The first in The Barren Thorns trilogy

I never believed in soulmates until I first saw those emerald green eyes looking out at me in the crowd. I wouldn't call it love at first sight. Rather, we knew each other at first sight. Then love came like an avalanche: fast, life changing, and a force of nature.

When Ivy Lippmann accompanied her best friend and roommate to a concert, her whole world and life changes. Soon she's caught up in the life, arms, and love of a world famous rock star. But when things start to move too fast will they be able to maintain their relationship or will it skid off the road and out of control?

Beautiful, elegant, and intelligent, Addison Reade gave up her dreams of being a doctor long ago when she married James Richardson, the lead singer for the world-famous rock band Death Ever After. Instead, she immersed herself in her husband's career and the band's dream of making music. At the same time, she starts her own band, aptly named Spitfire. Unfortunately, years of touring and fame change the Jimmy that Addison once knew. Now only women, drugs, and alcohol consume his world. It is only after Addison serves him with divorce papers that the abuse starts. Like the flip of a switch, the man she once loved becomes a complete stranger to her. When she lands in the hospital after one of Jimmy's rages, she and her Spitfire bandmates decided to hit the road and run away, leaving behind her ex-husband and the out-of-control lifestyle that followed Death Ever After like a plague. It is a stark change moving from California to Ohio, but Addison does so because here she can once again pursue her dream of becoming a doctor. She and her band also find an amazing gig at Tab, one of Cleveland's hottest clubs. Still trying to get over everything that has happened in her life, the last thing Addison needs is to fall in love again. All she wants is to become a doctor, build her medical career, and settle into a world far from the craziness of her past life. That's when she meets Winston Mallory.

"I don't know who you think you are coming here, and acting like you don't care about anything. Now listen here Princess, because I'm not going to repeat myself. Here's a couple of rules that I'd like to enlighten upon you. Number one, you do not talk back to me. And two, you don't mess with me or the rules," his breath fans my face and I close my eyes. The proximity between us was terrifying. "I've dealt with many bitches like you, so I suggest that you follow those rules unless you want to end up like them," - he leans in. His mouth lingers near my ear, "used." ... "... You might think that you run this place, but you do not run me. Understand? And the sooner you understand that, the better it'll be for the both of us," I warn staring right into his eyes before walking away. I was more than amused by his dumbfounded expression. I stop, and turn back around, facing him, "And one piece of advice, know what you're fishing for before you start fishing. What if you find a shark and it reels you in, instead?" ⇒Highest rank: 1 in Chicklit on 01.08.16
