My Review:

When Jace (use to be called Jason) first meets Mistress V he wants her to hit him till it hurts to help him forget his pain.  His past is full of angst, dark secrets, pain and scars which is very heart wretching and makes you want to cry.  He is fascinated by Mistress V's dance, her body and also her whip which stirs his lust.

Jace is the bassist for the popular hard rock group The Sinners instead he is insecure of his place in the band.  He joined when their original bassist was thrown out and he's afraid the other band members want to replace him.

Mistress V doesn't know what to make of Jace when she first meets him since he doesn't flinch from her whip when she flings it towards him.  Instead he seems to relish the pain if it actually hit him with eagerness.  For once Mistress V wants her original persona Auggie to come out and play with this mysterious client.

Then Jace is injured and his insecurities surface again when he is temporarily replaced by Jon the original bassist.   Auggie is determined to prove to Jace that he deserves to be loved not only by her but by his bandmates.

There were plenty of love scenes which are explicitly descriptive, hot and steamy.  Both of them have no problem exploring their sexuality.

4/5

My Review:

Trey Mills is on the rebound from his love for Brian Sinclair his best friend who is now married to Myrna.  They just had a baby at the beginning of the book.  Both Trey and Brian have had a couple of intimate moments a long time ago but the problem is Trey is bi-sexual and Brian is straight.  Trey finally gets that he will never have a future with Brian and it's time to move on.

He is on his way to his older brother Dare's mansion where his own rock band Exodus Ends are auditioning guitarists to take over one of their member's place because he has carpal tunnel.  While Trey is listening he believes one of the auditioning is actually Brian playing.  When he meets Reagan who sounds just like Brian he falls in lust and is ensnared by her.  Reagan is sexy, gorgeous, witty and not conceited.

Reagan has had her heart broken by her true love Ethan who she caught in bed with another guy.  Trey hides this side from her since he knows she can't handle that very well.  The thing is Ethan is living with Reagan as her bodyguard and friend and he's just a major temptation for Trey.  Ethan still loves Reagan but from afar but he's really attracted to Trey and they finally give into their desire.

I really liked the relationship between Trey and Reagan because it was so sweet and loving (he makes sure he puts her needs first and vows never to hurt her).  The relationship between Trey and Ethan on the other hand was smoking hot and sexy (but I didn't really feel the love just lust).  Wow when all three got together it was combustible!

I found it kind of hard to warm up to Ethan because he never told Reagan about his bi-sexual side and he's quite bossy, rude and crude. 

4/5

My Review (SPOILERS):

I highly recommend this series if you love compelling characters with great storylines and hot sexy descriptive sex scenes!

In Backstage Pass we find out that Sed the Sinners sexy lead singer is into threesomes and stealing his bandmate guitarist Brian's girlfriends.  In Rock Hard we find out why his heart was broken two years ago by the only women he ever loved Jessica Chase.

At the beginning of the book Sed and Jessica are engaged and she has been accepted into Law School.  But Sed doesn't support her dreams of becoming a lawyer and forbids her to go so she leaves him.

Two years later she is into her fourth year of Law School but her instructor fails her and she has to take the class all over again.  Her best friend Beth gets her a job as a stripper. The instructor hates her with a passion because she thinks she gets too much of the male attention.

That night Sed and the rest of the Sinners happen to go visit that same strip club where Jessica is working for Brian's bachelor party.  When Sid realizes it's Jessica on stage he drags off and covers her up which causes a riot and they are kicked out but not before getting hurt themselves.  Brian gets two black eyes, Trey is hit in the head by an aluminium bat and Sid has his throat bruised and almost crushed.

When Sid finds out that Jessica needs money he leaves it with her friend another stripper.  She doesn't want it and thinks he's controlling her again.  She finds out where they are living and decides to give back the money to Sid.  Myrna sees her and offers her a job as her assistant which she accepts.  Sid comes in with three fangirls and is really surprised to see Jessica but that doesn't stop him from having a threesome.  She becomes jealous and yanks them off of Sid and then they have wild mad sex.  Both of them decide to enjoy each other for two months with sex but not have a relationship.  Let the fun and games begin.

Sed feels very responsible for his Sinner family and would do anything for them and can come on strong and overbearing and arrogant.  But he also has a softer side too which he shows in Rock Hard.

By the end of the book I really believed that Sed had redeemed himself and he seemed really whipped.

Jessica is independent, intelligent, attractive and very ambitious women.  She has a bad temper to go with her sensual aura which she doesn't know she has.  I didn't feel that Jessica redeemed herself by the end of the book.

They have a very volatile relationship and it was quite obvious they still loved each other, though they don't really know each other.  They both have voracious sexual appetites and being daring.

Wow the sex scenes were really hot and explicitly described (man I had to cool myself down with a fan and cool water)!  I recommend reading the part in the restaurant (wink wink)!

Trey also has a very interesting storyline which Sed and Jessica are a part of!

4.5/5

My Review:
 
Wow was this book hot or what?  I highly recommend this series if you love rock and roll, hot rockers and even hotter sex!
 
Brian is the son of a seventies rock god and is the creative force of the band.  When he falls he falls very hard and is a one woman man.  He is currently nursing a broken heart after he found out his ex-girlfriend cheated on him.
 
Myrna is a Human Sexuality professor who is divorced and running scared from her ex-husband.  When Myrna finds out her favorite band "The Sinners" are in the hotel bar she gets to know all the band members but has her eye on Brian.  They embark on a weekend fling and everytime they make love he hears a song rift in his head, he's found his muse!
 
He's falls very hard for the sexy and hot professor and is determined to win her in everyway (heart, body and soul).  Myrna also falls for Brian but she is cautious about starting a relationship with him because of the abuse her ex-husband excused her of (she has a restraining order on him).  She prefers a casual fling where she can live out her dirtest and erotic fantasies but is haunted by an inner voice that says she is bad for wanting it!
 
The sex scenes were very intense and hot and exciting!    
 
5/5
