The Prince of Punk Rock ~ Review







Warning: This book is for mature audiences only.


Synopsis:

I love her, but I also love him.
She's everything to me.
He sets my world on fire.
It's our dirty little secret, and it’s about to blow our record deal sky high.
I’m Tommy Blade, the Prince of Punk Rock, and this is our story.
Tommy Blade is a man with a secret. It’s a secret he only shares with one person, Jessi Blade – and the men he surrenders to in the bedroom. Jessi’s only condition to their tumultuous sex life is that the men are one night stands. But when Angel Garcia enters their life, it’s like a match to gasoline.
Mega-talented punk rock singer Angel Garcia, with his smoldering ebony eyes, tight leather pants and unstoppable stage presence, is a man who is used to getting what he wants. He has his eyes set on Tommy Blade as his new lead guitarist, and as his life partner.
Jessi Blade, sympathetic to her husband's bisexual needs, loves him enough to share him, but she never counted on Angel Garcia to test the threshold of her marriage. He makes her life hell . . . and heaven. He’s her damnation and her salvation. She wants to hate him. She wants to despise him. But his charm and raw sex appeal are impossible to resist. Without warning, she finds herself falling in love with her husband's gay lover.
At the height of it all, their punk rock band catapults to stardom.
Their lives are marred by secrecy, deception and sacrifice. Feelings of betrayal, backlash from the sensationalistic media and threats of blackmail send them down a hard road filled with tough decisions.
They aren't your ordinary rock stars. They're radical rock stars. And they have a big story to tell.

REVIEW:
This book is a 4.5 for me! I love Rock n Roll stories....it is one of my favorite genres of romance. Galicki has got a great start to a series here although I see rough roads ahead for her characters.

Tommy is a Rock God with a guitar, unfortunately his band mates aren't as good as he is. Tommy's wife Jessi is a fashionista and would love nothing more than to start her own line but Tommy's music comes first. Tommy and Jessi have a great marriage, so good in fact that Jessi doesn't mind when Tommy brings other men to their bed.....for himself. Yes Tommy is bi-sexual and Jessi's only rule... she needs to be included.

Angel is the lead singer of a group that just lost their lead guitarist so he's looking for a replacement....oh and Angel is gay. He notices Tommy's music first....then he gets a look at him and has to have him in both his band and his bed. Tommy is instantly drawn to Angel but he is loyal to Jessi, they've only ever had one night stands with other guys but Tommy wants more from Angel. Angel is not sure how he will fit into the lives of this married couple and even his mom tells him to watch himself.

As the relationship between the three goes on you can see the love Jessi and Tommy have for each other and they are both willing to extend that love to Angel. Here's where it gets a little dicey....although Angel is pushed into a little experimentation with Jessi he doesn't feel the same connection with her that she does for him. And he really wants Tommy to himself.

While the three get through some large issues in this book I can only see a rough sea ahead. I can't wait for the next book but I think I will be throwing my kindle once I read it!!


Character bios:



Tommy Blade:   Guitar god.  Rising star.  Blond Adonis.   A man with a secret.   In control of everything in his life.  A hard rock guitar player with no intention of changing bands or the genre of the music he loves to play – until he meets mega-talented punk rock singer Angel Garcia.  Once they meet, it’s like a match to gasoline.  He struggles to find the balance between the woman he loves and the man who sets his soul on fire.  He leaves his hard rock roots behind, and becomes The Prince of Punk Rock.







Jessi Blade:  Rocker chick. Fashionista.  Determined.  Strong-willed.  Clothing designer.   Her loyalty to Tommy is steadfast and she guards his secret.  Dedicated to the band.  She’s trying to make a name for herself as a fashion designer, but she can’t tear herself away from the limelight of the stage long enough to launch her rock and roll clothing line.  Her day to day life is what most people dream about.  Fiercely loyal to Tommy, but falling hard for Angel Garcia.  She always knew Tommy needed  man in his life, and she loves him enough to share him, but she’s not going to take a back seat anyone.






Angel Garcia:  Born superstar. Destined for fame.  A showman.  Sex personified.  Perfectionist.   A hopeless romantic.  He has a voice that can shatter glass and bring you to your knees.  He feeds off the energy of the crowd like a drug.  A soux chef in his family’s restaurant by day, a punk rock sensation by night.  He’s a man who knows what he wants and goes after it – and he wants Tommy Blade.



Excerpt:

The faces changed since the last time he was there, but the intention was still the same. It wasn’t a place to socialize or partake in camaraderie or drop in for a drink on your way home. It was meeting place for men interested in casual sex. The backroom served as a shanty for a quick encounter. You could stop in, get your rocks off and be on your way in half an hour. It was a smorgasbord of testosterone, a buffet of muscle and beefcake.
Men flocked around him as soon as he walked through the door. They always did. A guy once told him that it was the mixture of his rugged jaw and strong upper body, offset by the innocence of his big blue eyes that made him so attractive. The ladies always said it was his long blond hair and the guitar.
