Goodreads Synopsis: Their first hit single. His first betrayal. And two women that make Randy question everything he’s ever wanted. Randy Jackson loves his life. He’s got a beautiful, hard-working celebrity wife, and a rising musical career as the lead guitarist in a band that just signed their first record deal. He has a great dog, and the best relationships with his band members, namely his stepbrother, who is the lead vocalist. Little clues pass by him that things aren’t quite as hunky-dorey as they may seem, but Randy’s rose-colored glasses currently blind him. Darrell Tanner loves her job as a video editor for the music industry. She’s met all types of musicians that adorn the face of MTV, but none ever appreciate her hard work until the boys from Brave Face appear. Darrell is suddenly treated like royalty, and she basks in the accoutrements in a dream-like state, forgetting about her second-class boss who spends more time on vacation than he does in the office. But one day she realizes that she’s taken things too far, and it’s too late to do anything about it. Can she walk away and leave the best thing that’s ever happened to her? Randy’s wake-up call comes like a bat out of hell, and when he least expects it. The only thing that has kept his focus in such a tumultuous industry is the one thing that he’s about to lose for good, and the worst part is, he has to be the one to walk away from it. Until someone he least expects breaks his fall, and everyone else sees it coming, including Randy…but is he too jaded to do anything about it? A beautiful love story about survival in a tough industry that labels and points fingers in all directions at undeserving people, and the lies that they tell to get ahead under the spotlight. This is a rock star romance that underscores the betrayal that exists in Hollywood, and how stars either sink or swim through it, just like the rest of the world does. First Cut contains course language and graphic sex, so please be forewarned. This book, like all others in this series, is a standalone, and can be enjoyed in any sequence. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/59352926-first-cut?ref=bk_bet_in Thank you to Sandra Alex for providing me with an ebook copy of First Cut for me to review. What an interesting, fast paced story. I loved the plot and unique characters. There were a small number of grammatical and wording errors that I noticed while reading including the wrong name used at one point, however they weren't frequent enough to detract from the story. The one thing I disliked was the use of man or dude when speaking to the female main character. It happened constantly and it rubbed me the wrong way every single time. Still, the quick pace of the story and the romance that you want to root for kept me wanting to find out what would happen next. 4 Stars!
