With her, he can reach the stars—but can she reach his heart?
Amber Blake is fleeing a terrible betrayal in her past by touring with rock band Puppetmaster as a make-up artist with her best friend Elyse. Knowing the band is struggling, she hopes to use her make-up skills to reinvent their image, but when a member of the crew drops out, Amber finds herself asked to contribute in a different way—in the form of heated sexual conversations with hot lead singer Cassian Marsh, to put him in top form before every concert.
Despite her past, Amber is unable to resist Cassian’s charm and raw energy, and enjoys knowing she can drive him wild with just her voice, but their increasingly passionate meetings leave her longing for more. Can she move past the betrayal she suffered? And can she convince a man as commitment-phobic as Cassian to break his no-dating rule and let her into his heart?
I first started writing seriously when my tutor on a creative writing course pointed me towards the Romantic Novelists' Association and their New Writers' Scheme. Thanks to them, my debut novel "The Hand He Dealt" was accepted by Total-e-Bound in 2011 and was nominated for the Joan Hessayon Award for 2012. I haven't stopped writing since.
This year I'm working on my new series “Rock My World” plus the upcoming release of my back collection as audiobooks. My novella “The Start of Something” came out on 27th December 2022 and “I’m With The Band” will be out in May 2023.
When I'm not writing, I love to read historical fiction and non-fiction as well as anything paranormal. I love to sing, watch horror movies and go to rock concerts. I also have two cats who like to hide all day and then destroy the house at night.
Amber has an interesting aspect to her job. But she works in a world that most of us only see from the outside. Cassian seems to have a certain persona for others to see. And then he lets Amber in.
This was a story that I was starting to get into when I quickly come to the end. Being that the story revolves around a rock star and his band, if you like to listen to music I would go ahead. My only suggestion would be to skip the normal album and go with one that’s Live From... This way you can have the concert experience as you see this world unfold.
I don’t get a country vibe so a rock group would be your best bet. I’ve loved Queen since I can remember so for me, I would read this story again while listening to one of their ten live albums. If you have access to the internet, you may even be able to find one out of many in the world to listen to.
If you look at the genre, when I see the word “erotic” I picture steamy enough to blush. Maybe I’ve been in the world too long because I didn’t blush and my cheeks didn’t even get pink. It’s more about what your comfortable with and how far you like your characters to go. For me, I thought it was pretty tame. I’m interested to see how the author is going to take book two.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
This is the first book I have read by Tanith Davenport and I found it to be very entertaining and enjoyable.This Rockstar Romance story is very different from what I have read before. Amber is a make up artist working with the band Puppetmaster and she is trying to help them with their image.She catches the eye of lead singer Cassian Marsh a sexy as hell rockstar,who is way out of her league,but who she starts to help with motivating him before a show. But as these two get closer Amber's past seems to haunt her and Cas is the stereotypical Rockstar with commitment issues.So would Amber be able to get past the betrayal she experienced years ago. Could they ever make a relationship work ? This is a great read and I am looking forward to reading more from Tanith Davenport. Hyperventilating was a very intriguing read and I Loved getting to know these characters and discovering their story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. 5 Stars.
This was a quick, enjoyable foray into the insecurities and idiosyncrasies of fame and the people involved in it. Cassian has an image to portray and when his…hype-woman…leaves the tour, it looks like it’s up to Amber to help him find his mojo before each show. But could she do it without losing her self-respect? Or is Cassian really just waiting for his time to prove to Amber that he’s really all-in with her?
There were a few glimpses into the chemistry across the band and the closeness of their camaraderie, but we didn’t lose focus on Amber and Cas. The fact that this rocker is willing, able, and eager to claim Amber made for a fast way to pass some time, along with some emotion and heat thrown in.
This is an extremely hot rockstar short story/novella about a touring rock band. Amber Blake is one of the make up artist touring with the band and is called on to help out with something else when a member of the crew leaves. Cassias Marsh is the front man for the band Puppetmaster. He’s got the voice, body and strut to do the job but has an unusual ritual before his concerts. He likes a woman to talk dirty to him to rev him up. Amber is already half in love with him but can she do this? You can breeze through this one in one sitting and find out!
This was a quick, easy read centered around a rock band and their make-up artists/costume girls. It had a very interesting storyline, especially with the lead singer. There is some drama and you will be able to read this in one sitting.
Hyperventilating was a quick, sexy rockstar story. Amber and Cas were likable, and their interactions were hot. This was told from Amber's point of view, and we learned a lot about her. Cas was more mysterious, but the HFN ending left Amber hopeful for their future together. I enjoyed this.
Amber had something happen years before and it’s made her leery of having a relationship. When the lead singers therapist quits Amber steps in to help him but she isn’t sure of herself. It was short and you will be able to read in a sitting, but a good read...
Very short but very entertaining. Amber had something happen years before and it’s made her leery of having a relationship. When the lead singers therapist quits Amber steps in to help him but she isn’t sure of herself. Story didn’t have a great deal of background information but it was still enjoyable
Wow!! What a fun Rockstar romance. Totally not what I was expecting! This quick,fast paced, steamy, crazy story is one you won't be able to put down. Amber heads in tour as a make up artist for a band right after graduation with her friend Elyse. After meeting the front man, Cassian,things got from crazy fun to hot and heavy. I really liked this story. It was fun and the characters were great. 4.5 stars. I wished it were longer ;)
