off before I’d confronted him about what I’d walked in on that horrible night…
She plays games in this one, pushes his buttons with his jealousy over other guys, especially over Rhett Tomlinson, one of the guys from Trance, touring with them. There is quite the twist with that relationship that I didn't see coming!
We are treated to all our favorite characters from the Rocker series as they are all on the same tour. Emmie and Nik have their 2 kids with them, Layla and Jesse have their terror twin boys and Lucy, Lana and Drake have Neveah and she is expecting again, Axton and Dallas have their son Cannon and Shane and Harper and their dog complete the picture. Shane and Harper are still broken hearted over their fertility problems. There is some intrigue and suspense with them in this story, and a heart stopping moment with Ranger, their dog. I am wondering if this story line will be expanded when we get their follow up novel.
Marissa is a huge Wizard of Oz lover and there is a great tie in with the movie and this story. I haven't read one of Ms. Browning's stories that has disappointed me and this one just proves her writing is consistently great!
“I love you, Marissa. Then. Now. Forever. I gave you Oz, but all I want in return is you."
Review by Lisa Kane
I adore Terri Browning's Rocker series and this newest addition is just as fantastic as the ones before! Marissa Bryant is Liam's step sister. We got an in depth view into his life in Axton and Dallas' story, The Rocker Who Wants Me. Liam had serious drug issues, has since cleaned up with Dallas's help and is ready to go back on tour. Marissa is his younger step sister; she battled childhood leukemia and he is fiercly protective of her. Marissa has been head over heels in love with Wroth Niall, one of the guitarists for OtherWorld for as long as she can remember.
“Mari…”
He was using the nickname I loved so much, but I could tell he was about to let me down easy. I couldn’t let him. I needed his kiss to get me through the weeks that were about to follow. “Please, Wroth. I’ll never ask you for anything ever again. I promise. Just… Please. One kiss. I…” I hated thinking the next words, let alone saying them but I was desperate. “I might not…” My voice broke, and I was unable to finish the sentence, but I saw the way the skin around his eyes tightened. “…I want to know what a real kiss feels like.”
“You really know how to gut a guy, huh?” He shook his head, but didn’t try to stand again.
I didn’t answer, because I didn’t know how to respond. Was he really gutted at the thought of losing me? When I just sat there, staring up at him, my plea still in my eyes, he groaned. “Mari, you know I’d give you anything you want.” With a curse under his breath, he raised his hands and cupped both sides of my face. “You’re so beautiful, girl.”
Where he once thought of her as his own sister, those thoughts changed once Marissa got older.
It wasn’t until she was nineteen that my feelings had changed. One day I looked at Marissa and saw the same girl I’d always seen. The beautiful chick that could make me laugh when no one else could, with her kind blue eyes and slightly plump body. The next day? I’d seen the same chick, but just the sight of her had made me ache in a way I’d never ached before. I’d looked into her blue eyes, twinkling with merriment over something she was teasing me about, and had had a pain sharp and burning shoot through my chest, leaving me gasping for a breath that I still couldn’t fully take in.
He wants her, needs her, cherishes her. A year ago it seemed they were both finally on the same page about their feelings and being together and then all hell broke lose when Marissa saw Wroth in a compromising position with a groupie.

I have absolutely loved every single one of Terri Anne Browning's books, and The Rocker Who Cherishes Me was no different.
This book had everything I've come to expect from one of her books. It had a couple I immediately rooted for and loved. It had a cast of characters that enveloped me in with their unique and charming selves. The story itself was one I was hooked into immediately, and could not put down.
I honestly cannot get enough of these books. Every time I read a new book in this series, I just fall more and more in love with all of these characters, new and old. I think that's what I love most about this series and this authors writing. She gives me the chance to meet and fall in love with a new unique couple, but she still gives me glimpses and moments with all the other characters I've come to fall in love with.
The Rocker Who Cherishes Me tells the story of Wroth and Melissa. Their story is one filled to the brim with so many emotions and feelings. This book finds these two off to a pretty rocky start together. Having met these two in other books in this series, I was thrilled to get to spend a book within their heads.
This book gives you the chance to understand more of the past between Wroth and Melissa, and it allows you to really get to know them. I loved both of their characters, and I especially loved reading everything going on between them. Wroth and Melissa both have some very strong feelings about one another, and it was just fantastic to read them try and make sense of all of them.
Reading them go through all they experience in this book just pulled at my heart for these two. They've got a love story that's been years in the making, and its one filled with as much pain and hurt as love and happiness. But that made this book.
As any other book that Terri Anne Browning writes, the other beloved characters from former books make memorable appearances in this book. I just cant get enough of how connected all these characters are. They all have unique and interesting bonds and relationships with one another, and reading them all together is just magic on the page. All of these characters combine to make an engaging as hell story that just adds to Wroth and Marissa's story. I also love how she introduces new characters and stories to come in a way that is subtle enough to not take away from the story of the book, but it's just enough to really really pique your interest.
This book was just wonderful in everyway. I loved the story. I couldn't get enough of reading Wroth and Marissa's emotionally charged story. And the supporting characters are some of the best around. This book has love, emotion, all the feelings you can think of, spice, humor, and a cast of unforgettable characters. I love these books, and I'm pretty sure I am just going to continue on loving them!

I will start this out saying I do not give many 5 star reviews but I am a huge fan of this series and real believe that this book totally deserves it. This is Wroth from the Otherworlder's and Marissa Liam's sister. This book can be read as a stand alone but you will be introduced to these characters in The Rocker who wants me. When we first meet these characters we learn that when Marissa was younger she was diagnosed with Leukemia she did go into remission from the disease but all of the group was not sure if she would make it or not. When we start this book we see what happened during that time and how hard is was not only for Marissa and Liam but all the members of his band. They had adopted Marissa as one of their own. We also learn the connection between Wroth and Liam and we now know that they are cousins. Because Marissa and Liam are only step-brother and sister there is no family connection with Wroth other than his parents were the ones to adopt Marissa when their father died making sure that she did not go into foster care. Wroth has a lot of demons that he is wrestling with and Marissa is just one of them. He has made sure that every major decision that he has made has had her in mind in one form or another. This includes joining the marines and joining the band. I will not tell you why you need to read it for your self. In this book we find out that more happened with with people on the last tour than was described in the Rocker who wants me book and I will not tell you all of it you need to read it for yourself. But that being said some of the things that happened in that tour has some major affects on all the women who went on that tour in one form or another. Something happened between Wroth and Marissa that only a few people know about and now that there is a new tour about to start she knows she can't stay away from it or Wroth no matter how much she might want to. What happens in this story will make you laugh it will make you cry, and it will having you falling in love all over again. This book is a must read for anyone and everyone and I would highly recommend it.

LOVED Wroth and Marissa! They were just so great together. Most EVERYTHING about this book rocked my world!! The Rocker Who Cherishes Me is a beautiful, swoon-filled, makes-your-heart-happy story.
The lengths that Wroth would go to and did go to for Marissa were jaw-droppingly awesome. He has easily moved to the top of my book boyfriend list! Wroth is so sweet, protective, patient and respectful of Marissa. Beware: He is capable of inducing goosebumps upon goosebumps!
I really enjoyed reading the flashbacks from their brief romantic relationship beforehand and LOVED getting more of everything from so many of the other characters! All of that roost-lovin' was hot too!
The only problem I had with the book was that I simply CAN'T TAKE all of the sh*t that has been shoveled Harper and Shane's way. PLEASE STOP! The women with the signs (even if Harper and Shane didn't see those themselves), Dallas' pregnancy announcement and the tour bus/dog drama... Rissa wasn't the only one blinking back tears when Harper congratulated Axton and Dallas. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE give them their baby!! Or at least stop with everyone else having babies and then describing the flashes of pain that cross Harper's face because that simply guts me.
A small side-note: Did Gabriella "the Italian rocker" really have to sing at that "event"? I want her to go away for good and WILL NOT be happy if she ends up with Liam later on down the road.
Very excited to read Devlin and Natalie's book, The Rocker Who Shatters Me, next!

In this book we finally saw Wroth and Marissa get their due. It's been a year of misery for them after Marissa sees him with a girl on her knees in front of him. That leads to her fleeing and rejecting him from her life. She spends a year without listening to him, despite his efforts to share his side of the story. Marissa ends up going along for the next tour with her brother and Wroth. She actually only really starts to forgive him after she pledges revenge. However, as she starts to hang out with him more she questions if revenge is really what she wants. Marissa has always been pretty sheltered in her life after a life filled with grief and health troubles. She's got a huge heart and thus logic isn't always her strong suit. Wroth is determined to always be around to protect her, but for this story, she brings about her own troubles by being too emotional and not reasoning out her problems.
The ending was pretty good and unique. However, it seemed a little shallow. I wanted the main characters to have a few more real conversations before their ending came to be. It was a bit of the whole love cures all sort of thing to some extent. Marissa once again accepted Wroth's changes as she saw them without much explanation. While I believe that is ultimately how it should go, I'm disappointed that there wasn't more talking through of their problems and more just physical intimacy.

So here I am again, having finished the latest work by one of my most favorite authors. Terri Anne Browning’s The Rocker Who Cherishes Me is a true gem. Now if you haven’t read her The Rocker series I do recommend starting from the beginning and reading them in order or you will be missing out on a lot of backstory. Believe me you do not want to miss a word.
TRWCM is the story of Wroth and Marissa. It is a love story filled with heartache and happiness. My emotions were all over the place during this journey and once again Terri Anne Browning has done an outstanding job of making the reader feel as if they are a part of the story. I honestly wasn’t sure how much I would love Wroth and now I can say he is up there at the top of my Rocker series list of favorite band members.
Of course all the other band members from not just OtherWorld but Demons Wings as well make appearances in this latest story. And yes all their women and kids are there and add a great deal to the flow of the story. That’s what I love so much about these books; the interaction of all the characters both old and new makes the story so much fun to read. All these hot rockers on one tour are one big, usually happy, family and I’m so in love with all of them.
Thank you Terri Anne Browning for once again bringing OW and DW to life and for giving us the beautiful story of Wroth and Marissa’s love.

The good: I was glad we got to revisit the other rockers in this book. The way they are involved (band tours, flatmates etc.) is natural and the relationships are not forced.
The bad: Several references were made about Marissa and . This felt like unnecessary drama and it did nothing to develop the story. It was an issue conveniently used or conveniently forgotten for the sake of the storyline. I really, really dislike when serious real life issues are used in fiction in such a cavalier manner.
The stuff that makes me rolls me eyes 1: I generally dislike books where the heroine is placed on a pedestal and the hero thinks he is not good enough. I knew this would happen given the insight we've had to Wroth and Marissa previously but I still don't like it. Cry me a river.
The stuff that makes me rolls me eyes 2: Over a whole year in relatively close proximity and no one said anything? Marissa's TSTL moment was believing it. Wroth's TSTL moment was not taking 5 seconds to grab hold of Marissa to set her straight. And where were all the friends and family? They could all see how gloomy these two were yet they exacerbate the drama by not smacking some sense into them both. Again, it could have been handled in 5 seconds.

4.5 STARS
This series is rocking along! The Demon’s Wings boys have settled down and now it’s time for OtherWorld. This is the story or Wroth (cool name) and Marissa. Wroth is the lead guitarist and Marissa is his band member Liam’s sister. They grew up together and Marissa has been in love with him since she was a teenager sick with cancer. Seeing her sick, has caused Wroth to put her in the little sister zone, Marissa has had enough and wants Wroth to see her as a healthy adult woman.
This was such a sweet story. Marissa and Wroth had such an emotional connection. He truly cherishes her which is evident in his marriage proposal. He takes something that he knows would make her happy and runs with it!
Their story has the emotion of the first book- Nic and Emmie’s story. Both bands play a key part in the story and again we get a glimpse of their life after their story ends, I really like authors who do that because I get emotionally invested in the characters and don’t want them to leave me! ( Book nerd problems)
A True Gem addition!

I really like this series. I've read the previous 7 books and I really feel like I'm also a part of their "family".
I'm so happy that everyone in this book has their own story.
I don't really like the heroine in this book actually. Not that she's too annoying or bitchy, but it seems she's just too weak.
But the hero is so damn hot and sweet!
I read book 7 like months ago, so I kinda have that nostalgic feelings when I read this. I just really love that I meet all the characters from the previous books again in this book. And the babies!! They're all soooo cuteeee!!
And not to mention the hot sex scenes!!
I can't wait to read Natalie's story!

I enjoyed The Rocker Who Cherishes Me, but it was not the story that I thought I would get on Wroth and Marissa. Yet, it was a good installment in a series that I love.
I just have to say that I love Wroth Niall. He is fantastic. He loves Marissa like no other. He constantly puts her first in everything. I love his overprotectiveness of her. Marissa is a very lucky girl!! However,I must say that I wanted more on Wroth and his background. I wanted to know what he had gone through in the military and how his time in the service would have affected his ability to start a relationship with Marissa sooner. I also will say that I was upset with Marissa's refusal to communicate with Wroth about what she believed she saw, esp since Wroth had been there taking care of Marissa since she was a little girl, and that the resolution of the problem took way too long to occur.
I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.

One of my many favorite Rocker Series!! I fell in love with all of Demon's Wings and now we have OtherWorld. The two bands are a family and held together by Emmie who started this series in book one. I love how the author incorporates all the characters from this series in all the books. If you haven't read all of them it may be confusing. But as a Fan of them all, I love having them throughout the book.
This is Wroth and Marissa's story. Marissa is Liam's sister, who in her past has suffered from cancer. Wroth is Liam's cousin and bandmate, but not Marissa's cousin. They grew up with Wroth, his parents taking care of them when they had no one. Their story is a great story, their love for one another is beautiful.
The ending had me crying, Wroth is an amazing character. Can't wait for more Other World rocker books!!

To say I love this book would be putting it mildly. The road that Rissa and Wroth had to travel was long and winding but so worth it in the end. I laughed and cried and wanted to knock sense into both of them at times but in the end, happily ever after and them some was what Marissa and Wroth end up with! The author refrained from major drama and suspense to get to the HEA which I am incredibly glad for because Marissa and Wroth have suffered so much heartache and loss both as a couple and individually to last a lifetime. This was the true love story between Marissa and Wroth that we have all been waiting for and we got quite a few peeks at new characters and old favorites with some possibly "new" story lines thrown in to keep us all on the edge of our seats for the next one!!!

I loved it!
Wroth and Marissa's relationship's not that complicated, to be honest, because they love each other. The thing is, the circumstances between them are hard that's why they have a great time fighting with each other.
This book is the eighth installment of The Rocker series. I've been waiting for it for like EVER! I loved it and I think I'm gonna enjoyed reading Natalie's story. Muahaha.
One thing, I really think that the people of this book are too many. It's been a while since I read Nik, Shane, Jesse and Drake stories and I kind of forget who's their wives are. Except for Emmie because Emmie own a special place in my heart. I have a catching up to do. :)
Look forward to read Nat and Dev's story!

This book series started of well, and it was all readable, but then we ran out of Demon's Wings members. I wanted t know about Nik's life, then Jesse, then Drake, and even Shane, but then the series loosed up the grip it had on me. I dismissed the writing style of the series until I lost interest; honestly, there's so much fanfiction on ao3 that's better written and more eventful.
