Title: Rock King
Series: Nothing but Trouble # 1
By: Tara Leigh
Release Date: February 20th, 2018
Publisher: Forever Yours

Fans of Kristen Callihan and Kylie Scott will scream for this sizzling bad boy rock star romance!

I’m not who you think I am.

Shane Hawthorne has it all. At least, that’s what the headlines say about me. I have millions of fans, awards, more money – and women – than I know what to do with. But what you don’t see is the wreckage I’ve caused. The memories and pain I can’t escape, even when I pour them into music and spin them into gold.

I tried to forget. To lose myself in booze and groupies. It didn’t work. It hurt me and – worse – it hurt my band. That’s the last thing I want to do, so I’m cleaning up my act… starting with Delaney Fraser.

Gorgeous, smart, drama-free, and even nice – Delaney is the perfect “girlfriend.” When I’m with her I don’t have to pretend. It’s like she sees the real me. And I can see a future with her. But that’s dangerous. Because the truth is, Shane Hawthorne doesn’t actually exist. He’s a shield to hide who I really am. Fraud. Runaway. Addict. Murderer.

And it’s impossible to love a lie, right?

Rock King is the first book in the Nothing but Trouble series by author Tara Leigh.  I have read many rocker books, and they often retell the same story, over and over.  I was very happy to see that Rock King had an original storyline, and I truly enjoyed it. It’s full of angst, drama, and several steamy sex scenes.

Rock King tells the story of Shane Hawthorn, who is the lead singer for the band Nothing but Trouble.  The book does talk about the other band members, but the focus of the book is on Shane and Delaney. Not necessarily the band as a whole.

Shane is very successful, but he is keeping a pretty big secret from the world.  Only a couple of the closest people around him know what has happened in the past.  Shane finds that having a fake girlfriend helps to keep the past, in the past, and the groupies away.

Delaney was just hired to be Shane’s girlfriend for the upcoming tour. She is also keeping a big secret from everyone. Shane doesn’t realize, but their pasts are very similar.  Shane and Delany are complex characters, and they kept my attention throughout the whole book.
