Review / Release Blitz: Knocked Up by the Rockstar (Mile High Rocked #2) by Christina Hovland

Release Date: December 10

Things just got serious...

The only thing music publicist Courtney Lincoln dislikes more than knock-off sugary breakfast cereal is the hunky lead singer of her brother’s ridiculously popular band. A band on the rocks, again. Seems like this time it’ll take a miracle to save Dimefront. So when she discovers she’s pregnant following one teeny, tiny, mind-blowing morning with Brennan “Bax” Baxter, the timing is not great. Being a mom wasn’t part of her plan, but her plans just changed.

Following the implosion of his engagement, Bax realizes he doesn’t want to lose Dimefront, too. But he’s finally let his guard down with Courtney in a steamy slip-up that ties them together as unlikely co-parents. The big problem? He broke the cardinal rule of music—don’t knock up the bass player’s little sister. Especially a little sister who sees straight through the façade he’s painstakingly curated. But he’s always wanted a family, and he’s being offered that chance. Plus, Courtney might just be exactly who he needs to keep him grounded.

Even if the band can mend fences, there’s a baby on the way, and Courtney’s questioning everything she once thought. Bax is suddenly a dreamy boyfriend, but she isn’t convinced it’s authentic given all she knows about his rocker past. As the group heads out on what they hope is a reunion tour, Bax and Courtney have to figure out what’s real, what’s not, and if they can learn to finally trust each other…

MY REVIEW

Courtney's been tasked with giving her frenemy, Bax, a place to lie low after his engagement hits the skids. Neither of them expected where his temporary residence in her home would lead, though. After all, he's not only her brother's friend and bandmate, he and Courtney have a less than friendly relationship. How can they be expected to co-parent a baby when they can barely stand the sight of each other? Will Courtney ever find Brennan again in his current persona of Bax, bad boy rockstar?

Bax has to admit that he hadn't thought of Courtney much during his relationship with his ex. But now that he's in her space, he's finding he likes her, a lot. So much so that their new circumstances aren't even freaking him out the way they should. Is he truly over his ex, though? Is he so over her that he can find happiness with Courtney and their new family?

This is a slightly different take on the rockstar romance, and I like it. It's less about the lifestyle and more about the new relationship. It's got heart, a lot of chemistry, and a lot of lovable characters. I am really excited to read more of the author's rockstars now.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
