Wow. Okay. All the Rock Chicks have had bad shit happen to them. But Sadie (view spoiler) And, as a whole, she might be my favorite Rock Chick. I relate to her in a way I honestly can't describe, but she cut right through to the heart of me.

That being said, Hector... was definitely not my favorite Hot Bunch guy. He m ...more

I don't know why I.was so reluctant to read this one...I guess in a way I don't want the series to end...as in NEVER!!!
The Rock Chicks are hilarious as ever...and the Hot bunch already feel like my friends (I wish!!)
Sadie's story was heart breaking...I was bawling my eyes out towards the end!!!!
Hector was as Macho as they come, but it worked fine...you could almost see the love there...
*sigh*
Having mixed feelings here...I don't want them to end....BUT I also CAN'T wait for Ally $ Ren's story ...more

Rock Chick Regret (Rock Chick, #7) by Kristen Ashley

2024 re-listen: Ahhh, Sadie. Kristen truly got into Sadie's psyche and yeah, the character still breaks my heart, no matter how many times I've been through this book. And the Christmas ending is just perfect for this time of year.

2019 re-listen. The fairy princess gets her Prince Charming. I love Sadie. She's my favorite and I truly believe this is my favorite book in the series.

2018 celebratory re-listen after my trip to Denver. This is still my favorite book in the series, as much as I ...more

I just adore this series ! The story line is just so touching and at the same time there is this whimsical attitude everyone has and makes a dark situation lighter. I know I would want friends like that. Sadie is not the kind of person you would coddle it would have scared her right off. I think what touched me is how she tried so hard to cope and survive despite it all. I loved the characters in this story buddy and Ralphie I think I could use them in my friend group too!
There was a scene where ...more

I rate the Rock Chick series a 5 star all the way, some of the titles I enjoyed more than others but as soon as I put down one book I couldn’t wait to get started on the next so in my eyes the series is well worth the 5 stars.

Hector and Sadie, Rock Chick Regret could very well be my favourite KA couple. Hector was an undercover DEA agent who helped put Sadie’s drug lord father behind bars. Here’s a snippet where Sadie asks Hector what he first thought of her when he met her.

Hector and Sadie, Rock Chick Regret could very well be my favourite KA couple. Hector was an undercover DEA agent who helped put Sadie’s drug lord father behind bars. Here’s a snippet where Sadie asks Hector what he first thought of her when he met her.

“What did you think of me when you first met me?” I asked before I could think better of it.
His fingers were warm on my neck and he gave me a gentle squeeze.
He didn’t hesitate with his answer. “I thought you were beautiful and I thought you were cold.”
This didn’t offend me, a lot of people thought that way because I wanted them to think that way, so I nodded.
“Do you want to know what I think of you now?” he asked.
I really didn’t, I wasn’t sure I could take it but for some bizarre reason I nodded again anyway.
“I think you’re even more beautiful and I think you’re totally lost.”
My brows went up. “And you think you can help me find my way?”
He shook his head, his eyes went warm and I got another neck squeeze coupled with a tightening of his arm around my waist.
“Mamita, only you can find you way. I just wanna be along for the ride.”

And there’s always plenty of funny snippets…too many to share...the following is Sadie letting Hector know his views are a little archaic.

“Maybe I should go put on my ragged white dress and stone necklace and you can put on your leopard skin tunic and we can pedal in our stone car to the roadhouse before you go bowling with Barney and I go shopping with Betty, Fred.”

For a self-published author Kristen Ashley is one of the best. She certainly knows how to drag me into her characters lives. I see from reviews that KA writes in a way that not every reader enjoys, but she’s certainly captivated my attention. I can't wait for Ally Nightingale's story.

For those of you new to Kristen Ashley I would suggest you follow the reading order on her blog, because some characters are intertwined between the series. I am positive I've read who Ally's partner ends up as but I just can't remember who!!

Reread 06/15/2025 ~ 3 stars

I'm definitely in a different place than I was 10 years ago when I first read this. I loved Sadie and my heart broke for her so many times while reading this story. Me agreeing with Hector saying she has "a will of steel" is still true. It was born out of necessity to get through her life after her mother disappeared.

I don't know if I thought this the first time or not, but I blamed Nightingale Investigations, especially Lee & Hector for what ended up happening to her Reread 06/15/2025 ~ 3 stars

I don't know if I thought this the first time or not, but I blamed Nightingale Investigations, especially Lee & Hector for what ended up happening to her. It also pissed me off that everyone got away without uttering the words I'm sorry. Why did it take something like this happening for their behavior to change towards her? Yes, we knew they were sorry and rightfully blamed themselves, but no one actually said it and I think she deserved the actions and the words.

And honestly, this time around with everyone being all up in everyone's business didn't strike me as funny as it had in previous books, it actually got on my nerves.

I'm not going to say anything about anyone else because just about everyone except Sadie annoyed me.

Original Review 01/17/2015 ~ 4 stars
I fall in love a little more with each of the books in this series. Almost every time I say that the current heroine is my favorite. This time it is true, Sadie is the strongest, and Hector I love because he did do the one thing that the others didn't and that was give her time in the beginning.

I definitely have to agree with Hector's assessment about Sadie having "a will of steel", it broke my heart the things she had to go through. Those things made her stronger. She cried, a lot, but who wouldn't, but she never broke. If she were a real person she would definitely have every ounce of my respect.

Hector is hot and he seems more open about his feelings for Sadie than the other guys were. Yes, we knew they loved the girls, but Hector made no bones about what he wanted from her. They only confusion came because she didn't understand due to her past.

Still, there is something that is keeping me from giving this 5 stars, but it is definitely a 4.5. ...more
