A rocker gets a taste of unexpected passion in the latest red-hot Rock Star Romance from the award-winning author of I Want You to Want Me.
Calix Bourbon might seem like a free spirit, but that’s all a front. In reality he’s just trying to keep his fractured family together while working as a session musician. When Blue Fire hires him to replace their keyboardist, Calix is determined to make the most of the opportunity—but he can’t help being distracted by the band’s sexy personal chef.
Mimi’s temporary gig is great, but she has her heart set on auditioning for a televised cooking show. There’s just one problem: she only has a week to acquire the skills necessary to survive the competition. Luckily, the band’s new keyboard player can teach her exactly what she needs, in the kitchen and in the bedroom...
With the sun in his eyes, Calix strode across the damp grass to Slater and Emmie’s house. Knowing what she knew about his family, why would Mimi offer his brother a job without running it by him first?
Leaping up the stairs, he pushed into the kitchen. It smelled of spices—Mexican—but the counters were wiped clean and dishes piled in the drying rack.
In the down time between breakfast and lunch, Mimi had probably gone back to Violet’s farm. Probably for the best. He shouldn’t talk to her when he was pissed, but then again, maybe he should. She shouldn’t have inserted herself in his family’s business.
“Fuckity fuck.” Mimi. Where was she? “Noooo.”
The door to the laundry room was ajar. Water flowed from a tap.
He crossed the kitchen, pushed open the door, ready to confront her, when he found her topless, leaning over a sink and holding a white shirt under the faucet. In her black yoga pants, black patent leather ballet flats, her pale skin practically glowed in the late morning light.
He tried hard not to look, but the skimpy pink lace bra was…well, fuck. Her breasts wobbled with her exertion, and it ignited a flash of lust in his dick. “Shit. Sorry.”
“Calix.” Her hands jerked the sopping wet shirt to her chest. Water flowed down her stomach and sank into the pants. As if it were on fire, she flung the shirt into the sink, and then stepped back, arms open wide looking down at the water dripping off her body. “What’re you doing here?”
Calix swiped a towel out of the laundry basket and tossed it to her.
She mopped her chest—clearly having no idea she was making her luscious breasts jiggle. “Thank you. Crap, what a mess. I got mole sauce all over my shirt, and there’s no way it’s going to come out.”

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteThanks for a great giveaway. I have no idea what name I would use if I had a band.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Dianne.
DeleteI definitely wouldn't have any clue what to name a band. I just don't think I'm that creative. Plus, I'm always changing my mind.
That's tough! I lack in the creativity department. I'm racking my brain for something unique and catchy and I got nothing lol :)
