Even when his father retires the rock star life and moves the family from L.A., their lives are rarely incognito. While his classmates have visions of college life in the fall following senior year, his fantasy is to be normal. Whatever normalcy is, he is sure it’s not graduating with honors and his virginity.

To say that Tristan lived a privileged life would be an understatement of epic proportions. Tristan "JJ" is the son of former bad boy rocker, Jack Storm from Jackal. Growing up with an overbearing and overprotective mom was just one of the things he felt the need to escape from. Living in his fathers shadow was another. Despite the danger he sets off to find his own way in life.

Sash is a spitfire. She heads up the band Splynter I loved her character and how upbeat and naive she is. When Skyping and texting means finally meeting Trey Duplei, aka Tristan "JJ" Storm, she couldn't be more ecstatic. Having him try out for the band was a bonus. They both have secrets that just may tear them and the band apart. Are they strong enough to get past them?

I'm extremely lucky to be able to read this book for review as I've discovered a new author that I can't wait to read more of. This is a coming of age tale that reminded me of the mistakes I made when I was young and how I needed that time to grow into who I am today.

If you're looking for a emotionally charged rockin' good read than this is the book for you.

OMG Lisa does it again! I absofreakinlutely loved this book! I loved seeing JJ all grown up and getting to see his family and their pov throughout the story. Lisa outdid herself with this one and I can not wait until the next one!!

This story tugged at the heart strings, had its "Oh hell no" moments along with sweet "aaahh" moments and a few teary eyed moments as well.

Fantastic, yet believable storyline, great concepts, great dialogue between characters and the description to details were done really well.

All in all, an Ubertastic read!!

This is a new book in a series and plays off the other string series but can be read as a stand alone. But I do not recommend that. To get the full effect you need to read the whole set.

Would I recommend this book? Uhh Yea!!!

Would I read more from this author? Of course!!!

I. Am. So. Confused. How did this book get written by the same author who wrote the D-String series? Honestly it’s like a bunch of sentences looking for a linear thought.
Awful.

Just finished Tristan story of his journey to finding himself. This was a nice book that showcases a privileged child off on a road to finding the lessons he might have disliked growing up is coming in handing when the security is no longer there.
