Goodreads Synopsis: An explosive guitarist. A fiery temper. A flame that threatens to die with each meeting…and one slip of the tongue that changes everything. I get a call late one night about some band that got ripped off. When I get there in uniform, it’s like showing up to class without pants on. My sneers set them back a notch. I’m no groupie. But this one guitarist in glasses, Spex, isn’t afraid of me, so I bite back harder. Later that night, another call arrives, this time it hits home hard. What Spex shows me makes me look twice at him. And it’s a long, hard look. More than that, it’s a look that makes everything else completely different forever. And I don’t think I’m ready for that. *** We’re being treated like the dirtbags here, but I get the feeling that this Claudia chick uses a broad stroke with people. Doesn’t matter if you’re the guitarist in one of the most popular bands ever. She has a silver tongue but I’ve got ironclad chops. When I follow her to the airport, and back home, having received a mutual call, I realize that her act is just that. My glasses come off and my perspective changes, when I see something in Claudia that I never want to see in myself. My gift to her makes her look twice at me. …but when the flatline sounds in the Emergency Room, all bets are off. Rock star romance Happily Ever After Hate to love romance Medium heat Drinking Drug abuse Swearing Cliffhanger ending Eruption (Big Bands Big Hearts, #6) by Sandra Alex | Goodreads Thank you to Sandra Alex for providing me with an advanced ebook copy of Eruption for me to read and review. Eruption is the 6th book in the Big Bands, Big Hearts series and it was an excellent continuation of the story involving the rockstars! The 2 characters that were the focus of this story were unique, interesting characters with their own fiery dynamic and I was intrigued to see how their chemistry would progress. There were a couple of things in this book that I didn't care for as much. First is something which may be my own personal preference, was the continued use of the word man when characters are speaking to or referring to the female characters of the story. This writing choice appears in a number of Alex's books; it rubs me the wrong way and throws off my reading flow when it happens. Second was the inclusion of a sort of 'teaser' sentence ending each chapter and sometimes ending individual points of view. I wasn't a fan of this as I would rather just discover what is going to happen through reading the story rather than "little did he know...." inclusions. The story itself was good overall though and I am curious to see where the story will go in the next book. 4 Stars!
