Sinner's Run #1

Sinner's Muse

Rate this book
MIA
I never imagined I’d get tangled up with Sinner’s Run, one of the world’s hottest rock bands. But after my brother joined as their new bassist, I couldn’t stop stealing lingering glances at the guitarist, Tyler. There’s a darkness in his eyes that I want to fill with light, but going down this road might burn both of us.

TYLER
Mia stepped into my world during my darkest time. Pictures were taken of us, assumptions were made. Suddenly my PR manager sees a way to fix my image, and that’s with this gorgeous and innocent kindergarten teacher. This is all supposed to be for the cameras, but when someone dangerous from her past comes knocking, I know I’ll do anything to keep her safe. And now every line we drew is starting to blur.

Sinner’s Muse is a 21,000 word condensed fake relationship, rock star romance, packed with heat, language, and chemistry. It was written to be read in about 2 hours.

The band is Sinner’s Run and when Mia walks into the studio where her brother has an audition as a bassist she can’t stop looking at Tyler. They’re locked into a staring match that she loses. Events of that day has her accepting a job as Tyler’s girlfriend to clean up his bad boy image, being a kindergarten teacher and all. The chemistry of these two is off the hook and Tyler is hot AF. This story is hot, sweet and romantic. I’m looking forward to reading about the other band members. My only complaint is that this book was way too short and I didn’t want it to end- ever! I’m giving it five stars and recommend it highly.

Short stories rarely give me the happy feels, due to the lack of time to connect with any of the characters, but this was cute as fuck.
Insta-love without making me upchuck.
Just enough dirt to keep me happy.
And a HEA.
...
All the right ingredients for a successful rock star romance.
I bought the next in the series immediately after I was finished.
Hello, happy place, thank you for the soft landing.

Good Book

This is a really nice book, it’s not very long (84 pages) but it’s a nice sweet story.
Tyler is the guitarist in his band and is dealing with the tragic loss of one of the members Ben and has gone off the rails a bit.
Mia is a kindergarten teacher and is the sister of Owen who tries out for the band and they are photographed who h helps his image which then leads to a fake relationship.
However it’s become real very fast but she has an ex who stalked her and he comes back and attacks her.
Like I said this isn’t a very long story and there is no cheating, if I’m honest I kinda wanted it to be a little longer.
I’m going to start the next book of the series to see what happens to them all.

Quick & Easy Read

I really enjoyed this book. I wasn’t in the mood for something long that I needed to really invest myself in. I wanted to watch people fall in love quickly, overcome any issues swiftly, and get to their HEA pronto. This book delivered on all of that!

The hero is dealing with survivors guilt and the h helps bring him back to life. The heroine has a stalker and the H vows to protect her. They meet and the attraction is immediate; their lives intersect and they help each other heal and move forward with their lives. Together.

*No cheating. No OM/OW drama. HEA.*

Great short story,thoroughly enjoyed it & plenty of heat,passion, lust & loads of warm & fuzzy feels. I thought Tyler & Mia were great. Got everything you need in a rockstar romance. This story is hot, sweet and romantic. I’m looking forward to reading about the other band members. My only complaint is that this book was way too short and I didn’t want it to end- ever! I’m giving it five stars and recommend it highly.

Good story

I really liked Tyler and Mia. I like “safe” stories and this was one of them. In order to get an epilogue you will need to sign up for the newsletter. I’m hopeful the other stories are safe too.

Poorly edited, very short story

This read more like a piece of fan fiction. Writing is very immature & the text is poorly edited. Entire book was more teenage fantasy then adult romance.

Short low drama love story

I found this book to be a short and sweet love story. No surprises or twist. Straight forward and low drama. Enjoyable read but not a ton of meat to the story but well written all the same.

Good

So I guess my biggest thing is I felt there should be more, more push and pull before things become real, more showing in the relationship than telling. That said I enjoyed the story.

Quick and easy. Simple. Broken rock star. Good girl with a stalker.
Love comes quickly but it’s real.
I like that it’s novella length. I have high hopes for the rest of the series.

A fun quick rockstar read. Broody Tyler and sassy Mia fall fast and hard. Fake relationship, with a typical outcome but a twist to keep you turning those pages

Cute, fun, spicy

This was the perfect short read. Rockstar meets kindergarten teacher and sparks fly. Just the right amount of spicy. Sometimes you just need a quicky!

Short, but sweet

I’ve been in a slump, unable to finish a book lately. This was just what I needed. A sweet romance with a hot rockstar. I only wish it was longer.
