Terri Anne Browning is a USA TODAY bestselling author. Being dyslexic, she never thought a career in writing would be possible, yet she has been on bestselling lists multiple times since 2013. Reese: A Safe Haven Novella was her first Indie published book. The Rocker Who Holds Me changed the tables and kicked off The Rocker... series featuring the sinfully delicious members of Demon's Wings. The Rocker... Series is now complete with 12 books and the occasional novella. Other books by Terri Anne include the Angel's Halo MC Series, as well as The Lucy & Harris Novella Series, The Vitucci Mafiosos Series, and The Tainted Knights Rocker Series.
Terri Anne lives in Virginia with her husband, their three demons---err, children--and a hyper Frenchie named Grunt.
Hopelessly Devoted by Terri Anne Browning was the ninth book in the Rockers’ Legacy series. Although the other books don’t necessarily have to be read in order, this definitely needs to be read after the first eight books in the series as it was a series of follow ups from the previous eight books.
Hopelessly Devoted was divided into seven parts based on characters from the previous books of the series: Mia, Nevaeh, Arella, Shaw, Doe, Trinity and Piper (in that order). The only character missing a full story was Violet (book three) and the author addressed why at the end. Although each part focused on one character, most of the other characters were also present as a supporting character in each part, including Violet. Additionally, most parents and siblings from the original series were also actively present.
Although I enjoyed a follow up from each couple and the entire Rocker Family, I stayed pretty confused and had to constantly go back to other books to fill in some blanks. My recommendation for future books similar to this is to provide a quick introduction with a family tree so as to quickly remember who belongs to whom (siblings, parents, etc) since they were typically only referred to as dad, mom, aunt, brother, etc. Additionally, it felt as if the timelines were all over the place from part to part and treated as separate stories with no real regard to what just occurred in the previous part. As part of the introduction, a timeline of where the story falls would be helpful or putting the stories in order and showing a segue from one to the other would be helpful. Lastly, I think there was an editing issue because starting with the fourth part, the cover page addressed the wrong characters, ie: Hopelessly Devoted to Arella introduced Shaw, Hopelessly Devoted to Shaw introduced Doe and so on. This is an easy fix and may be corrected by the time this review is posted.
As for the stories themselves, I fully enjoyed them. They picked up from an expected HEA from their original story, but included a real life issue. Some issues were more dramatic then others, but all addressed current conflicts within their relationship and/or family dynamic. My rating is more for the current series fans versus new readers - new readers need to start from the beginning. Otherwise, series fans should totally enjoy the updates and story progressions.
Additionally, the author wrote a note at the end and explained her thought process before and after Hopelessly Devoted was written. We can expect more similar to this over the next year in the form of novellas, which I think is a great idea.
All in all, I enjoyed the book and my issues were more with the structure and editing versus the storytelling - and all were easy fixes! I look forward to more in the series and hopefully in time we’ll get the third generation as well!
I hate when an author takes advantage of a fan base. I always like Ms. Browning's books and if you look on my kindle you would see how much I liked her books. My breaking point was Loving Violet. Here it is several books later and it is still being drug out. In this book some of the ladies are getting their happily ever after but of course Violet is the holdout. I enjoyed getting a glimpse into their lives while planning their hea. Some of the characters i really liked and we get to see the original characters that drew me to the books. Sadly.this will be my last book I purchase of this authors I questioned my sanity when I pre ordered this book. I should have listened to me. One thing this book was $6.99 which I felt like was too high (especially now). I will not be reviewing any more books because I won't be buying any more books. This review is how I am feeling about this book. It was enjoyable at times but not 5 star worthy. I just wish the author would get back to writing books like she did at first. With heart.
I had to DNF. I don’t have time to go back to the authors previous books to try and remember the characters parents are. It would have been helpful if the author had a family tree or explained the timeline before readers jumped in. I read in another review that the author plans more of these books which are basically a book of novellas. No thanks I’m out.
Wow, just wow! OMG this was the best book ever! The way it tied up each couples wedding was unbelievable. From Mia and Barrick, Nevaeh and Braxton, Arella, and Jordan, Shaw and Jagger, Doe and Jenner, Trinity and Jarrett, to Piper and Cannon. Even though each story was a wedding, it was completely unique and amazing. I was so glad to hear that the author is going to continue with these characters that I have grown to love and feel like they were my own family. I can’t wait for Violet’s next story. I just can’t get enough… Hurry, please!
The is the best package of HEA in the novella format. I loved the characters that made up Terri Anne Browning world. And to get a little cherry on top, we get the stories leading to the weddings of some of our Rockers kids. I love how the families were woven into each novella and cannot wait for what Terri Anne Browning will write next.
This was an amazing collection of stories. The rocker kids do jot disappointment and their patents are still as crazy and over the top as they have always been. I can't even pick my favorite wedding but I have s feeling Violets will be just as amazing if not more!!!
I absolutely loved this! I loved that we were able to revisit all the couples and how they moved forward into the next phase of their lives. Not was so great to see all of them again. I don't think.I will ever get sick of their stories....I'd loved to see more of the Angels Halls kids too!!!
This book was amazing, tying the rockers children’s lives together. Each novella was powerfully written demonstrating love to the core. Piper’s story was incredible. I did not see that coming!!!! Sooooooo gooood. Wondering if there will be a spin-off of the outcome, years later???? Can’t wait for more. Absolutely, a must read.
Yes yes yes! She did it again! Thank you for another peek in the lives of the rocker offsprings. Good job girls for standing you ground even in the most brutal of situations. Doe for standing up to her parents even with all the love she has for them! And my favourite....Piper, who has the strenght to cut out her brother for the awful things he has done and for what be turned a blind eye to!

Loved it, talk about seeing characters we've come to love, and to see them age and how they are with their kids is spectacular. You see love stories get stronger as they prepare for weddings. Looking forward to the next book.
