Three scorching hot rocker books by a wonderful author. Highly recommend!
3 Rock Bands Who Rock!
“All I Want” is a book set of the first novels from each series (Cherry Lips, Darkest Days & Feral Silence). From the group’s humble beginnings to rising rock stars, each novel focuses on one group member from each band. The hardest part will be deciding on which one, or maybe all, series you’ll want to read first!

Each book is the first of a different series. All three series are on my highly recommended list.
Hard Rock Crush (Cherry Lips #1)
OMG! This one is amazing. While the beginning is a bit slower paced, the chemistry between Cerise and Liam just explodes when they finally come together. The way Liam reacts to Morris really brings his own pain and issues around the betrayal into perfect focus when he opens up to Cerise. Her revelations really drive home the reasons for her jackrabbiting every time her wounds are exposed. BRAVO! I have to give a giant thank you to the author for including a very special moment for one of her past heroes. It was sheer perfection to get to see one of your guys take that final step.
Hard Rock Tease (Darkest Days #1)
Loved this newest series by Athena. After being introduced in the Feral Silence series, they captured my attention. These boys are a bit rougher around the edges than their counterparts. Noah needs someone to see beyond his perpetual scowl. He’s worn his prickly armor so long he doesn’t have a clue how to let someone in. Jenni is determined to do her best by Noah and the job she has to help him. Noah has a few lessons to learn and Jenni needs to figure out how stand up for herself. They both have some deep wounds, but together they fix what’s broken. The ending is superb. I can’t wait for the next book.
Hard Rock Gaze (Feral Silence #1)
A very nicely done ménage. All three of the main characters have flaws they need to work through. Ailey has a sweet personality but knows where to draw the lines. She’s young and a bit naïve. She struggles with the belief that she has to choose one of the two men who have captured her heart. Jayce is trying to find the balance he needs for his on stage presence and his real life. Neil is driven to succeed and finds that he needs to rearrange his priorities if he wants his life to be more than work. There’s a bit of mystery and danger. The side characters are a wonderful addition to the story. I’m looking forward to Kell’s book next.
Great collection & delicious holiday epilogues!
Re-reading the starts to these 3 series reconfirmed my love of these bands & their stories. And the holiday epilougues we got for each couple were wonderful glimpses into their happiness. So worth the re-read and a great intro for those who are new to these rockers.
A great collection of well written stories. They included great set of couples that had to overcome the pain from their pasts to be able to embrace a future together. Each story had an incredible and enjoyable journey with a storyline that included sexy hot chemistry and strong connection and attraction between the couples as if they were made for each other while based around the holidays.

In this book you get the first three books in Athena Wright’s series. If you love rockers this is a must have for you. I really enjoyed reading about these rough around the edges men and the strong women who can tame them. A recommended read.

Great books in the series. I don’t typically read partial series but in this case I’m glad that I did, it made me want to read the rest of the series. It grabbed my attention and left me wanting for more. I loved the characters and how they interacted with each other. I really liked how believable the characters were. I really enjoyed these books.
Thank you for your review.
Three Book Set:
1. “Hard Rock Crush” – Cerise & Liam – Cherry Lips series book 1
2. “Hard Rock Tease” – Noah & Jen – Darkest Days series book 1
3. “Hard Rock Gaze” – Jayce & Ailey – Feral Silence book 1
Overview:
As with all Ms. Wright’s novels, these three stories follow in the same path: excellent characterizations – the reader gets to “feel” what each individual character is feeling; the story itself is fabulous, as it totally engages the reader into all the happenings of the tale; amazing inter-connectedness between Ms. Wright’s novels and even some crossing between different series; romance, passion, lust, sensuality – all the elements to give life to a great romance. Additionally in Ms. Wright’s books there may be a message or a lesson for the reader to walk away with. Drama, action and adventure, comedy, friendships, family – all the elements that comprise day-to-day living, just on a platform of a rock star life style. Surprisingly thought provoking. Life can be messy and Ms. Wright does not hesitate to shine a light on these parts along with all the good stuff. Excellent reading. Highly entertaining.
Hard Rock Crush – Has some secondary characters from previous series, but I have not read any of those. This can be read as stand-alone. Full length emotional story about two beautifully broken people. Not a story about sex, drugs, and rock n roll, but about the relationship of the band members. The band members make up secondary characters that feels like family, I hope they each get their own book too. I look forward to reading them. Both Cerise and Liam have deep hurt in their past and have not shared that with each other, which leads to misunderstandings. Love and forgiveness will be needed for their HEA. This is not insta-love, this story takes place over years. I liked that their relationship is told with them spending time together, not with too much time spent in their own heads. I loved this book and the extra Christmas epilogue!
I really like The Hard Rock series so much. This is such an awesome value. Let me just say if you haven’t read her series you’re doing yourself an injustice. This is such a great way to be introduced to her writing. Within this trio you get Holiday bonus stories. It’s a fabulous value.
If you’ve already read these stories get this book just for the bonus content alone. You won’t be sorry. The stories tug at your heart and make you think.
My personal favorite story is Hard Rock Crush so I’m going to post my review of it for your perusal.
This is a story about two tortured people trying to find peace and move on with their lives. Both individuals are learning how to cope with their past and struggle to deal with their futures. They are able to find joy in their music and some solace with one another. However, it’s not always easy learning how to move step forward when you can’t let go of the past. Since I don’t do spoilers cause I feel it’s not fair to the author I’lll just to tell you how the book affected me.
It’s a sweet story and at times a sad story filled with emotional and gripping moments. This book possess tenderness, angst, some humor, anxiety and heat. Along the way you get to meet some interesting characters, which I’m sure will be developed in future books. This makes me happy cause I certainly enjoyed their personalities that helped developed this story. The main characters, Cerise and Liam are interesting, smart, normal, flawed people who it’s easy to identify with. It’s a quick read I read it in one sitting. It’s not cause it’s a short story, mainly you don’t want to put it down cause you want to see how it plays out. The part I liked best is that the story is real. What I mean is it’s believable and not over the top. Watching people from two different worlds mingle together can be very interesting and challenging. It’s not always easy to see life from someone else point of view. That’s one of the ways that keeps this story real.
Do yourself a favor and read this story.
This is a great set of starter stories!
