Summary

That smoking hot one-night stand with a former rock star?

Turns out he's my son's new music teacher. Oops.

But I didn't know that the night I met Campbell. All I knew was he played my body the same way he played a guitar - like he owned it.

My libido is still high-fiving me after being self-served for too many years, and we’re both ready for another night or two of fun, especially since we don’t just have chemistry in bed - we connect over everything.

That is, until I learn he’s the man who’ll be coming to my house twice a week to teach my son - the best music lessons money can buy.

Time to turn down the volume on our shenanigans. Only that’s easier said than done.

***

I can rock a guitar solo in front of thousands, I can write chart-topping tunes, and I can absolutely stop thinking about my student’s mother naked.

After all, I’m a single parent too, and I know what it’s like to put your kid first. That’s what I do every damn day.

Trouble is, now that I’ve had Mackenzie, it’s hard - and I do mean hard - to stop wanting her. Harder too when I get to know her, and learn she’s an awesome mom, a great friend, and, oh yeah, she happens to get along perfectly with my daughter.

All we have to do is set some rules. No dating, no nookie when the kids are around, and no one gets hurt.

It’s all working out beautifully. Until we start breaking the rules, one by one.

Making music with her in the bedroom is easy. But will we be more than just a real good time when the music stops?

5 Can This Woman Do No Wrong Stars!!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Can This Woman Do No Wrong Stars!!

Lauren Blakely does it again! When does this woman sleep???

Have you heard the one about the Quiz Nerd and the Rockstar???

If you know me by now then you will know that I have a love for second chance romance stories, it's not even a guilty pleasure, I have no guilt at all, I fly my Swoon flag high people!

This is a first in a new series, but each one can be read as a Stand-Alone.

This was everything you need in a story with the added benefit of kids!

Yes, our two MC's both have teenage children, and I loved them, one was a little music prodigy and the other was an avid baker with her own YouTube channel.

Mackenzie is a woman that has dedicated her life to her son, she has put herself on the back burner, and managed to find a delicate balance between dating and quizzing, meaning she quizzes more than dates!

Campbell had a privileged life when he was younger being a former Rock Star, now days you will find him chilling with Netflix and sampling his daughters baking creations, although he does still sing in a band, he does not use his former stage name, and is now just a part-time singer and music teacher.

In true Lauren Blakely style the witty banter was there in spades, Mackenzie gave as good as she got, and it was hilarious, I had a grin on my face throughout, and Campbell had a dirty mouth, and I loved it!!!

🎧🎧 Narrated by the dream-team of Andi Arndt #SexyVoiceQueen & Sebastian York #SebYes this was just sheer narration perfection.

These two together are a masterclass of narration, my Andi/Seb comfort blanket was wrapped around me and I didn't want it to end, well not until the next one in the series is released!

Sexy & Fun

As always I can rely on Lauren for a sexy, fun listen inbetween the thrillers I go for. I love a happy ending, a strong hero and heroine and a cast of characters that always leave me wanting to hear their story too.

Luckily in this story I know I am getting more! Gimme the next book!

A perfect love story

What a wonderful feel good romance with two single parents who hit it off both in and out of the bedroom. The story is funny, sexy and oh how I loved their dirty talk. A good old fashioned romance with wonderful characters, the children, the brothers, the ex and the best friend, all just wonderful. No angst, no biatching, just a perfect love story. I cannot wait for the next in the series. Sebastian York and the lovely Andi Arndt narrate perfectly.

Always a pleasure !

This is another wonderful collaboration of beautiful voices, together with the supreme "wordsmithery" of Lauren Blakely's art.
Great imagery from the spoken word and chuckles aplenty.
Yet again, Highly Recommended !

Funny and hot story

A new series from Lauren. I repeat a new series from Ms Blakely. I simply am over the moon. The sexiness she can deliver with one story is simply off the charts. I live every single book of hers. And the narrators she is choosing are perfect for each book.

I loved this story Mac and Campbell are one of that couple that it’s hard not to like. You are incredible jealous of their love, chemistry. Simply everything. Lauren shows how much love can overcome. Tragedy. Heartbreak. Everything. All the feels Ms Blakely delivers are worth all the struggles the characters are going through

It is a fun and sexy story. Definitely worth picking up.
