  Levi Quinn has it all—money, groupies, a panty-melting smile, and a really big d*ck. At least, he had it all. Until an angry redhead joined the Taint world tour and turned his life upside-down. Levi fell in love with her. His bandmate did too. It did not end well. Brielle Kagawa doesn’t keep company with rock stars, but when this gifted cellist finds herself kicked out of the Orchestre de Parisan all-expenses-paid gig in the south of France seems too good to be true. Because it is. The man footing the bill might be a disorderly drunk, but he has an offer she can’t refuse—stay in his chateau and play for the month. No strings attached. Yeah right. The truth about rock stars is that they’re awfully good players, but Levi isn’t the only one who knows how to master a set of strings. He’s broken-hearted. She doesn’t have a heart to break.   A rock-star with a whole lot of baggage. This cover completely drew me in along with the fact that Levi is the typical but troubled rock-star and having read reviews for the previous book along with the blurb I was eager to read his story. I haven't read the previous book and it didn't matter, I could pretty much read between the lines of all that had gone on before. A good chunk of this book is Levi grieving and feeling sorry for himself and his anger over losing Ali to his band-mate Cooper and then his downhill spiral with drugs and alcohol. Levi believes he has lost the woman he loves but no amount of fighting for her will get her back when she is madly in love with someone else. Levi's demise comes when Ali and Cooper announce their wedding but at the same time, it saves him. Levi first meets Brielle who is a beautiful cello player at Coopers wedding, she's a take no crap kind of girl and doesn't fall for Levi's rock-star charm. Brie gains the name AFG from Levi which means Angry French Girl and despite their outward acts of annoyance towards each other, there's a whole lot of chemistry between them too. I enjoyed closer, one minute I was laughing at Levi's ridiculous comments and the next completely drawn in by either one of the character's anguish or hurt. Closer brought out a good mix of emotions and it was also a hot read, Levi and Brie have some hot passion and chemistry. I liked Brie she's a straight talker and definitely could put this annoying cocky rockstar in his place, which she did plenty of times, she saw Levi for who he was and not just the Rockstar he portrayed. A life of a rockstar and all the downs that come along with it, loss, grief, struggles and addictions and in the middle of it all true love is found. A good story, I'm glad I didn't read the first book, I liked this just the way it was without having any judgement on Levi or anyone with what may have happened before. I know there were threesomes, m/f/m and a whole lot of other stuff including a love triangle in the previous book but obviously, Levi just hadn't met his girl yet. Another great read from Carmen Jenner and a great conclusion for Levi, an enjoyable rock-star romance that had me eagerly turning the pages.

It’s need. “Please let me go,” she begs. I study her face. “I don’t think you want me to let you go.” “You’re wrong.” I let her wrist slip free of my grasp and search her gaze. “Prove it.” “I do not have to prove anything to you.” “Then quit looking at me like you want me to fuck you, because it’s torture,” I snap. A week worth of pent-up frustration, of wanting this woman who refuses to give in, and never backs down. “It’s fucking torture the way you look at me.” ___________ ★ BLURB ★ Levi Quinn has it all—money, groupies, a panty-melting smile, and a really big d*ck.
