No Love in LA: An angsty queer enemies to lovers rockstar romance
A heavy metal goddess with a crush on…
The stern goth who hates her…
The spark that ignites them both.
Recovering from a breakdown, metal superstar Angela Alice is clawing her way to self-improvement. Except she’s got writer’s block, touring freaks her out, and her mother is getting out of prison.
Oh, and she keeps running into her ex’s best the beautiful goth control freak she’s crushed on for years. Too bad they can’t stand her.
Too bad they can’t stand her.
Benji Nakamura understands mental health meltdowns, a breakdown ended their old band and remade their life. Now, they’re running an indie label, writing songs, renovating their house, and helping their mom reboot her punk band.
They have it under control—if a certain chaotic singer would stop tilting Benji’s world on its axis. And if they didn’t secretly enjoy it.
When Angela is attacked by bigots, Benji spirits her away to their probably-not-haunted Sacramento mansion. Hidden away, the mutual attraction is too strong to resist.
But it’s not all black roses and orgasms. For two people with scarred pasts and sharp edges, love is a four-letter curse.
Benji and Angie might fit together better than they ever expected, but can this spark survive or will it be just another regret?
No Love in LA is a standalone (though it doesn't hurt to read the first two books) angsty contemporary rock star romance with an HEA and no cheating.

I loved reading the evolution of the relationship between Benji and Angie. They have been in the two previous books and you wanted to see their future too. Loved the revisit of all of the other characters and the teaser for Book #4. So excited for more stories of this eclectic group of people!
