WARNING: This book has one girl and five bad boy rockstars. She owns them all–heart, body and soul. Don’t read it unless you like to ugly cry…and also unless you like threesomes, foursomes…and moresomes.“Can one of these five rockstars fill the hole in my heart? Or will I stay broken forever?”Young, dumb, and broke.That’s what started everything. With five dollars in her pocket, and … everything. With five dollars in her pocket, and everything she owns stuffed in the back of her car, Lilith Goode’s life is over. Done. Destroyed.
Ten words. One text. That’s what it took to change the whole world.
A crumpled concert ticket. A chance encounter. That’s what it takes to start all over again.
Five rockstars. One girl. Six dark hearts, six withered souls.
But can one broken person really put another back together again?
And is a cross-country tour the place to do it?

Ah, Groupie. The beloved contemporary reverse harem series-starter to which all other contemporary reverse harems aspire. If you loved families of choice, smokin’ hot sex, and damaged protagonists finding healing through unconventional love, then you owe it to yourself to read this book. Bring tissues, ice cream, and an open mind. (You can thank me later.)
Absolutely another phenomenal read that had me hooked from page one. Lilith is grieving for her father they just passed away and needs to get home but on her way she meets the sexiest band ever, Beauty in Lies and her life changes for the better. This book will give you all the feels and you can feel every emotion that the characters go through. I love the guys, Pax, Muse, Copeland, Ransom and Michael. Everyone has gone through something that leaves darkness in them and meeting Lilith may be their light that they need. Couldn’t get enough of this book and dying too start Roadie.

Wow. What a book! Loved it and found a new author to follow.
Groupie is the first book in a trilogy (Rock Hard Beautiful) but this book can be read as a stand alone if you don’t want to continue with the other two, Roadie and Moxie. We follow Lilith Tempest Goode, and her five famous Rockstars, Paxton, Ransom, Muser, Cope and Michael.
The story is told in POV by everyone. Lilith is such a sad case. Her relationship broke up, her father passed away and she needs to travel from Phoenix to NY with her mother’s ashes to say farewell to her father with $5 in her pocket.
Ordinarily, Lilith wouldn’t have crossed paths with these rockers, but then like attracts like, and all saw something in her, and she in them. All are broken inside and seeking something. After having her car damaged and loosing everything she had, except for her mother’s ashes, drunk, she sought comfort in the arms of these guys.
The story of how they bond, the boundaries imposed and testing new experiences between each other is worth the read. This is a highly an erotic book with MMMFMM, but it has a great story that brings them together as they sort out and address there dark past.
5 Rockstars – 1 Girl. Yup, everything you can imagine happens. So many hot & steamy scenes. Wow. I liked it but some of it was a bit far fetched. Great Narration by Elizabeth Hart & Aiden Snow. Loved Aiden’s english accent.
This book was a fun, smutty delight. I read it on the recommendation of MANY different romance/RH reader groups. One girl, five rock stars, and a bed on a tour bus. She’s sad and broken, but so are they.
The guys are all great characters and I’m sure we’ll learn a lot more about their backstories, demons, and heartaches as the series progresses. And they’re all different, but hot. Something for everyone, ha ha. It’s apparent from the first encounters who already loves the girl – but not everyone is there (yet).
Most of the RH series that I’ve read have a lot of build-up, angst, and slow-burn in the first book. That is not the case with this book. Lillith sleeps with the majority of the band in the first 24 hours. Lots of sex, lots of group sex, some mild M/M action. I mean, they’re rockstars!

I downloaded “Groupie” from KU months ago; right after devouring two of her bully series and falling in love with all things reverse harem. I told myself this year I plan to make a dent in my TBR starting with books sitting in my KU borrowed list.
From the very first page I was hooked! C.M. Stunich grabbed my heart, took it for a ride, and didn’t let go. I was a little nervous reading this because I’ve only read her reverse harem bully romances but she wrote a captivating and compelling story as usual!
Lilith and her men are all beautifully broken and together they start to repair themselves. Watching them heal in such a primal and visceral way felt so real and raw. I devoured this book in one sitting and I’m going to download Roadie next.
I don’t know how she does it but she made me fall in love with her characters and the world she built AGAIN! You need C. M. Stunich in your life!
I dipped my toe into the RH pool with this story . . . and dove in! Some authors make prose flow like creative poetry, C.M. Stunich knocks this one out of the park. Well worth the read for RH lovers!
So much hurt and pain in one bus! Lillian loses her dad, her last good ting in life. She ends up on a bus with beautiful broken rock stars. She ends up with them all on a journey, physically and emotionally!
There was just something about this book that sucked me in and held me entertained til the last page. I loved how all the boys in the band had their pain and background in common yet, their personalities were so diverse. I could always know who was talking without seeing their name, just by how they spoke and what they said. And of course the chemistry between Lilith and the guys was off the charts! Seriously, you want to make sure you have either a battery operated friend around while reading those scenes or a real one!
I am eager to learn more about what makes everybody tick in the next 2 books.
Love this series , it’s captivating & heart wrenching at times …I’ve read it three times & im addicted!!
4.5 Stars .
This is my first book from this author and let me just say I am a fan now . I have become a big fan of the Reverse Harem genre and this book did not disappoint. Something different about this book from other Reverse Harem that I have read is that is wasn’t paranormal . These are just broken rockstars and their new “groupie”. Lil is broken beyond what she has ever felt. She is on her way home to take care of her father when she finds out he passed away . She has no money and no where to go. A concert ticket and a chance meeting change everything for her . Pax, Muse, Ran , Cope and Michael all make up Beauty and Lies . Four of these guys soon fall for Lil but are they to broken to love .
This book is full of amazingly hot sex scenes and so
Much more . If you are a fan of this genre you can not go wrong with this book!
Recently I devoured the Rock-Hard Beautiful series by C.M. Stunich. DEVOURED. For some reason, many Reverse Harem stories are slow burns. Thankfully, this was not so in Rock-Hard Beautiful. The sex was hawt (yes, that is how it is spelled) but the emotionally connections were not pushed aside. In fact, I thought the emotional connections formed were just what this story needed to be believable.
I know…I know. Can a Reverse Harem truly be believable? In this case, it truly was. The interactions between Lilith and her men seemed to fit…to make sense. But don’t take my word for it, read it for yourselves then come back. We can discuss how right I was.
All in all, was a delicious read and I’ve already decided I need more. Oh C.M. Stunich, you’ve created a monster out of me…
Just Wow!
I’ve read a few books by this author before, and I’ve always been impressed with how well written, descriptive, and enticing the stories are. This book, though, is on a whole other level. If you love broken characters, do NOT skip this book. The characters are incredibly enthralling, and the whole book is so deliciously descriptive. I was a big fan before this book, and this has just made me want to read everything she’s ever written.
**Edited to add – I never reread books immediately after I finish them. I like to move on. I couldn’t with this series. I finished Moxie, went back into Groupie to reread a few of my favourite parts, and basically ended up rereading the whole series all over again. It is THAT good. **
(See my whole review of this AMAZING book on my blog, http://juliaswoons.com/2018/08/26/groupie-the-story-of-how-c-m-stunich-has-ruined-me-for-all-other-books/)
My heart is broken in the most hauntingly beautiful way. Just finishing Groupie by C M Stunich I find myself sitting in such raw emotions it’s hard to find words to explain them. As one never short of words, this is not a normal occurrence.
I have said before that I do not really read contemporary romances. If I do, they are mostly the standard contemporary romance of girl meets boy and falls in love, the end. No hype. Just love. I really don’t read reverse harem contemporary romances because honestly, I’ve never been able to grasp how such a relationship could survive in real life. Reverse harem with shifters? Sure. Vampires? Of course! Regular every day typical Joes and Janes. Doubt it. I’m always on the look out for good books. I live for good books. I had a lot of recommendations to read Groupie by C M Stunich because it is so freaking hot and steamy. I read the Hijinks Harem series by C M Stunich and Tate James and loved it as you can tell from my reviews of it. It was light, hilarious, and completely sexy. Why wouldn’t I love Groupie? I was worried I wouldn’t because no one would be shifting, drinking blood, or doing anything else supernatural. Boy, I was so unbelievably wrong..
3.5 stars
I liked this one better than the first book. There was more in depth with the characters. We slowly started seeing into their past. They opened up to Lilith.
If you are looking for smut and cute boys this is it. Out of all the books this one has to be the most in depth but it is still not one I do plan to reread.
This series while the smut is good and it’s a decent break from reality, it just doesn’t seem to have a big plot line.
Sorry if my review sucks but I just got done being sick. I have a headache and I read all three books about two days ago so conjuring up the power to write a review is hard.
5 guys 1 girl seriously hot stuff
I loved this book so much I stayed up all night to read it.
