ARC REVIEW

5⭐️
2.5🌶️ (in my opinion)

i absolutely fell in love with this book, i was captivated the first chapter, i’ve always loved a band romance since i read 5sos fanfic on wattpad😝

that cliffhanger 🫠🫠 i actually need the second book asap!

‘favourite quotes’

*part of me wants to march out there, press her to the wall, and crush my lips against hers, while the other part wants to cuss her out*

*does my slutty little crop top turn you on, trumpet?”


i absolutely hate second chance but the way k.m has written it is chef kiss 🤌🏼 done perfectly

This had me hooked from the beginning! Love the memory loss plot, it added so much mystery about why it happened to her. With multiple mmcs i cant help but to love one the most but all of the characters have their own background stories going and it made each and everyone so interesting! That ending had me gasping! Im so excited to find out more!

Oh my gosh!

Words can not describe how much I LOVE this book🔥

This is the first book in a long time I have finished within 24 hours and NEEDED more straight away.

The story between the FMC and the 4 MMCs is so beautiful curated that I was rooting for each and every one of them. The spice is a beautiful mix of 🤭, 🔥 and 🥺, it had me yearning to be next.

If you are a fan of a band and have a lil fantasy of your own, this book will have you on your knees 😉

3.75 ⭐️ whenever I’m in a reading slump romantic suspense is my go to! So that definitely made me excited to read this! A spicy why choose rockstar romance with a side of suspense sounded right up my alley!

Alara has big dreams of becoming a rockstar with her band, they finally get their shot at the big time. One night, one song, and one fight is all it takes to tilt her world upside down. So when the day comes for them to meet and sign with their new manager, Alara never shows. 2 years go by and Alara is struggling trying to regain years of memories she’s lost, meanwhile the band she thought she was making it to the big time with are a household name…only she doesn’t remember any of them. When she loses her job, she ends up getting a lucky break at an open mic night, not even remembering how she knows how to play the guitar. While now working at the bar with the open mic night she sees a mysterious man in the crowd watching her. Turns out he’s (Nix) the drummer for the band she was supposed to be making it big with..but he has no idea she’s the girl they refuse to discuss, because he came into the band after a devastating tragedy. After he sort of stalks her for a while he finally works up the courage to talk to her and one thing leads to the next. When the bands opening act quits Nix has the brilliant idea of introducing Alara to the band as a potential opening act. Only they have no idea she’s doesn’t remember them after thinking she ghosted them for 2 years.

I absolutely loved all of the characters in this book, we have our FMC Alara, Ender the broody lead singer who also had a little thing going on with Alara before she forgot all about him, Nix the golden retriever drummer and River and Lane who are a couple. So yes, this is MMFMM, second chance romance. The spice was spicing, and I absolutely loved the suspense element and was just waiting for the shoe to drop. All of the characters have trauma and a darker past that they’re all trying to heal from, I absolutely loved the bands group dynamic.

What I didn’t like was the plot progression was a little slow for me, Alara really just sort of jumped into situations without fully forming any thoughts, she’s lacking survival skills to say the least. The deeper issues and situations that came up were rushed and resolved a little quickly for my liking. The spice, while absolutely phenomenal, sort of took away from the plot. A lot of the book was just her thirsting for the entire band and dealing with conflicting emotions for all of them while worried about Nix’s feelings on the matter. I would have loved to see more of the suspense element, which we did get but it wasn’t until the very end of the book. I would have loved to have seen it sprinkled throughout the plot of the entire book since it didn’t feel like a romantic suspense, other than her amnesia, until the very end.

Thank you so much to KM Baker for allowing me to read this pre-release in exchange for my honest review. I will absolutely be reading book 2 for answers to all my burning questions!

 (I received an ARC copy, all opinions are my own)

Not at all what I was expecting, I thought I knew how the story would play out and I really glad it didn’t. The story centres around a band and when one of the members gets amnesia things get really complicated. The band are great I love all of them for different reasons and I can’t really talk about it because spoilers. But I will say I think Lane is my favourite. They all have their own personalities and baggage and depth. It does help that they were all freaking hot, I mean the spicy scenes were spicy and I ate up every minute. Especially since the boyfriend are boyfriends. 

The rest of the characters are kept at an arm’s length the author knows what she is doing, you never know how to trust or not. However I love her best friend Rayne and Gabby, I hope we get a bit more of them in the next book. 

The amnesia story is always something that makes me apprehensive, because sometimes they are predictable or you know when things are going to come back. However this story exceeded my expectations there and didn’t pay out how I thought it would, I did think I knew what the cliff hanger would be but that was not the case. The whole story is engaging and I can’t wait to see how things unfold in the next book. 

Overall the story was a mix of hilarious, tense, heart-breaking and with some really beautiful moments. It was easy to read and I could have happily read in one sitting. I think anyone who likes dark romance as well as should give this one a go. I am definitely going to check out some of her other books in the meantime. 

[Kimberley · Rating 5 out of 5]

It may appear I need to read more rockstar romance books as wow was this good!! Our book is a why choose which i absolutely love but it is quite messy in terms of Alara was in a band with River, Lane and Ender (Nix joins later) and we start on the night where everything changes and the band is about to get signed but on the day of the meeting Alara never shows.

Plot twist Alara had an "accident," which caused her to get retrograde amnesia and forget about everything, including the guys. Meanwhile, they make it big and are finally off on their break 2 years after the accident. Nix comes in here when he wants some time alone and wonders into the bar Alara works at (he doesn't know her at all and the person his bandmates have been cursing at since they started) obviously things end up happening between them and enter a relationship and which point the band's opener quits and Nix thinks Alara would be the perfect opener for them now.

You can guess things are not smooth sailing when the guys see her when she comes to prove herself, and it is pretty messy and tense in that scene. She ends up moving in, and the whole dynamic shifts. Although she has no memory of them, they do so keeping their cool was not the easiest. And then Nix turns around and says if she wants any of the other band mates, she can... It gets spicy at times, and it is utterly perfect.

Obviously, it can't be a K.M. Baker book without something going dreadfully wrong and leaving us on one hell of a cliffhanger. I need the next book now!! I loved this first book, and I can't wait to see where things lead in the next book!!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

“River, Lane, Ender, and Nix feel like my future. Maybe it’s time to stop being afraid of what that may mean.”

Ooooh, i loved this story! 🤌🏻 I always love to read the amnesia trope and i especially love when it’s well done 👏🏻 I haven’t dabbled in too many rockstar romances & I’m wondering now why that is?? Lol.

When Alara meets Nix at the bar where she works and sings during open mic nights, she finds out that he’s in a super famous band, and tbh she’s not all that impressed. Nix is determined to get Alara on stage and to have her recognized, but an idea comes to mind - he should have Alara open up for his band on their next tour. But when Nix introduces Alara to his band mates, tensions fly.. because what Nix doesn’t know is that Alara is the girl who broke all of their hearts 2 years ago when she mysteriously disappeared. But what’s even better is - the guys don’t know Alara was in a serious accident and has amnesia and doesn’t remember ANY of them.. How will the band navigate acting like they don’t know her and have been missing her for 2 years? Will it bring them closer than they ever were before? Or will it rip them apart from the inside? Or even better yet - is there something out there, lurking.. tied to Alara’s accident & more that she can’t remember? 👀

This book has a CRAZY cliffhanger & i cannot wait for book 2! 🖤🤌🏻 and also, Lane’s nicknames for Alara had me actually cackling throughout the book! 🤣🤌🏻👏🏻

3.75 Stars.

I would like to thank KM Baker for giving me the ARC of this for my honest thoughts and review.
This was truly an honor to be chosen.

I loved this book for the vibes of it- it was a book fully about a good time.

The only issue I really have is that this was marketed to me as a romantic suspense, and the suspense was only in the last ten pages.
So, I would say to a reader going forward know that this is just a smutty good time.

-Rockstar Romance
-Why Choose
-MMFMM
-Amnesia trope
-Lovable MMCs.

So, first and foremost I loved the characters. Lane and River are probably my favorites.
Each character is so lovable and well written!
The FMC has amnesia from an accident- and cannot remember her life much prior to the accident, and cannot remember what happened to her.

The plot was heavily focused on the men and their apartment- even though there was an entire world and plot outside of that. Most of the story takes place INSIDE one of their homes with her trying to sleep with one/all of the men. At 70% I did find myself saying, "GO OUTSIDE."
Because I truly wanted to know
-how her accident happened
-what was the accident
-"who did this to you?"
-Was Glen involved? ("who's Glen?")
-Why is Ender so tortured
-Who was the big guy at the end?
-How did they get her number?

I ended the book with more questions than I did answers!
I ended the book asking "What did THEY KNOW?"
Because this book focused entirely on the vibes and smex activity.
So, going into it KNOW that.

[Sarah Franklin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Into the End by K.M. Baker completely hooked me from page one and refused to let go. This why choose rockstar romance was addictive in the best way possible.

While this book trends toward dark romance, I would consider it on the lighter side of dark romance. Definitely still check the trigger warnings before reading.

I haven’t read many why choose romances, but the dynamics in this one kept me fully invested and constantly wanting more. And the spice? HOT and STEAMY. K.M. Baker knows exactly how to write tension and chemistry that leaves you begging for the next scene.

What really made this book stand out for me though was the storyline itself. The romantic suspense aspect kept me captivated the entire time, and I constantly needed to know what was going to happen next. The pacing kept me turning pages late into the night.

And that ending… the warning about the cliffhanger was not joking. WHAT A CLIFFHANGER. I already need book two because I am absolutely not okay after that ending.

Also, don’t skip the playlist that goes with this book. It fits the story perfectly and adds so much to the reading experience.

This book left me with the best kind of book hangover, and I already know I’ll be thinking about these characters for a long time.

[Teressa Oliverio · Rating 5 out of 5]

This story completely pulled me in from the start. I loved the slow burn and the way the mystery surrounding Alara’s lost memories unfolded piece by piece. Watching her navigate a life she can’t fully remember while still trying to do what she believes is right made her such an easy character to root for. Her innocence, compassion, and constant desire to put others first gave the story a strong emotional core.

One of my favorite parts was Nix and the way his feelings for Alara shined through every interaction. Even when she couldn’t remember everything, he understood the connection she shared with the band and never pushed her beyond what she was ready for. Their growing relationship was filled with tension, longing, and so much heart.

The dynamic between Alara and the members of Nowhere Forever was captivating. As memories resurfaced and secrets began to unravel, the story balanced romance, suspense, and emotion beautifully. The combination of fame, hidden truths, and an unknown threat kept me turning pages, eager to uncover what really happened. This was an addictive read with compelling characters, emotional depth, and a romance that was absolutely worth the wait

ARC Review

4 rockstars and 1 girl, I was hooked from the beginning! Into the End follows FMC Alara as she navigates and adjusts to her new life after a traumatic incident. Along the way, she just happens to end up entwined in a delicious predicament with not 1 but 4 rockstars, but not everything is as it seems.

Nix, Ender, River, and Lane all have their issues, some more than others, but each one is unique and adds their own twist on the situations they get themselves in. I enjoyed how each of the MMC's had their own way about them without being repetitive or generic.

The spice was tamed compared to some of the things I've read, but it was still enjoyable and tasteful. Also, the bits of comedy were a fun addition and worked so well, I'll never look at a saxophone the same way again!

I did want a bit more of a backstory on each of our mains, but I'm hoping that with the second book, it'll help fill in some gaps and explain things that were merely hinted at. The ending felt slightly rushed but I can overlook that since there is a second book on the way! Overall I enjoyed this and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

[Mags · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book the only downside is that it's only part 1 so I now have to wait god knows how long for part 2. i really hope that it's not too long.

I love the randomness of Nix meeting Alara. Her amnesia and the guys never mentioning her to him for me made the story that little bit more fun since as the reader we could see how some of it was going to play out before it happen.

I will say that I didn't like Glen from the beginning and I am totally convince that he has something to do with her getting hurt in the first place. I did jump between him and River's dad but I still think he set it up for some reason. I'm just not sure why.

Ender broke my heart a little between the lose of his brother and her going awol.
(kinda a spoiler so don't read if you don't want to know but when she's helping him do the dishes and sees his tulip tattoo and he can't tell her he knows that it's her favourite flower).

On the plus side normally when I read a book with this many characters / partners there is normally one that annoys me but I actually loved everyone of them.

[Dani · Rating 4 out of 5]

“If she shows interest in any of you, I won’t stop her.” Nix’s brows raise as he eyes each of us with a long sigh. “But none of you better hurt her again, or it will be the last thing you do.”

Nix was 🥵🥵
I loved him and his energy. I also love Lane and River. Ender sort of was a mixed bag for me. He had me hating him and then sort of warming up toward the end.
This was a why choose rockstar romance but it has a mystery playing in the background. I thought I had it figured out and I sort of still think I do…but also I lowkey am questioning so much.

The last 10% was insane and I am wondering where it is going. There was a lot revealed that made this feel like more than just the average RH and I loved that.

I’ve read a lot of rockstar or band style dark romance and romance but this one really is in my tops. The plot was there. The mystery kept me coming back and the spice was spicy. 🌶️

Definitely wanting book 2 IMMEDIATELY!

4-4.5 ⭐️

[Jessica · Rating 5 out of 5]

I devoured this book in one sitting and now I’m emotionally unwell in the best way. The chemistry between the main character and the band members was intense from the very beginning, and the “why choose” dynamic actually felt emotional and believable instead of forced. Each love interest had a distinct personality and connection with her, which made it impossible to pick a favorite. The backstage drama, tension, jealousy, and emotional vulnerability kept the story addictive the entire time.

And then that ending… absolutely criminal!! I was not prepared for that cliffhanger! The final chapters completely flipped everything upside down and left me desperate for the next book immediately. If you love possessive rockstars, found-family vibes, emotional tension, and a why choose romance that keeps escalating the stakes, this one is worth the emotional damage.

Into the End by K.M. Baker

I rarely start a book that I can’t put down do some other things and then come back to, but this was a book that I started in the afternoon and by 11 at night I was finished because I could not put it down.

I never realized I was a Rockstar Romance reader, but I really think I am now. This is a well written book that keeps you reading wanting to know what’s gonna happen next and then what’s gonna happen after that. This is Book 1 and I cannot wait for Book 2!!!

If you like any of these tropes:
Rockstar
Why Choose
Second Chance
Amnesia
Bi-Representation

Then you were going to love this book!! This is a book that I definitely recommend that you read!

[Dominique · Rating 5 out of 5]

Into the End is a rockstar why-choose romance that follows a band made up of four guys and one girl. Alara suffers an “accident” that leaves her with gaps in her memory of the previous few years. The story is chaotic in the best possible way, filled with excitement, heartbreak, love, loss, and plenty of spice. As she continues her writing/singing journey, pieces of her memories slowly start coming back, though not nearly enough to reveal the full truth. Every new discovery kept me wanting more, and just when I thought I was getting answers, the book ended on a suspenseful cliffhanger that left me needing the next book immediately. Thank you to the author for giving me the opportunity to read this book before the release date, I really enjoyed it!

[Mary Rose · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.75 stars

I appreciated where this was going, and I enjoyed the characters. I loved Nix most, and I mostly liked Alara. Her willingness to trust people instead of trusting her instincts bothered me, especially because of how she got amnesia. Lane and River are good together. Ender came across as very selfish, letting his insecurities guide his actions, and he has A LOT of growing and groveling to do.

The ending confused me. I don't understand the reaction; for me, it was an overreaction. BUT, on the plus side, I was diggin' River's protectiveness. I want to know how things shake out, so I'm awaiting their resolution and looking forward to seeing how touring goes with all this tension.

This is an ARC review :)

I LOOOVED this book so much!!!! Rockstar WHY CHOOSE?? romance??? But make it dark with a plot twist?? Yeah, sign me up!!! I ate this uppppp 🥰

This is very plot driven which I feel like hooks you in from the start, and the ending????? Wow, it leaves you wanting more!! I loved Lane and River, and Nix 😍🥹 sweet baby angel Nix. Ender… I’m still on the fence on, I like you but you gotta work on your communication skills babes 😂 I love that each character has a background, like they all come from something dark and unwell, it makes you connect with them more knowing what they went through.

Ugh, book one isn’t even out yet and here I am FEEEEENNNING for book two LMAOOO.

[Gabby Daley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love reading why choose books. This was a different one from most that I've read in that Alara knew most of the band members... or at least, she had known them before she was hurt and left with amnesia 2 years before.

Now they are all eager to keep her close without explaining why because it could cause her issues to find out before her mind is ready.

I was expecting something else to happen at the end and though I am incredibly eager to read the next book, I am thrilled that my fear didn't come to fruition.

I really enjoyed getting to know the various band members and their personalities and I'm excited to see how they all come together and how they handle the rest of the tour.

[Kristin 🩵 · Rating 3 out of 5]

The plot and story itself was good and something different that I’ve never read before. But it didn’t really hit the way I wanted it to. I felt like the dialogue between all of the characters felt very stiff/rehearsed and kept taking me out of the story. Everything also progressed with not even half a second of thought. Conflict? Resolution in the next sentence. I did love the characters themselves, and they all have very complex backgrounds that I’m looking forward to get into. And the spice was SPICING. I think I’ll definitely be giving the 2nd book a shot.

• rockstar romance • why choose • MMFMM • bi rep • amnesia • cliffhanger •

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Holy moly!

This is my first read from this author and I was hooked from the very first page! I was curious how the amnesia was going to play a part within the story and it was done really well.

Alara lost her memories two years prior to the beginning of this story. Nix, Lane, River and Ender are all perfect for her in their own individual ways well Ender needs to not be Ender for a moment to realise it but he’ll get there I’m sure of it. Her relationships with the four guys are building slowly and that cliffhanger!

I cannot wait to read book two because that ending took a turn I wasn’t ready for!

[Karson A · Rating 5 out of 5]

Okay wow! I loved it. Why choose! Rockstars yes please! The first book was so good in setting up the story for the rest of the series! I liked getting pov from each character! Very excited to see how it will play out! I was hooked from the prologue and whew that ending Jaw on the floor!

The details were amazing! I love how each mmc has a backstory that are all different to go along with their different personalities! That's hard to do when writing about multiple mmc but this author was able to capture that!

The spice i think was perfect for the plot in this book! It didn't take away it definitely added to it! I'm very excited for IT TO BE EXPLORED MORE! Full group effort next time!

I love that each of the characters have their connections to each other, but that they also have their own stories to tell as well.

I'm very interested to find out what Ender is hiding, because I think there's more to the contract. Also that cliffhanger left me in shock and had me wanting to throw my kindle because I needed more.

I'm just going to dive into this review 😅

Ender has some groveling to do thats for sure. I love Lane and all the musical instrument nicknames he gives Alara. River and Lane are so freaking cute! I just love them. Oh and Nix he's so thoughtful, caring and I can see why Alara falls for him so quickly. Alara annoyed me a bit for not trusting her gut... I was mentally screaming at her. I personally didn't find the ending super shocking, but I did find myself really wanting to know what happens next. I did find myself shocked a few chapters before the last two and on the edge of my seat.

Omg I absolutely devoured this read! I'm loving it so much. I was utterly defeated when we were left on a cliff hanger at the end. I need book two now!!!!!
Loved everything about this storyline and where it's going. The amnesia aspect within the plot, creating mystery and suspense, kept me on edge the entire time. The profiles and background of every single one of these characters was captivating to keep me hooked and wanting more. All dealing with past history and trauma to where it places them in their life now. I can't wait to discover more about each one of these band members. The playful banter between them and the spicy tension within the circle, I'm sooo here for it!!
Loved the writing style in this read, keeping me invested the whole time, can't wait for the next one.

What can I say, K.M. Baker did it again. This story had me from the beginning.

Alara with the angelic voice, with a band before they make it big. Something terrible happens, and she is left with amnesia.

Two years down the road changes everything for her and as the memories continue to come back, what is she going to recall?

The story does end on a cliffhanger, but I am so ready for the next part of the story! It cannot come soon enough!

[Naj_ana_reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow. The fluffy on this one. I can’t wait for the next book.

It was so good. Alara is finding her way after losing part of her memories after an accident. Life is taking a turn for the better in her personal life. She meets Nix and find a connection with him but life as a way of catching up. Secrets will start unfolding. Flashbacks are coming back and lies will come to the surface.

Can Alara get of memories back without losing her life in the process?

This story follow Alara, Ender, and their band Nowhere Forever. One night, their lives change forever.
