From the time that she was a little girl Skye has had her life planned out. She was going to be her own boss, marry the man of her dreams, have a few kids, and build a loving home. The only problem is that the man of her dreams is really a nightmare.
Have you ever had that one person you were so blinded by that you couldn't see them for who they really were? Well that's who Ian is to Skye. He is everything she ever wanted, but when his sins come to light will she see him in a way she never has before?
Just when it feels like her world is falling apart Cree walks in and turns her life upside down. He seems to know her better than those she's known for most of her life and has her changing her plans with each smile he aims at her.
Will she ride this new crazy wave with Cree or will she settle for what she thought she always wanted with Ian?

You know what? I really liked this story, and initially, I was all kinds of WTF is this sh#$%? Real talk! I am an emotional reader, meaning, I take what I read to heart (while still maintaining a sense of reality that yeah, this is fiction). When I’m drawn to a character, I instantly care about them, and when another character does them dirty, and my favorite character allows it, I am on the other side of my Kindle going into orbit! Yup, this is one of those stories!
Skye and Ian are best friends. Skye has been in love with Ian since they were teenagers in junior high school, but Ian is douche. He uses Skye emotionally because he knows she’ll always be there for him emotionally, and later on physically. And she allows it! This story starts off on a very frustrating note in this, but I’m telling you, it gets better!
Skye goes through college life allowing Ian to continue to manipulate her until one fateful meeting of a handsome up-and-coming rock star named Max (aka Cree). Cree is a rocker in every sense of the word-swagged out and tatted up. He takes an immediate liking to Skye, and she’s flattered by the attention cause ol’ dirty dog Ian sure ain’t giving her none. AND HERE IS WHERE THE STORY SHIFTS. DRAMATICALLY!
When Skye has finally had enough of Ian’s ish and dumped him, she does something impulsive and I-didn’t-see-that-coming. How will she and Cree navigate this new life together? How will Skye adjust to life on the road as the ultimate rock star groupie? And how will she handle all the hoes that come with the job? This story is a very realistic portrayal of the rock star life and how relationships are sustained-or not-when you’re in love with a rocker. How will a rock star handle being tied to one woman? We get a first-hand account of it all, and it's eye-opening.
My only gripe about this story is all the multiple names for one character! Skye had so many, I could barely keep up. Cree started referring to her as Bianca after he discovered her middle name, and on more than one occasion, I found myself asking “Who the hell is Bianca?” All the band members had their own individual nicknames for her (Side note: I thought it was really cool how the author tells us how each band member earned their nicknames). Cree was first introduced as Max (His nickname origin had me like 0_0). All-in-all, very good story. Click it up!
This book was great. My first time reading this author and I was impressed. The beginning started a little slow and u couldn't figure out where she was going. It soon had me turning pages and not able to put the book down. Great characters and their development in the story was great. Good job!!!
Saying I enjoyed this book would be an understatement, I actually stay up all night reading this little gem.
It give me just enough anguish to fall apart with the characters when needed, my goodness to say I have been looking for that feeling in the last 8 books I've read would be an understatement but I glad someone finally got it right! I loved Max and Skye aka Cree and Bianca, actually I enjoyed all the members of the band and the way that they loved Skye... oh the ending just made my freaking day all the way, I was smiling so hard my freaking face hurt.
Now I will add that I didn't get deep into the book until Skye left for vegas.. Let me explain. I didn't like the fact that she was so...( looking for the right word) naive up until a little while after being in Vegas. Like seriously I understand maybe not understanding much in 9th grade but at 20 you should have locked into a little of that woman's intuition by then... if it wasn't so late when I was reading I would have literally been screaming at my tablet because Ian was so obvi it made my stomach hurt and best believe I rolled my eyes hella hard.
One last thing that bothered me...or I should say I wasn't a fan of... the word cooch... I am not sure what would have been a good sub word but that words seems I don't know kinda gross (and I have read a lot of adults books so nothing shocks me anymore) like dirty in a way. Maybe it's just me and not being a fan of the word.
NEVERTHELESS this book is fab and I will be recommending to friends and checking out some more of this Cassie Maria's books!
Just wow!!! At times I could just slap Skye for being stupid but I could understand her obsession I guess. But Cree...I just loved him he knew that he wanted her from the get go. The rest of the band was awesome also. I enjoying reading their story
I can't give enough thumbs up and high 5's to this novel. If I just had to give a down side it would be the age factor of the characters. It's almost a recipe for a not so realistic HEA
I didn't know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. In the beginning, the tone seemed juvenile but as the story progresses, it all came together.
