April 07, 2016, 0 Comments | Comentarios

In New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby’s brand new series, five best friends open a hot new restaurant, but one of them gets much more than she bargained for when a sexy former rock star walks through the doors—and into her heart.

Seduction is quickly becoming the hottest new restaurant in Portland, and Addison Wade is proud to claim 1/5 of the credit. She’s determined to make it a success and can’t think of a better way to bring in new customers than live music. But when former rock star Jake Keller swaggers through the doors to apply for the weekend gig, she knows she’s in trouble. Addie instantly recognizes him—his posters were plastered all over her bedroom walls in high school—he’s all bad boy...exactly her type and exactly what she doesn’t need.

Jake Keller walked away from the limelight five years ago and yearns to return to what’s always driven him: the music. If he gets to work for a smart-mouthed, funny-as-hell bombshell, all the better. But talking Addie into giving him the job is far easier than persuading her that he wants more than a romp in her bed. Just when she begins to drop her walls, Jake’s past finally catches up with him.

Will Addie be torn apart once again or will Jake be able to convince her to drown out her doubts and listen to her heart?

EXCERPT

What can I say? I've been fan of Kristen's books since... a really long time. And this book didn't disappoint me. Listen to Me is the first book in the Fusion series, and it's a contemporary romance with a lot a lot of good moments.

If you know or don't, Kristen's male characters, let me tell you that they're sexy, sweet, funny, sometimes they can be dumbs, but at the end they're pretty sexys. And well, the female characters are... the best!! I love them, those girls can make a boy cry -in a good way, sometimes.

So now we have Addison Wade and Jake Keller; Addison is the co-owner of the new restaurant in town, she and her friends are a family, they really support each other and they're ready to hide a body if they need to, all to protect a friend. The book is about Addison and Jake's relationship but at the same time is the "introduction" for us to know more about these five girls, they have the best kind of friendship you can desire, and I really loved it.

Addison thinks there's something bad with her, due to her lack of good luck when it comes to men, and it may well be her attraction for the bad-boy kind, so now she wants someone completely different from that, someone who loves her -or at least, who doesn't hurt her. But when Jake walks in her life she can't deny their attraction from each other. Jake was -is- a musician, even when he's not performing anymore, he's making music, but he knows he miss the feeling/emotion of performing in front of a lot of people, and when the opportunity of start performing again appears, he can't say no, and the sexy, sarcastic co-owner of the restaurant is the best plus to his life.

This book plunges us into their story, in the good and bad moments of their relationship, the ups and downs, the funny moments, all that and so much more! Kristen has created another amazing story. Both main character have their past stories, but love is much more powerful, and for what people say, it always win.

Overall, this sexy, sweet, funny, sarcastic, truly, lovely story can give you a good time. And I'm looking forward for the second book that is going out in August! As always, I loved Kristen's writing.
