Everything

by Erin Noelle

Music was part of my DNA, pumping hard through my veins, resonating deep within my bones. Not surprising, considering my dad was a global rock star and my mom had the voice of a fallen angel.

With my twin sister by my side in our indie-rock duo, Singed Wings, we were ready to finally see our name in lights when we opened for the hottest act to sell out stadiums – Jobu’s Rum Summer Reunion Tour.

The life I’d always wanted was finally within my reach. All I had left to do was finish out my last semester of high school.

But there was one problem: Ms. Sloan, the new art history teacher.

The same Ms. Sloan I’d met as Belle, the sexy little pixie who’d captivated me at a New Year’s Eve concert last year.

The same Ms. Sloan who’d owned nearly every one of my thoughts since that night.

The same Ms. Sloan whose class I was in danger of failing.

With my dream gig dangling just on the other side of that cap and gown, all of my focus should’ve been on my school work and improving my music as I prepared for my big shot to rock the world…

But I never expected her to rock mine first… and to change everything.

ARC provided by author in exchange for an honest review



A virgin rockstar who falls in love with his high school teacher!!!! Ummm...yes please!!!! More like gimme! If I could hug and fan girl over Erin Noelle right now, I would do so in an instant. Seriously, Ms. Noelle has proven to her readers and to myself that she is an amazing and talented author who continues to deliver swoonworthy romance that will make any hearts flutter and fall in love. And boy oh boy did she ever have me craving for more of my favorite virgin rock star, Everett.



Forbidden romance. Check! Student-Teacher Romance. Check! Hot rocker. Check! A lovable and sexy virgin hero. Double Check! And a romance that will have you singing and praising Erin Noelle for more. Big Fat Check! As you can see, this book has everything that you would want for in a romance and so I think it’s perfectly fitting that Erin Noelle aptly titled this book EVERYTHING.

Everything introduces readers to a heroine name Belle, who moved to Texas to start a new career and life. On her first day in Texas, her friend and her husband drags her out to go to a bar for some drinks. Well completely unbeknownst to her, Belle found herself staring at a gorgeous man on stage. Sparks are flying. Lust is in the air. And sexual tension is off the charts. And soon Belle finds herself making out and on the receiving end of tasting bliss and pleasure. But this hot sexual encounter was cut short, when mystery man’s sister came looking for him to be back on stage.

On her first day of teaching, Belle Sloan’s world comes to an abrupt standstill. Sitting in her classroom is the sexy rock star. And this sexy rock star is 17 years old and her student. Stunned, embarrassed, and a little shock, Belle tries to avoid Everett but he will have none of it. Everett makes it known to Belle that this connection brewing between them is something that neither of them can stop. This connection is strong. Magnetizing. Hypnotic. A moth to the flame. Call it whatever you want but THIS THING BETWEEN THEM IS EVERYTHING that they both have been searching for.

“The age-old battle of head versus heart warred inside me, but when my eyes fluttered open, I realized there was never really a decision to be made. In the end, I didn’t want to live with the regret of not taking the chance, and love was always worth the risk.”

When Everett finally makes it clear to Belle that he ain’t no ordinary teenager but a real man who has lived and seen the world and knows what he wants, and what he wants is Belle Sloan. Everett is no lost boy because this man should I say is career driven and the only thing that this Peter Pan is looking for is his own Tinkerbelle that he can sail away to Neverland. As Belle finally gives in to Everett, they begin a secret love affair. A love affair that is everything. A romance that is built on love, passion, and two souls finding their perfect match. But what happens when Belle’s ex comes to the picture and a misunderstanding ensues, will Everett’s jealousy be his downfall? And will this rockstar be finding himself singing another tune of heartbreak? Or will he be playing the right chords and melodies to win back the girl that is everything to him?

Erin Noelle has strummed all the right chords and notes as she perfectly brought a story that has everything from forbidden romance to theme that love is everything and so much more. Love is worth taking the chance and love has no boundaries and so if you are ready to embark on a love story that has everything from raw emotions, a sexy story line, and of course a love that truly captures that love is worth taking a risk then look no further than this book. Be sure to fall in love with Ms. Noelle’s heartfelt and meaningful prose.

Everything is the story of the son of the main characters in Erin Noelle’s Book Boyfriends Series but it can be read as a stand-alone and I read it without having any idea about the series.

This is the mixture of both rock-star romance and teacher/student taboo.

Everett and his twin sister, Ashlynn Templeton have their own rock band called Singed Wings and they have a regular gig at the Empty’s Bar owned by their parents Scarlett and Mason. As soon as Everett and Ashlynn graduate, they will go on a nine-month tour with their parents during which they will do the opening show in the concerts of his father’s band. Everett is 17 years old but he sounds more like a mature young man than a teenager. He is grounded, humble and responsible. Unlike his classmates, he doesn’t go to crazy parties or put himself in trouble. He is well aware of the pitfalls of being famous and he acts carefully not wanting any bad reputation by getting drunk or getting involved in stupid adventures.



On New Year’s Eve, while he is on stage, he sees this beautiful and gorgeous girl and instantly he is hooked on her. He feels something strong and something deep. The feeling is mutual.

Belle is a 25 year old young woman who is tiny and who looks younger than her age. She has recently moved to this city and is trying to forget her regretful past relationship.



As soon as Everett sees Belle, he cannot take his eyes from her and Belle cannot take her eyes from the rock star on stage either, who she thinks must be at least 21 because he is singing in a bar. Their instant connection continues after the concert is over and they mess around in his truck at night before the count down. But then, she feels embarrassed by her reaction to him, and flies away without giving him her surname or number.

The next time they see each other is on the first day of the second semester of school in class, Belle as the new Art History teacher and Everett as the senior student.

Yes... what a shock for the two of them. Neither of them was able to forget what they felt that night... And, unfortunately, the feeling is still there, as strong as the first time while they are now looking at each other among all these students.



From then on, things get complicated as you can imagine and just as you think the story is going somewhere predictable as in most teacher-romance books, it goes somewhere else. The angst and the drama in this story is caused by some unpredictable events. So, bear in mind that the story doesn’t go where you assume it may go. no scandal at school


All in all, my feelings about their love story are as follows:

They were a very sweet couple and they were very hot together. They developed deeper feelings for one another so their connection was not only physical but also emotional. Besides, they shared the same tastes and sense of humor and they complemented each other. Everett being more mature than his age, and Belle both looking and acting younger than her age made them look like a matching couple. Seeing how happy and how much in love they were, I didn’t mind the age difference or the teacher/student taboo.

They were Tinker Bell and Peter Pan for me…



I normally never judge anything other people may call as taboo or forbidden but this is me. If two people love each other, I don't care about anything else. But if you aren’t comfortable with the idea of younger hero, older heroine, or their social status, maybe this book isn’t for you.

What I really was not OK about this love story can be summarized in two points:

1. I believed in their relationship until Everett made some big mistakes. His actions towards the end made me think that he was not as mature as I first thought. But maybe he acted like that because he was super alpha not because he was immature, I don’t know for sure... I am not a person who can easily forgive so I don’t know if I would have been as easy as Belle in forgiving him. don’t worry, there is no cheating involved, just some misunderstandings and misbehavior

2. More importantly, I really was not OK about the fact that he was a virgin and she was his first… That made me really uncomfortable… If you are going to end up with someone, this person should be your last rather than your first… just to be sure that they are the right one. That made me suspect the future of their relationship and their future happiness even though the book and their love story has a happy end.




All in all, it was an enjoyable read; fun, emotional and as hot as sin.

Maybe these quotations from the book will give you an idea about how they feel...

Luckily for me, I had a guitar in my hand and a microphone in front of my face. I was in my element. I could fuck her through my music before my hands ever touched her. But, God, did I want to touch her. And kiss her. And feel her all around me.
I’m losing my damn mind.

***

My lips grazed hers once, twice, three times, before murmuring, “I’m falling hard, beautiful.”
“I’m already there to catch you, rockstar.”

***

A firm believer that everything happened for a reason, I wouldn’t accept our first meeting at Empty’s and then her turning out to be my teacher as pure coincidence. She showed up in my life for a reason, and I was determined to figure out what it was.

***

“Just let it go, rockstar,” she whispered, wearing a sad smile. “Life’s all about timing, and it’s not our time.”

***

It was illegal, unethical, and morally wrong. But I didn’t give a fuck about any of that…

***

Watching her watching me in the mirror, I brought them to my lips and sucked them clean. “Do I make myself clear on what’s happening here, Ms. Sloan?”

***

I was completely taken aback by the lengths he’d gone for me. For us. Proving to me that he was worth the risks. Love was always worth it.

***

I followed the second star to the right and went straight on ‘til morning.

**

Better than good, rockstar... Always better than good.

I love the Book Boyfriend series by Erin and was so excited to read about Mason & Scarlett's offspring. This story falls into the forbidden romance category and I was freaking out that the couple's relationship was going to be discovered. That is the most exciting part about stories like this, it always feels like I am the one sneaking around then I get all caught up in the thrill of getting away with it.

Everett and Ashlynn are following in the footsteps of their dad Mason and have their own band Singed Wings. Mason's band Jobu Rum are soon to embark on a world concert tour and have asked Singed Wings to be their opening act. This is an exciting opportunity for them and once they get their last semester at school over with they will be hitting the road.

New Year's Eve at Empty's bar is one that will change Everett's life. They are performing as part of the celebrations to see in the New Year, their family owns the bar and they often sing there, trying out new material and a few covers to keep the crowd happy. That night Everett has one of those moments you often read about, his eyes meet those of a gorgeous petite, pixie like girl. Her name is Belle and she is completely drawn to this gorgeous rock star with the intense stare that seems to be directed at her.

Everett and Belle share a very steamy moment together before they part ways, forgetting to swap numbers and they both assume they will never see each other again, whilst both hoping that they do. There is good news and bad news on that hopeful thought... the good news is that they do indeed see each other again but the bad news is that it is because Belle turns out to be Everett's new art history teacher at school.

Needless to say, this causes a slight problem. They are both highly attracted to each other, Everett has nothing to lose in pursuing something with Belle and she has everything to lose. She seems powerless to his charm however and try as she might, she cannot resist this gorgeous guy with an old soul. It is wrong on so many levels but it feels so right too.

I loved getting pulled into all the drama and angst of this complicated story. Was so nice to get glimpses of Mason & Scarlett too. Really enjoyed this.

[Wil Loves Books! · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a taboo/forbidden student-teacher romance, but yet doesn't feel like one. Everett is Mason and Scarlet's kid from the book boyfriends series. He falls for his teacher, who he meets and hooks up with before they knew she would be the teacher. The story is good, there's tons of chemistry between the main characters, she acts like a teenager a lot and he sounds very mature for his age, he's super alpha. Yet, he can be extremely immature at times. Anyway, this started super hot and then it kinda fizzled, some of my book peeves like stupid drawn out misunderstandings showed up and I kinda lost interest. I also think that as far as forbidden, student/teacher romances go this was weak, everything kinda wrapped up nicely in a pretty bow and every one was happy together forever, there was no thrill and no repercussions. I would've preferred something awesome along the lines of the Education of Caroline, Nocturne or Dark Notes. So, it was just ok.

The age-old battle of head versus heart warred inside me, but when my eyes fluttered open, I realized there was never really a decision to be made. In the end, I didn’t want to live with the regret of not taking the chance, and love was always worth the risk.

Everything by Erin Noelle
4 stars!!

“Life is all about timing, and it’s not our time.”

Well, after finishing Everything by Erin Noelle I was left with a grin from ear to ear, despite the journey this author takes us on to get there Erin Noelle never fails to deliver that award winning smile at the end. Her stories are always beautiful, with the cutest characters, men to swoon after and heroines you want to be best friends with and Everything had it all.

“Don’t make promises when you’re happy or decisions when you’re mad.”

Everything is a spin off from The Book Boyfriend series and can be read as a standalone. This book covers Everett, who is the son of Mason and Scarlett who we met originally in Metamorphosis. Everett was not your typical teenager, having been brought up with the fame surrounding his dad, he was an old soul, old before his time, grounded, responsible and musically talented. He was well aware of the pitfalls of fame and fortune and was adamant to keep himself on the straight and narrow, no partying, no drunken debauchery, no groupies…he wasn’t a square by any stretch but he didn’t want to kill his career before it had even started.

Everett and his twin sister, Ashlynn have their own band called Singed Wings, supported by their parents they are making a name for themselves and are both super talented. They have a regular gig at the bar and the locals love them. It is while playing on stage that Belle first catches Everett’s attention and from that moment, the boy was a goner. Everett’s eye had never been caught, no one had ever made him want to take a detour from his path that he had firmly laid, but Belle made him want to do everything.

Belle was adorable, she was tiny at five foot, but what she lacked in height she made up for in personality. She was her own person, with a dress sense to match, she was a cute little pixie. Belle had been burned in the past, badly and was now starting a new life to escape everything she wanted to leave behind. New state, new job, new life. In the interim she is staying with her best friend (their banter was hilarious) until she can find her feet and it is on their first night out for New Year’s that Everett catches her eye. Having sworn off men for years she cannot believe her eye is twitching and with a new found confidence she goes in search of her “Rockstar.”

“We can talk about a lot of things, Linds, but I draw the line at my juices. A girl’s gotta keep some things to herself.”

Later on

“…Lindsey didn’t need to worry any longer. My juice was freshly squeezed as of ten seconds ago.”

Everett is nearly eighteen and Belle is twenty-five, even though neither look their age with Belle looking younger than her years and Everett looking older. The instant connection that these two have was tangible, it radiated off the pages and sizzled and burned the more you read. This wasn’t an insta love, but definitely a touch of insta lust, but these two take their time to get to know one another first and foremost and the course of their relationship is one huge fact finding mission in more ways than one. After that night on New Year’s they both couldn’t stop thinking about the other but the next time they meet is the biggest shock of all…Art History lesson, period six.

“Art History had never been an interest of mine, but I was about to pay more attention in a class than I ever had before. I was ready to earn my A, and with any luck, I’d later be rewarded with an O.”

Yes, this is the forbidden romance, student/teacher, older woman, younger man but this was just the cutest read ever. As I said above, Everett was an old soul, he was responsible, knew how to treat a woman and when he fell, he fell and loved hard. He had kept himself closely guarded and to see him open up was absolutely stunning. The tender moments had me swooning, my heart melting and a smile from ear to ear, but with any forbidden romance there are hurdles.

“It’s time to grow up, Peter Pan. This isn’t fucking Neverland.”

Erin Noelle delivers a beautiful read that was totally captivating, the slow burn only adding fuel to an already raging inferno of want. I was desperate for these two to beat the odds. Their relationship was more than just physical, their similarities, their quirks, their senses of humour only added to their mental and emotional connection and that is what really bled through the pages. While the age gap should have been their biggest hurdle it paled into insignificance. It was great to catch up with Mason and Scarlett too and only added to this being a really satisfying read. I am hoping that Everett’s twin gets a book two, she is the total opposite to her brother and I bet this whirlwind would be an eye-opening read!

I have to tell you .... I was REALLY skeptical about this story. I almost didn't blog for it. Almost. And it was actually Everett's age that held me back. This is a romance story after all so there's gonna be a HEA and the practical side of my brain was sating I was going to be eye-rolling thru it because he's only a senior in high school. But at the last minute I threw caution to the wind and went for it. and WOW WOW WOW. I was hypnotized by this story from page one. God Almighty, Everette was done SO well! His characterization was ridiculous true to his age and the journey just felt right. More than that. It was done right. The mistakes. The hurdles. All of it ... true to life and believable and relatable. It's been a minute since I was his age but I still remember all those stumbling blocks! WELL DONE, Erin Noelle!

Next I'm gonna tell you what sealed the deal on this being a ridiculously flawless story .... the love. It was hot. The attraction was immediate, but there was nothing insta about their love. Nothing in the least. It was a well executed journey you felt to the tip of your toes. It was a simmering growth between two people who truly cared for one another. Well played again, Erin, well played!

I don't want to make it sound like this was a rainbows and gumdrops story, because it was far from it ... it had drama and it had angst but the sweet growth and trust, friendship and love far out-weighed any of it. And it made the ride that much more worth it. So get on this ride right now and one-click this bad boy .. you won't regret it! #TRUST

5 stars Heavenly Long

I love a good forbidden romance. It’s one of my favorite romantic tropes, so I was super excited to dive into this one. This book did not disappoint and definitely delivered on the sexual tension between these two in spades!!!



Everett is an aspiring musician and is given the opportunity to go on tour, with his twin sister, as the opening act for their father’s band. All he has to do is make it through the last few months of his senior year and then he can finally start living the life he has always wanted. So of course, things aren’t going to be that easy.




“We were going on tour. All over the world. Sold-out crowds. The best venues. I could play music day and night and get paid for it. My dream.”

I loved Everett’s character. He’s very grounded and humble. He is very much an old soul in a 17-year-old’s body. While he is playing in his parent’s bar one night, he sees a woman that he immediately feels a connection with. He feels things he’s never felt for someone in his life.



“I could fuck her through my music before my hands ever touched her. But, God, did I want to touch her. And kiss her. And feel her all around me.”



Belle is starting life over in a new city with a new job at the local high school. All she wants is to move on from a painful past and start fresh. After her run-in with Everett, she can’t stop thinking about him. Imagine her surprise when her almost hook-up walks in her classroom on her first day on the job.



“Time stopped. The earth stopped spinning on its axis. The ground fell out from under me. And it happened all at once. The moment my eyes landed on Everett. My rockstar.”



Clearly, these two can’t possibly act on their attraction again…But desire is a tough beast to deny. I appreciated the slow burn between the characters. It wasn’t about just the physical, I could truly feel how these two cared for one another and how their similarities bonded them. Erin’s writing just draws me in and I devoured this book. I couldn’t wait to find out how the situation would resolve itself.



“It was illegal, unethical, and morally wrong. But I didn’t give a fuck about any of that…”

Erin Noelle's Everything is just, well EVERYTHING! It hits so many delicious tropes - student/teacher, rockstar, virgin hero... seriously how could this not be fantabulous?

Everything is a standalone spin-off of Erin's very popular Book Boyfriend Series. i know you are wondering, is this a true standalone or do I need to read BBS first? Everything is a true standalone, you won't feel lost or confused AT ALL if you start here. However if you have read BBS you will be happy to see the characters here. And if you haven't, no worries... but, they are AMAZING and you should put on your TBR ;)

Erin's writing, as always, is just beautiful. It is so easy to get lost in her words. And seriously, she can write sex like no other. Their scenes are HOT, HOT, HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!

You will fall in love with Everett and Belle and be rooting for them to be able to figure everything out. They are written so real, you feel as if you could see them around you. You want to be friends with them. Well, let me backup... Everett isn't your typical high school student - he is an old soul, so seeing him with his teacher, while 'forbidden' is very believable. (Just cause I figure that may be a concern of some of you.) You will be swept away with their love story. I love how Erin took the time to develop their relationship. Also the fact that she incorporated his family, and telling them about their relationship was huge for me. We often just see the forbidden love be restricted to the couple, letting in the family showed how serious these two were.

I highly recomend this book. Fans of the Book Boyfriend Series are going to be ecstatic when they get this baby in their hands. Rock stars, forbidden love, a virgin Hero, and enough feels to have you all over the place! Noelle strummed every note perfectly, and this book was just Everything!

[Michelle Schroer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Yay! I'm an absolute sucker for student/teacher books! It's just so ... taboo!! So forbidden! This book had EVERYTHING and more! It was "better than good"!

"It was as if the universe had ganged up on me, dangling her right in front of my face, knowing I couldn't resist, then giving me a tiny taste of the sweetest damn fruit that existed, only to tell me I couldn't have it. Forbidden."

I felt like fate had brought them together. There were events that happened in both characters lives that had them running into each other. First, as bar patron and singer. And second - teacher and student!

I loved Everett! He wasn't like must high school boys I've read. He was family oriented - having a twin sister and a band with her. He was hot and sexually forward although he was a VIRGIN! I found him lovable and witty. I found myself very intrigued by Everett. He seemed much older than his 17/18 year old self!

Belle was just as fascinating to read! She was spunky and smart! She didn't jump head first into the secret affair. She pulls back from him.

"Just let it go, rockstar," she whispered, wearing a sad smile. "Life's about timing, and it's not our time."

But as time moves on - she can't stop the building attraction. The list in the air everything he's in her classroom.

Belle and Everett had this instant connection. And even though most books tell the same story in these instances, I could feel it through the words of this brilliant author! The story is told in dual POV which gave me great insight to the characters as they developed. I also adored the references to Peter Pan, Neverland, and Tinkerbelle!!

[Kristann Monaghan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Let me start off by saying that Everything by Erin Noelle gave me everything I wanted out of a rockstar romance. Chemistry, forbidden love, secrets, angst and HOT HOT HOT sex scenes!! Pretty sure I will never look at Peter Pan the same again. Everett and Belle are fantastic characters, who have immediate chemistry and you end up rooting for them even though it is a forbidden romance. When Everett discovers Belle is his new teacher, there begins the angst and the desire ramps up from there. Never have I wanted to see two people together even though they shouldn't be! Everett is a perfect speciman of an Alpha Male and I adored Belle. She is spunky and fun even knowing she shouldn't want Everett the way she does. Erin Noelle spins a fantastic tale that made me immediately download her Book Boyfriend series (which I had not read before this one even though this is a spin off, it is a standalone). I can only hope we see more in the Singed Wings series as I am dying for Ashlynn's story! Pick this steamy book up!

Loved it!!
It's throw back Erin at its finest
Mason and Scarlett's son- what more could you ask for. He's mostly Mason, with a tinge of Scarlett and I love him!!
Everett is in a band win his twin sister Ashlynn, named Singed Wings- and while performing at Emptys the family bar he sees Belle, a spunky little Tinkerbell Sprite of a woman, and he can't shake her- she gets under his skin... But something forbidden about her lurks.
Belle is the new Art History teacher at the local school, she's moved away from her home to Houston- and she goes out with her friends and see Everett- everything about him screams Rockstar and she loves it- until she finds out she will be his new teacher
I freaking LOVED this book, five stars all around for the new Templeton generation. Ash lovers will still really enjoy this book!!

If you have read the Boyfriend Series by Erin you will love Everything because it's about Everett Mason & Scarlett's son. Right from the beginning I was hooked I had to know what was gonna happen and the connection that Everett and Bella has from the beginning you could feel it while you were reading. Everett & Bella being together won't be easy, but will love be enough? Another amazing story and can't wait for Ashlynn's story next

I have to admit, I have a weakness for student/teacher romances and this one was right on the money! The chemistry was hot and Everett was the perfect mix of sweet, sexy, and cocky.

WOW!! JUST WOW!!! I don't have words for this. There was angst and romance and a rockstar hero who was all alpha male (I admit I kind of felt like a perv at first for finding him hot since I have children his age LOL) and his sweet Tinker Bell who loved him with all her heart. Just go read this!

[Rain · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a coming of age, rockstar, forbidden romance and it stressed me out! I was constantly worried they were going to get caught! This was a spin-off from The Book Boyfriend series, but I haven’t read those and it didn’t seem to matter for this story. (Plus I don’t know if I want to read another love triangle)

I was completely taken aback by the lengths he’d gone for me. For us. Proving to me that he was worth the risks. Love was always worth it.

I thought it was such a refreshing take that he was a teenage rockstar on the brink of making it big when she meets him. I also liked that he was a virgin, you don’t see many of those, especially in rockstar books. It was a little cringy that he’s 17 and she’s 25, but once I started reading it, their ages didn’t seem to matter when they were together.

The age-old battle of head versus heart warred inside me, but when my eyes fluttered open, I realized there was never really a decision to be made. In the end, I didn’t want to live with the regret of not taking the chance, and love was always worth the risk.

I really liked the art history angle. La Nymphe Surprise by Edouard Manet was a great tie-in for this book. (Also a subject of an older teacher falling for her younger student.)

The obligatory drama near 70% in to force our lovers apart was ridiculous. I couldn’t decide if it was because this was our H finally showing his age, or the author needing to create drama.

Side note, this advice is perfect.

Don’t make promises when you’re happy or decisions when you’re mad.

Like deciding to get bangs when your PMSing.

What I really disliked, those Peter Pan jokes/nickname. Also, the band name, Singed Wings. Just say that out-loud a few times.

Music was part of my DNA, pumping hard through my veins, resonating deep within my bones. Not surprising, considering my dad was a global rock star and my mom had the voice of a fallen angel.

With my twin sister by my side in our indie-rock duo, Singed Wings, we were ready to finally see our name in lights when we opened for the hottest act to sell out stadiums – Jobu’s Rum Summer Reunion Tour.

The life I’d always wanted was finally within my reach. All I had left to do was finish out my last semester of high school.

But there was one problem: Ms. Sloan, the new art history teacher.

The same Ms. Sloan I’d met as Belle, the sexy little pixie who’d captivated me at a New Year’s Eve concert last year.

The same Ms. Sloan who’d owned nearly every one of my thoughts since that night.

The same Ms. Sloan whose class I was in danger of failing.

With my dream gig dangling just on the other side of that cap and gown, all of my focus should’ve been on my school work and improving my music as I prepared for my big shot to rock the world…

But I never expected her to rock mine first… and to change everything.

Review:
“Especially those black combat boots. A contradiction to her small size and bubbly personality, she somehow made them the sexiest thing ever. They were the first thing I’d noticed that afternoon when I’d walked into class, and immediately, my mind had raced to the night we’d met and what we’d done while she wore them.”

5 everything stars!! Yep, Erin has done it again!!

Excuse the pun, but this book is literally “Everything!” I loved this book so much, I started it and finished it in the same day. I loved the storyline being reversed, Ms. Sloan is the teacher and Everett is the student. Yes, it has it’s taboo feeling to it, but it was told so well! I know most people will see that he’s in high school and she’s the teacher and be turned off, but you really need to read the book and give it a chance because it’s so much more than that! It’s a sexy, beautiful love story, that’s full of heart!

So, I will have to say it… When Erin Noelle mentioned that she would be writing a spinoff book to her famous Book Boyfriend series I inwardly cringed. How, oh how, could she possibly out do my already passionate feels about anyone from this series. Could it even compare to the absolute epicness that she’s already created? I’m happy to tell you that Scarlett and Mason’s son Everett certainly doesn’t disappoint one tiny bit!

Everett is the son of rock star legend Mason and Scarlett who we all fell in love with in the Book Boyfriend series. Although this book is a spinoff series, you don’t have to read Scarlett and Mason’s story to pick up on this liquefyingly hot, sexy read. In this student/teacher romance, Noelle not only delivers the heat, but she almost burns up your ovaries with Everett. He is sex on a stick, H-O-T alpha male who knows what or I should say WHO he wants- Belle. Belle has no clue her year would start of with a bang in the back of a pickup. She was even more shocked when the driver of that very pick up was in the first row of her class. From that moment on Noelle gives us a slow burn of chemistry ridden angst, desire, and forbidden romance that has you crossing your legs and squirming in your chair.

Now with all talks of heat, passion and love aside, Noelle also delivered one hell of a non-traditional storyline. Noelle never ceases to amazing me with her writing technique by taking a forbidden topic and spinning her story in such a way that you find yourself justifying these characters feelings and emotions. It’s not really that bad, right? Her attention to character development, connection and passion always draws me in as a reader. I can only hope that we continue to hear more about Singed Wings, Ashlynn and keep this already amazing spinoff going.

Review: (Arc provided) http://triciaciak.blogspot.com/

5 stars!

I honestly can't say I didn't have reservations about the age of the hero in this book but as I began to read I realized what a mature seventeen year old he was and I realized how the age didn't bother me at all. In fact I found myself thinking about how hot and sexy this kid was. I mean he said some fan worthy things. I wished the seventeen year old's when I was in high school knew how to talk like that. ;)

I'm a sucker for a good student/teacher romance and I haven't quite read one like this before, first...Everett (H) was the student which I'm not accustomed to. Second...the hero was a virgin. Third...he wasn't a bad boy trouble maker. So as you can see this story was different and took on a totally different direction than I thought it would. It isn't your stereotypical student/teacher romance. It is forbidden and totally delicious.

This book had it all, everything I'm looking for in a romance. I love rock stars, I love forbidden romance, I love a little dirty talk, I love some angst and I love strong characters. Now I won't say they didn't make mistakes and they were strong all the time but they knew what they wanted but had to try and figure out how to get there.

Another thing I loved about this book is that all the scenarios I expected to happen didn't. I won't get into that because of spoilers but I was pleasantly surprised how everything unfolded.

This book was really well written and it had me rooting for a relationship that is considered taboo. If you are a fan of student/teacher romances don't pass this one up it will suck you in from the beginning and you won't put it down until the end. I loved it!

Everything is a stand alone book about a rockstar to be Everett Templeton, son of the famous Jobu Rum's lead Mason Templeton and his Angel Scarlett Templeton and their love story is very much known in their Book Boyfriend series. Together with Arabelle Marie Sloan, a history art professor, who flew all the way to Houston to live a new life and build her own future, the book is all I wanted it to be.

I admit, I am not very much of a fan of such genre of book but I read books of it once in a while. Once in a while means if Erin Noelle will release a new book. Only Erin can make me read this kind of book because she is so great and she delivers the story in a sexiest way possible. I love how she writes and how she stirs up emotions within me. I love how her stories are either fast-paced or slow-paced. I love the way she untangles every twist in such a different manner.

Everything, as I have said earlier, is more than I could ask for. Everett is like his dad who loves whole heartedly, who falls deep. Though the story is something I am against of, it was delivered in an uncringeable way. I love Everything to the point I sometimes stopped from working because I can't resist reading the next chapter and what will happen to Belle and Everett's story. And I love Ashlynn as much as I love Everett! Can we have a story about Ashlynn now? My goodness, I'm even demanding a second book for Everything but now that I mentioned it, I'd rather have a glimpse of Ashlynn's mind and heart. I never thought I would badly wanted a twin because of Everything!

As much as I love Everett, my loyalty still lies with Mason Templeton. Oh, I highly recommend this book!

Wow…where do i start? I have to admit that I had mixed feelings about this book with the whole “student/teacher” storyline. However, that didn’t stop me from loving this book! Everett is the son of Mason and Scarlett [who we met in the Book Boyfriend series] and is a rising rockstar as part of a duo with his twin sister. While performing one night at the bar his family owns, he sees her. Belle is a little thing that reminds him of a feisty Tinker Bell. The chemistry between these two is off the freaking charts! Before things can get even more heated, they are interrupted and leave without exchanging numbers. The next time they run into each other is the very last place they ever thought it would be…her classroom. Can you say forbidden? Oh boy, and it just blows up from there.

I absolutely loved the writing and character development shown in this story. Ms. Noelle gently wrapped her words around me guiding me through this non-traditional love story. She has the ability to leave me still contemplating the relationship between these two characters and begging my friend [who thankfully also received an ARC] to hurry up and read so we can talk!!

Everything by Erin Noelle was “better than good” and I give it 4.5 stars.

I am completely ashamed to admit, that I haven’t read Erin’s Book Boyfriend Series. *hangsheadinshame* I know, I know, I suck, I am an ass. How could I miss an amazing story about Scarlett and Mason- ----- see, I at least know who they are.
Okay so back to EVERYTHING…
Everett and Ashlyn have a band called Singed Wings. They just found out that after they graduate, they will be going on tour with their father’s band. This is what they have been waiting for. While performing at Empty’s, Everett’s attention is caught by a pint sized beauty with a spunky attitude. There is something about her that pulls him towards her and he is determined to give her a performance of a lifetime.
Belle is out with her friend at Empty’s watching an amazing band and the singer has captured her attention. He screams Rock star and he is the sexiest thing she has laid eyes on. She can’t help but wonder if he’s as good in-between the sheets as he is on stage.
Let’s just say with some determination, things get a little hot and heavy after his performance on stage.
Belle has just excepted a new job as the new Art History teacher at the local high school and let’s just say she is shocked as shit when her rock star walks through her classroom doors.
Everett is over the moon that his Belle is his new teacher and he is determined to make her his. While Belle is determined to keep him away, being with him will cost her EVERYTHING, including her freedom.
See the problem?
Without spoiling anything, I have to say I LOVED how Erin pushed the envelope with this taboo subject of the teacher/student romance and not in that pervy way, she approached it with grace and beauty and a whole lot of lust. The age difference isn’t HUGE and he is just shy of 18, so it didn’t push me away from reading. There are plenty of stories out there with the male is years and years older than the just turned legal female, you know what I mean? I don't think I have read one like this similar, a little but they were in college or already legal and it is usually a male teacher with a female student.
The maturity that Everett exudes is amazing and smart and downright SEXY. He has such an old soul and a big heart.
Belle is fun, smart and beautiful and the chemistry between them is so dynamic! I really enjoyed their journey to find happiness as well as the challenges they face. Their rise and their fall, the lust, the love and the heartache.
There were times I got so nervous because I wasn’t sure which way Erin was taking the story.
I loved every forbidden, taboo moment of this story. I fell in love with this new Templeton generation and believe me, I am going back to read her BBS, to see how it all started.
Again, Erin has created these amazing characters, I love the risks she takes on the topics she writes some of her about and she does it beautifully.
A must read!!!

I’m a big fan of Erin Noelle – I was thrilled that Everything was a spinoff of my beloved Book Boyfriend Series. (Even if you haven’t read the Book Boyfriend Series you can still read Everything – reading the prior just brings different dimensions to the story.) This also means we get to see into the future life of Mason and Scarlett. You see, Everything is about Everett, Scarlett & Mason’s son. Everett and his sister Ashlynn are in a band together called the Singed Wings – they sing on weekends at Empty’s – you remember Empty’s right? That’s where Mason and his band Jobu’s Rum used to play.  Anyway, Everett meets the girl of his dreams one evening while he is about to go on stage – sparks fly immediately, the chemistry is so HOT! Their time together gets cut short that evening and silly Everett forgets to get a phone number. Will he ever see his little tinker Belle again? How will he find her?

Everett is a senior in high school returning after winter break and so excited to finish out the year – he walks into his 6th period class and guess what?!?! He has a new teacher, Ms. Sloan. Ms. Belle Sloan. You can imagine the shock for both of them. So let’s talk about this a bit – because quite honestly, this is where my struggle began. Granted Everett did not know that Belle was going to be his teacher and vice versa. But this is so taboo – keep in mind in Texas it is legal for a 17 year old to date an older woman – BUT not his teacher – that would be unethical. In MOST cases – this would offend me “I was ready to earn my A, and with any luck, I’d later be rewarded with an O.” yet, the story was written so well, I could overlook it and honestly, I did. I was actually cheering for them!

In typical Erin form similar to the Book Boyfriend Series, references were made about “butterpants” – if you are a fan of LuLaRoe – you knew exactly what she was talking about. I will never look, think or see Peter Pan the same way again – or Tinkerbell for that matter.

This was a really great read – I loved the ALMOST drama free fun read.

4 Stars from me! Can’t wait for Ashlynn’s story – there is going to be one right?!?!?

Let's get this straight, Erin Noelle is a f@cking rock star. If you have read her books you know this, if not better start somewhere.

Everything is a spin off of my absolute favorite Erin books the Book Boyfriends Series. (Team Ash) It is not necessary at all to have read them before Everything but it can only add to the fun and intensity.

So now about Everything...

Everett Templeton is the son of Jobu's Rum lead singer, Mason Templeton. He and his twin sister have their own band. Growing up in his family taught Everett to be wary of money grubbing lingers, skanks interested in his dad, and generally be on the look out for manipulating individuals.

Everett has held back from connecting to many people. He keeps to himself mostly, other than family he has his best friends Billy and Scott. He uses his music to avoid the life of a regular 17 yr old. Not one for partying, drinking, or sleeping around, Everett prefers quiet nights with his guitar, video games, or movies.

Though he's much more a home body, he still plays regularly at his family's bar. At the same bar, he meets his everything. Her name is Belle.

Getting out of a crappy relationship and finishing school, leftfield a little gun shy when it comes to relationships. But there is something incredibly captivating about the gorgeous rock star on stage. His magnetism and piercing gaze have Belle in a trance.

When they finally get together, the chemistry is scorching. They are insatiable, both reacting to the burning fire. A perfectly timed interruption has them both shaking off the haze, but where Everrett is contemplating more, Belle ran off to find her dignity.

Never thought they'd find each other again, both swallowed in self pity. But their second meeting is anything, but happy. She is his new teacher.

Problems, complications, and bad luck make your head spin. it will have tears streaming down your face and you yelling at your kindle.

A beautifully sweet story made better by my love for the characters.

Let me start by saying that the Book Boyfriend Series was the first books of Erin’s that I was advised to read and I loved them. I love the writing, the way the stories grew and surprised the life out of me, since then I have read nearly everything that this woman has written. I can’t get enough of her or her books.

Everything is brilliant. It is a spin off from the Book Boyfriend Series, you don’t have to have read these books first but it does help to see who the characters are.


Everett Templeton who is the son of the famous Rock Band Jobu’s Rum lead singer, Mason Templeton and twin sister have their own band which is great, growing up in that environment, learning the tricks of the trade, growing up in that family, well it is bound to rub off.

With their father being who he is, it also gave the twins an insight into the seedy side of the business, the people who not to trust shall we say.

Everett is what I would call a good kid, doesn’t go out partying, keeps to his music and his best friends, and doesn’t even sleep around. He is a guy who prefers to be at home than out partying and living it up…… very rare.

It is while he is playing at the family’s bar that Everett meets Belle, she is shy and has been hurt previously, however, from the first time Belle spots Everett then she is transfixed.

The thing I love about this book as most of Erin’s is nothing is straightforward, there are always twists, turns and things you would never expect and this book is the same and I loved it and at times hated it but that is what Erin as an author should do to us, make us think while reading her books.

If I went into more then the story plot would be spoiled which I will not do. You just need to read this book for yourselves.

Everything is EVERYTHING!!!!

This isn't another Teacher/Student messy love story. So if you get turned off by that, get turned back ON! This is the fantastic story of the son of a rock God, Everett, who's in a band with his twin sister, and Belle, a girl he met at a bar and happened to start working at his high school as his new art teacher.

Everett says all the right things and is definitely mature for his young age. He's thoughtful and sexy as HELL! What I loved most though was how he can make YOU even fall in love with him right off the bat! His lyrics are golden and his heart is huge. You feel it bleed.

Belle is strong and adorable. She takes chances and she's bold. There weren't any games when it came to Everett. She went with her gut and she "flew" through this story with her heart on her sleeve. You LIVE this romance through her. And you'll be swooning all over the place!

I drowned in this book from the very first page! Everett and Belle's chemistry made my head swirl, my heart soar, and my lady parts tingle! I should also note that Everything also has one of the greatest and hottest love scenes I have ever read... and I like em dirty! It'll blow you away and you'll be begging your significant other for some loving after it!

I don't know if Erin has any future plans for Everett and Belle but I would be the first in line to read up on them. I absolutely LOVED this book and Im positive you will too! YOU ROCK ERIN!
