Summary

Charlie Rourke is an ultra-fabulous human whirlwind on a mission to launch the next biggest band in the world. However, he might have taken on more than he could handle when he signed on to manage Zero. Promoting a rock band and finding gigs shouldn’t be hard. They’re a talented group with a ton of star power. If Charlie can find the right record label, he’s sure he can help them get to the next level. The only problem is the skater boy slash bassist with a quirky sense of humor. He’s annoying and silly, and he’s exactly Charlie’s type. Except, he’s straight.

Ky Baldwin isn’t afraid to switch things up. He loves a challenge as much as anyone, but Charlie doesn’t make things easy. Zero’s manager is a force of nature with a razor-sharp tongue, a quick wit, and a no-nonsense attitude. Ky can’t stop thinking about him. Winning over Charlie becomes Ky’s pet project.

But, when the ice between them thaws, neither is prepared for the intensity of going from enemies to lovers. They’ll have to decide if they’re willing to start from scratch and take a chance on the unexpected.

There’s more than meets the eye with these two!!

A sort of enemies to friends to lovers to in love story with more depth than I first realized. I love Lane’s characters and I’m so glad Charlie got his own story! I love him!

I love Charlie’s “authentically me” personality and how he knows who he is, flaws and all! Charlie is just Charlie, out and proud, fashion-forward, and adorably sassy. He’s chalk to Ky’s cheese but they just work.

I loved that there was SO much more to Ky then first meets the eye and I liked that Lane took her time revealing all the complexities of Ky and his big heart. I loved that he was able to accept and go with the flow with his feelings for Charlie and I loved that they didn’t run from each other. Of course, there’s a nice bump/break in the road but thankfully everyone came to their senses really quickly and their happily ever after was back on track. I loved the push and pull with these two and the sexual tension was off the charts. I loved the tease and release 😉 These two have become two of my favorites! I can’t wait for more Zero stories and look forward to the next one. I’m loving Zero!

Thanks for reading!

Opposites attract

Opposites certainly attract in the latest instalment of this rock star series. Charlie and Ky definitely shouldn’t work, Charlie is chaotic, outspoken and has zero filter whereas Ky is quiet and a bit unsure of himself. But boy do these guys have chemistry, their banter and pranks are great Lane Hays does an awesome job of conveying their back and forth and it was only a matter of time before the UST exploded and that it did!
I loved how we saw Charlie grow in this book, he was vulnerable with Ky and when Ky needed him he was always there. Ky has had it rough and his life isn’t short of drama in this book either, although stubborn at first he learns to open up and let Charlie help him.
Michael Pauley can do no wrong in my eyes, he portrays Charlie exactly as I expected him to be I loved his narration of Ollie as well, kids can be hard to get right and he nails it.
