Love S*x Music by Michelle A. Valentine is a conte that begins with a off-limits and scandalous romance between a girl band member and her music producer. Not your quintessential rock star romance as it embodies so much more, Love S*x Music exposes the masked temptations of the music industry with unexpected twists swirling through the narrative. The solo histories are given with dramatic details of these two early life years where you get to know the characters deeply. Like a rock romance with a sweet epilogue.
Meghan Kelly did a bang-up performance. Each character receives a distinct voice. Every sentiment is brought out with just the right amount of angst.

Audio Review
I love Rock Star Romance but this is the first one I have listened to. Wow what a fantastic job Meghan Kelly the narrator did, I was drawn in I was captivated and I spent most of that day walking around with my headphones on because I didn’t want to pause the book for one minute.
Laz a reformed addict, a retired pop star now turns his hand to producing, he has a lot riding on this band he is about to form being successful but he knows the music industry so all he needs to do is find the right girls who can not only sing but who gel together without any drama …….
Drea has had an uphill battle with her life she loves music but has always pushed her sister to succeed while she takes a back step but things are about to change when her sister is singing in a bar and she is singing along in the crowd. Money is tight so when a hot tattooed guy hands her a business card and asks both her and her sister to audition for a group he is forming it doesn’t take much to convince her to try out.
This book has characters that you can’t help falling in love with, two broken souls helping each other mend and become strong. This book really pulled on my heartstrings I loved the plot I loved the chandelier I loved the narration. This narrator did a fantastic job with al, the different characters her voice range was perfect and you always knew what character she was portraying. I love Michelle A. Valentines writing and I love Meghan Melly’s narrating.
5 Star review of Love S*x Music by Michelle A Valentine
Audio Review:
Wow, this book was such a fantastic listen. Meghan Kelly the narrator did a fabulous job. Not only was I riveted to the story but her narration had me hooked from the first chapter.
Ms. Kelly has a voice for each character and you are able to distinguish clearly which does not always happen when you are listening to an audio book.
What an absolutely passionate and intense story Love S*x Music is and Ms. Valentine had me captivated from start to finish.
This is a rock story with heart. The main characters have been broken and put back together and it was fantastic to see how they grew as characters throughout the story.
Michelle is amazing writer and I loved this book so much. From the engaging scenes in this book, to the smoking hot chemistry between Laz and Drea, Love Sex Music was just the book I’ve been looking for. One of my favorite kinds of books is the “rocker romances” with sexy rock stars and the woman they can’t get enough of and this hit every note for me. It also quickly became one of my favorite books. Michelle you rocked this one and I will love Laz for a long long time.
Amazing!
I wasn’t going to listen to this audiobook – I kept passing it by every time I saw it displayed and then, I saw it again last week and decided to download it and see exactly why this book was haunting me.
Now I know! It is one of the most powerful and beautifully written stories I think I have ever read and to add to that, it has been narrated by Meghan Kelly with her fabulous array of ‘voices’ that just match the story perfectly.
This was such an amazing experience for me to feel as I could easily experience all that the characters were experiencing, elation, happiness, fear, sadness, love and relief.
Relief that it all came together in the end to such a perfect climax and I just loved it all.
This is a book or audiobook really worth while reading or listening to and I cannot recommend it enough.
I listened to the audiobook version and my voluntary and unbiased review is recorded above.
*4,5 stars*
A different read from what I’m used to by the but that doesn’t mean it’s not a good one! Definitely a story you don’t want to miss out on 🙂
Drea never had much confidence about the way she looks and how she sings, not like her stepsister Candace. But when Laz discovers them both in a night/dance club, the ball starts rolling and it looks like her and her sister’s dream may come true after all.
Laz has been in the dark side for such a long time and after sobering up he takes his chance to get a girl group together but most importantly, get their star rising to fame! What he doesn’t count on, is falling for a woman he never thought was possible but nothing is always as easy and when Drea’s past comes back to haunt her, they’ll both have to fight for what they truly want and maybe, just maybe, they will have whatever their heart desires…
Love S*x Music was a rock star romance with a difference. This was a story of second chances and believing in yourself and I enjoyed it. It was sexy and steamy with some drama and angst included. The author touched on some difficult themes inclusive of addiction, blackmail and rape.
The main characters had intense chemistry from the start and they were likable and will have you rooting for them and their forbidden relationship. The secondary cast of characters added support and a touch of hilarity to the story.
I listened to the audible version of this story which was narrated by Meghan Kelly. Her performance was exceptional with both the male and female characters. She brought the characters to life and I really enjoyed listening to her.
Love S*x Music was a great read and I would highly recommend it to all lovers of rock star romances.

Laz was a one time big star with his band but that all fell to pieces and went away when he made a few bad choices . He now has a chance to redeem himself, he has this amazing idea but if only he van get the backing he needs.
