Summary

Holloway: I’m the lead guitarist for Wayward Lane and I love everything about my rockstar life. Everything except my security detail. And the more popular our band becomes, the less freedom we have. All it takes is one overzealous fan and I find myself constantly shadowed by the one bodyguard I love to tease and evade: Dawson Everly. Mr. Tall, Dark, & Uptight lives by strict rules, and I’m a free spirit, so naturally, we argue at every turn. But my flirtation and his aggravation is a combustible mix and suddenly I discover there are some orders I don’t mind taking. And those strings I usually avoid? They start looking pretty good. Thing is, Dawson has a son and I never imagined I’d fall, let alone for a family man.

But every rockstar has their day - is it crazy that I want Dawson to be mine?

Dawson: As a bodyguard for Wayward Lane, I’ve seen all the rockstar shenanigans. The biggest troublemaker? The guy who loves to escape his detail: guitarist, Iain Holloway. He’s stunning, spontaneous, and a gigantic pain in my… you get the picture. I’ve tried to keep my professional distance but it’s getting impossible to ignore the attraction between us. But falling for a rockstar is a risk I’m not prepared for. I have an eight-year-old son, Jaxon, who means everything to me. The single dad guilt is hitting hard when I’m on the road and the time has come to make a choice.

Only, my heart doesn’t belong solely to my son anymore. It turns out, Iain has managed to find a way in there too.

B-Mine is a slow burn, single dad, opposites attract, MM rockstar romance filled with fiery chemistry, unexpected love, and a heartfelt, hard-fought HEA.

cute Rockstar, Bodyguard Romance

Iain and Dawson are like oil and water, they shouldn't be drawn to one another (Ian is a pain in Dawson 's ass), but their attraction is undeniable. Another well written story from this lady, I do like her work. This series is shaping up nicely, there's a bit of suspense, a little resistance to romance, Dawson has a young son, and doesn't know whether or not he can trust the seemingly flighty Iain with him. I've just listened to the audio book of this, narrated by Zachary Zabo. He's not a narrator I've come across before, however, he does a good job of bringing the characters alive.

A good bodyguard - rockstar story

Story: A somewhat typical, but enjoyable rockstar - bodyguard story. The characters were interesting and the pacing of the story worked well, keeping my interest throughout. I kind of wished for some more twists or original ideas, but it's an enjoyable story anyway, so can easily recommend. The writing style was good.
Narration: I really liked the performance - there was a clear difference in style between the MCs, which is not always the case and which I truly appreciate. Easy to follow narration with good acting.

MM Band romance

MM Band romance

Loving this series. I enjoyed this book and audio and can't wait for the next in the series.

We meet Iain and Dawson, the band member and his bodyguard. The book is brilliantly written and handles family and band issues well.

I won't ruin it, but there is a great storyline with a stalker that brings this whole book to life. I can't wait for book three in this series; I'm really enjoying them.

Zachary Zaba brings these two main characters to life. The narration is great, although I speeded up this audio to 1.20 on Audible, which is usual for me.

great audio

I have now listened to the audio version narrated by the awesome Zachary Zaba. I haven't heard his work before but it was really good and dangerously hot. His growly Daddy voice made me blush.

I enjoyed this! The dynamic between Dawson and Iain is amazing and I loved the beginning of their story. All that delicious tension. Dawson also had the most amazing Daddy Dom vibes, and it's been forever since I read a Dom/brat pairing, and I enjoyed that aspect of it very much. The side characters were fun. The plot was a little superficial, it was mostly focused on the romance, but that's the way I prefer it. It jumped around in time a bit, which I found distracting, but overall it's a solid story and I enjoyed it. Recommended if you enjoy the tropes.

Beautiful story

I really love the bodyguard/rockstar trope. it's very fun and the author did a fantastic job with this book. Beautiful writing, great pacing and wonderful characters. Dawson and Ian had fantastic chemistry. Their banter was so entertaining and I loved their dynamic. The suspense subplot made the story even more interesting and I really liked the side characters. Great book I'd love to read the rest in the series.
The narrator was brilliant and did an absolutely fantastic job voicing the characters and bringing the story to life.

A rockstar and his Bodyguard

For me, it was the author's first book and I found that B-Mine can be read well as a standalone.
It's about a rock star, specifically the guitarist of the band and his bodyguard. The story isn't new, but it's entertaining as it's well written. I really liked Iain and Dawsen. There are some interesting themes such as single dad, age difference, protective bodyguard, a hot guitarist and a stalker.
The romance starts slow as Dawson tries to keep his distance professionally. The banter between Dawson and Iain was entertaining and the two can't seem to let go of each other. The chemistry between the two was good!
The stalker adds tension to the story, but doesn't take up too much of the story.
B-Mine is an entertaining and sometimes thrilling, but sometimes somewhat predictable story that kept me entertained.

The narration by Zachary Zaba was good. He gave each character their own unique voice and feeling and brought the story to life.

More Rockstar Greatness! Terrific Story & Listen🎧

Ava Olsen rocks and so do her books, “B-Mine”, the second book of her “Wayward Lane” series and it is just as amazing as the first book,”Punk-In”, each book features different band member and this one is guitarist Iain Holloway and bodyguard, Dawson Everly’s story. The two are complete opposites yet they are drawn to one another, though they did fight it every step of the way. Dawson is a single dad and does not have time for romance, he also has to think of his son before letting anyone into his life. Iain is just a player, and there is never a lack of willing players, but winds up attracting one who becomes obsessed and starts to stalk him, and he has no clue who it may be. Dawson is on the case and has the team investigating it and until the person is caught he will guard him himself. With the two spending more time together how long would it be before they give in to the chemistry between or will they just continue to deny it? I enjoyed this book immensely, like the first book, the writing, plot and world building is fantastic, as are the character growth and development. It was great to watch these two dance around each other and then navigate a new relationship. There is a perfect balance of drama, relationship, with the threats and the label, angst, mystery, thrilling and suspenseful moments, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn, but so worth the wait, romance. Ava Olsen, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride. 

🎧📚🎧Zachary Zaba continues to rock it out, bringing these characters to life. He understands the characters he is portraying, gives each their own distinct voice, making it easy to follow along and tell who is who. I liked how he took each role and made it his own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters to sound. You could hear how much heart he puts into his performance as he captures all the characters’ emotions, and has you feeling them all. He is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

Rockstar MM romance with heat and heart

Starting a series part way through can be risky and this was my first book from this author so I didn't know what to expect, but it was great - the story really did stand alone, whilst sitting comfortably in a setting where I can see how book 1 slotted in (but without feeling I was missing tons of backstory) and can see the future-echos of book 3 too. I really enjoyed the pairing of stoic bodyguard Dawson and flirty but relationship-averse guitarist Holloway. It has a great balance between a slow(ish) burn romance with a fast-paced story and a nice dollop of tension both from the interplay between the characters and the overall plot (no spoilers!) that held my interest from start to finish. The audiobook is really enjoyable, the narrator Zachary Zaba's performance is super energetic and engaging and brought the characters to life nicely. I'm off to read book one now...

Comfort story

I enjoyed the story. The rock star and bodyguard story pretty much follows the classic model. The characters are both likable. There isn’t a lot of drama. They relationship meshes smoothly. My only negative is the voice used for Dawson, I felt it is distracting. I just couldn’t relate that voice to a bodyguard. I felt it was a rough, scratchy voice of an old man who smoked all his life.

The perfect listen while on the work grind

There aren't enough words in the English dictionary to describe how enjoyable this listen was for me! The narration by Zachary Zaba was engaging and it was so cool to hear him voice Bebe. There was a good difference between Iain and Dawson’s voices which made the story more immersive. Excellent work from Ava Olsen as always!
