Review / Release Blitz: The Rush (As Above #2) by Rae Stone


Release Date: September 22

What can I say? Pain and lust make good music.

As his generation’s best guitar soloist and As Above’s lead guitarist, Finland Montgomery has everything he’s ever asked for.

Women? Check.

Whiskey? Check.

Headliner status at the biggest music festival in the country? Double check.

But the one thing Fin never accounted for was a familiar face to come crashing into his life and becoming the focal point of his fascination.

Hardheaded tattooist, Cedar Jones, is no stranger to flirty advances and assholes with complexes. They’re present at every ink shop. Every concert. A problem that has easily been defeated with feisty remarks and her trusty bat.

Until a particular guitarist looks at her like there’s more behind his seemingly empty promises. Like maybe he’s different than those that came before him.

When passions collide, the rush begins and a nightmare threatens to tear them apart, can Cedar and Fin learn to trust each other among the flames of her past?

The Rush is an interconnected standalone and the second installment in the As Above series.

MY REVIEW


Once during her teen years, Cedar met her rockstar idol Fin in an embarrassing way. Now years later, her best friend is engaged to his best friend and bandmate, so they're in each other's orbits again. But though he's seriously interested in her, she literally runs from him every chance she gets. He doesn't know what she's been through in her past, why she jumps when she's touched, and why she always has a bat handy for protection, but he really, really wants to know all these things and more. His swaggering confidence and persistence, coupled with his rockstar appeal, just might charm her, if he has his way.


Fin and Cedar are rockstar romance gold. She's sassy and strong, but thinks she's broken. He's a typical rockstar all sex appeal and confidence, who falls hard, falls first for the only woman to not throw herself at him. There is a whole secondary cast that is begging for their own stories, and actually it's here where the only part of the story appeared that I was unsure of, as they obviously had a connection forged in the first book, which I didn't read, so I felt out of the loop throughout the story. Still, though, I like this story and Fin and Cedar's sizzling chemistry. My favorite part though? Her dad and how he got the last scene in the story, I'm hoping this means his own story is coming.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
