Dixon: Courting Chaos Book 4
by Heather Young-Nichols
This book is awesome! It’s basically a continuation of the previous three books, but focused on Dixon Dodge, lead guitarist for the Courting Chaos band. While focusing on Dixon, it also tells the story of Barrett Powell, the personal assistant to Lawson, the band’s manager. I fell in love with Dixon right away, he’s gorgeous, smart and passionate and the other girlfriends of the band think he “needs” a woman. I also fell in love with Barrett and her back story! Overall a fun and sexy romantic read!
This was a really good story, sweet and romantic. Dixon is the lead guitar player of Courting Chaos and he’s sexy, handsome and swears love is not for him. He liked his rockstar lifestyle and was not about to give it up. In walks Barrett as the new assistant to their manager and it was just sweet. She looks like a sexy librarian and when his eyes locked on to hers it was on! This story worked, they were all friends and I loved the interaction of the guys with each other and their girlfriends.
I love Heather Young-Nichols romance books, and the Courting Chaos series is no exception. In DIXON, we meet Barrett and get to know Dixon, the lead guitarist for the band, Courting Chaos. Barrett is trying to make a name for herself and follow her career dreams after a rough childhood. Dixon is dealing with his bandmates and their girlfriends on tour. Once he meets Barrett, he starts thinking it’s time for him to maybe follow his bandmates’ lead and stop being such a stereotypical rock star.
I enjoyed watching Barrett and Dixon fall for each other, while navigating her position as the band’s assistant, PR person, and the personalities on tour. Ms. Young-Nichols writes steamy scenes and cute dialogue that keeps me turning the pages and wanting more.
If you enjoy contemporary, rock star romances, new adult, and guys that have heart, the Courting Chaos series, and DIXON are for you!
When Barrett Powell takes on the role of PA to up and coming rock band, Courting Chaos, her first meeting with CC guitarist Dixon Dodge is anything but the best experience. But during their time on their current tour, neither can resist the growing attraction and yearning they’re feeling for each other. Whether it interferes with their professional goals, or despite their personal backgrounds and experiences, nothing seems to stop the force of the incredible rightness of their being together. Ms Young-Nichols has once again given us an incredible romance between two people drawn together by that inexplicable pull of love. This series is amazing, and speaks to romance readers young and old (I’m 66 and love it). I’ve included this author in one of my top 12 whenever I’m selecting my next books to read. I highly recommend this book and series to anyone who loves to read romance, joy, humor, depth, and people.

I loved Dixon and Barrett’s story.
Barrett didn’t have a good childhood, and now in her adult life she wants to prove to herself that she is capable of a better life. When she is hired as PA of Courting Chaos, she’s very happy to know that she will not be alone, since her best friend is also on tour because she is one of the band members’ girlfriend.
Dixon always said that love would not happen to him, but he didn’t expect to meet Barret. The attraction between them is immediate, but both didn’t expect the “distraction” that it would be.
I loved the story, the characters and being able to see the other members of the band again. I recommend the reading.
Bad first impression are difficult to change, but sure is fun watching Dixon try. Lots of angst and drama as he goes about trying to prove he’s really a good guy at heart. Emotional drama as the romance heats up on the way to the HEA.
Oh My Goodness. I have loved reading these amazing books. You feel so invested in the characters and story when you read them.These books were gripping, well written and the chemistry between the characters was just awesome!!

Barrett jumps at the chance to be the assistant to the manager of Courting Chaos. When she first meets Dixon sparks fly between them but she wants to remain professional so she doesn’t chance her job. Dixon sees Barrett and knows she is what he wants and he slowly breaches her defenses until she lets him in. Will her relationship with Dixon set her back on her career path? Can they make it work?
This is a great story that will captivate you from beginning to end. The chemistry between them is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

had been waiting anxiously for Dixon’s story. I wasn’t disappointed. You felt like part of Courting Chaos in each story. I do have to say that there were some things that happened that made me chuckle. A couple of times I wanted to hit both of them upside the head. Can’t wait to see what comes next for this author.

Highly entertaining, sexy, fun and engaging romantic journey filled with thrilling charters, witty banter, laugh out loud moments and exciting passion….. was an emotional roller – coaster of the best kind from beginning to end. Great reading experience!
Having read the other books in this series, I was looking forward to reading Dixon’s story. He is quite content playing the part of the lead guitarist, leaving a trail of women behind in his wake. After a misunderstanding, he has to redeem himself in the eyes of his manager, his bandmates and the victim of the misunderstanding, Barrett. As he works to redeem himself, he discovers he actually likes Barrett and enjoys spending time with her. Barrett is taking her job seriously and is trying to keep her distance from the sexy guitarist. Plenty of drama as this story unfolds. It’s tough being the single guy (attracted to a single woman who just happens to work for his manager) when his fellow bandmates have all paired up. It gets even trickier because Barrett is best friends with Paige, girlfriend of bassist, Booker. Enjoyed seeing how the story unfolded. Wonder what will be next for Courting Chaos…
I was glad to get Dixon’s story after reading about the rest of the band. I liked how strong and hard working Barrett was. I thought Dixon and Barrett were good together and I am glad in the end that Barrett stayed with the band. I also liked that everyone was close together.

You can never make a second first impression. How do you make up for such a blunder of a first impression? That is the exact question on Dixon’s mind after he makes a colossal mistake when he first meets Barrett. I loved watching him try to prove to her who he is at heart. Loved watching Barret and Dixon evolve and seeing their feelings grow.
This is a great series. I love the interactions between all the characters. I read so many books that at times it’s difficult with all the series to keep track of who is with who, what happened in their journey to love, the relationships between everyone, but I can honestly say I have not had that problem with this series at all. Something with this group sticks with me. Almost like they are a part of my life, part of my group I keep close. To me, that says a lot about the writing, the character development, the authors ability to bring her characters to life. I’m so sad this is the end of the series. I can guarantee this series is on my must-read-again list.
The great character and storyline development kept me totally engaged throughout the entire book! I always enjoy reading what this author writes!
Wild Ride of EXCITEMENT!
Engaging and enjoyable read that at times I had a hard time putting down. The chemistry was sexy and incredibly intense from one chapter to the next always keep me guessing throughout the unbearable twisted suspense. A great read that I enjoyed and gladly recommend.
Barrett and Dixon are just what I needed. I loved this series, especially because we get to see other characters and catch up with them. Dixon and Barrett start off not wanting to be in each other’s orbit but the attraction is hard to fight and their chemistry makes it inevitable. I couldn’t get enough and had a hard time putting the book down.

We finally get to see what’s going on in Dixon’s head – it’s an odd place, be warned. He’s the band’s joker but there’s also a wide streak of protector in there too. Barrett’s never felt fully in control of her life and she’s never had a comfortable sense of stability thanks to a childhood “in the system”. Odd that touring with Courting Chaos could give her both of those. I loved this book so much. I have adored every second I’ve spent getting to know these characters. They feel like a part of my family now. The guys are exactly like the brothers I never want, and the girls are the sisters I never had. In between wanting to cuddle Dixon and Barrett close, telling them everything would be alright and wanting to smack some sense into both their stubborn heads, this zany group had me nearly crying with laughter. I’m absolutely distraught that this series is over now.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through Booksprout.
Let me start off by saying I have been hooked on the Courting Chaos series since I stumbled upon the first one and each one gets better. I loved Dixon and Barrett from the get-go. I literally laughed out loud at the moment they met, and adored his “oh no what have I done” reaction to his initial greeting of her. Barrett’s tough girl exterior made her fit seamlessly into the family and I was so glad that the story wasn’t just about Dixon changing his ways, but about her growth too. If you are here for a friends to lovers story line this book will be right up your alley. Just be prepared because the sweetheart that is Dixon will end up on your book boyfriend list too. Now here’s hoping this isn’t the end of the Courting Chaos stories because I need more, but in the meantime you’ll find me rereading all 5 books!

Of course I loved “Dixon” by Heather Young – Nichols. This whole series has been great and this book is just a continuation of a great story line and fabulous writing that brings these rock star characters and the women who love them to life.
The series is very entertaining and each book leaves you wanting more. I’ll be curious what comes next for this series….
Great addition to your book collection.
Happy Reading…enjoy!
