Fatal Desires Fatal Cross Live!Book 1For years, I have worked behind the scenes for my cousin’s band, living my life as simply as possible. Running the inner workings of a rock band is the only thing I know to do. My only saving grace is a long vacation soaking up the sun in some exotic locations around the world between tours. One steamy night on an island with Taylor Vaughn, the guitarist for … the guitarist for the rock band Fatal Cross, and my world is turned upside down. When he doesn’t return my calls, I end up going through hell alone. Little do I know, he’s fighting his own personal demons.
When he fills in on my cousin’s tour for a few weeks, I am forced to work with the man who stole my heart months before on a private island. It isn’t easy being around him, but I am determined to keep my head low and pray this tour ends soon, but does anything ever go as planned?

I love a good rock romance and this one did not disappoint. This book was a page-turner that I read in one sitting. The push and pull between Taylor and Cora was interesting and fun.the storyline was believable with the real life situations in the music industry. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
Who doesn’t like a hot rocker story? This is a spin off of the Glory Days series. I didn’t realize that until I was about half way through the book. However, it didn’t stop me from continuing Cora’s and Taylor’s story. Cora works for her cousin’s band and she has a tryst with Taylor, a guitarist from another band, Fatal Cross. They have an incredible time and then go their separate ways. After their brief, but very hawt time together they both end up dealing with some very intense situations. They both could have leaned on each other but couldn’t connect (you must read this because I can’t explain and give it away!). All of a sudden they are slammed back into a situation where they are forced to work together. The tension is so thick between the two that you can literally feel it as you are reading. They both are incredibly stubborn and have an intense back and forth throughout the entire book that when they finally fall together you really feel it deep down.
“Rule number one…don’t sleep with rockstars who’ve dipped their pen in so much ink that their cocks are stained from all the attention.”
This is one of my favorite lines. Again, both of the characters are super strong willed and stubborn so when they bump heads it gets crazy!
As the story progresses you get to see how these two eventually get back to each other, even if it involves tragic situations. This is one of those stories that is quick and easy to read but will have your emotions all over the place. As I said at the beginning, this is the first book I have read by this author, and I didn’t realize this was a spin off series, but I am looking forward to continuing this series as well as going back to read Glory Days.
I’m a sucker for a rock star romance, especially when they’re done well. I went to bed and read the whole thing in about 3 hours before going to sleep.
These are basically good guys that play music. They aren’t partying twenty four seven. They take their careers seriously. There is also a family vibe about them. There were definitely moments that had me crying, based on what what happening to the characters or how they were feeling about things that had happened or things that they’d done.
Coraline has been on the road with her cousin’s band since she was eighteen. She loves taking care of the guys in Glory Days. Not only is she a roadie, she is also their tour manager. She keeps them in line and knowing where they need to be at all times. Having done this for a bit, she has one rule. Don’t mix business with personal. Until her cousin’s band toured with Fatal Cross.
Taylor Vaughn was taken with Coraline from the get go. He loves everything about her. Tracking her down in the Azores was the only way he knew how to get her alone and away from work. He had to try. He thought they had a fantastic couple of days, but when he went home after that, he was so busy and something bad happened. He knew he would see her in a few weeks, so he wanted to wait to explain until he could tell her face to face. He didn’t want to talk to her when she had called because he had been struggling with his sobriety and didn’t want to have her see him like that. He wanted to keep the bad away from her. Now it might just cost him everything.
I can’t wait to read the next book in the series ‘Fatal Temptations’.
So this story starts with a major tragedy (possibly a trigger for someone that has been through a miscarriage)
I lived these 2 characters and the fact that it went between 2 main rock bands with a couple added in.
The emotions were well written and made the reader really pay attention to how the characters felt.
There were a couple of spots where I felt the storyline was just a little off ( between time jumps and I’m not 100% sure about the hospital scene and how the guys wlk out and she is having thoughts to when Taylor walks back in and she doesn’t seem as upset as her thoughts made it seem earlier.)
I recommend this book if you enjoy rock band /contemporary romances
First time I’ve read this authors work and first in this series.
It didn’t disappoint…Holy batmans balls… what a great read.
I literally picked it up and could not stop reading this bad boy!!
Loved the story of Taylor and coralline… a touch of angst, a smidge of heart break and a boat load of ‘FEELS’ throw in a dash or 3 of excitement and BOOM…a fantastic book!!
I’m off to read some more by this author because DAMMMMM it was good!!
