About the Book

As the lead songwriter for Jacob’s Ladder, the last thing Gabe Renard needs is a debilitating case of writer’s block. After years of meaningless one night stands, he's finding it hard to pen the love-filled ballads the label is requesting. In an effort to clear his mind, Gabe takes his jeep off-roading in the North Georgia Mountains. When a wrong-turn leads to him getting stuck more than just creatively, he’s forced to call for help. To his surprise, the “Ray” who has been sent by Hart Wreckers to his aid is actually “Rae”—a sexy-as-hell spitfire in a pair of tight-as-hell jeans. The combination of Rae’s sassy mouth and rocking body might be the inspiration Gabe needs. But for the first time since becoming a rock star, his advances have been shot down.

Reagan Hart has never been a fan of musicians. In fact, just the mention of one might cause her to throw a tire tool. Her disgust for them started when she was just eight and her mother ran off with a traveling country singer, and it only worsened when at seventeen, her rocker boyfriend knocked her up before blowing out of town. As a single mother taking care of her family's collision business, Rae doesn't have time for hook ups, much less a relationship. And if she did make time, a musician would be last on her list, even one as good-looking as Gabe Renard.

Can Gabe find the words to prove not only to Rae, but himself, that she’s the only one for him?

Addicted 2 Romance Review

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

This book was freaking wonderful. Seriously I fell HARD for Gabe.

Katie Ashley is an author I have read before. I have not read every book and I read some of the Runaway Train books, but not the first book which is how Gabe is connected to that series. Gabe is the first Runaway Train book heroine, Abby's big brother. He is a rocker for their rock n roll band and his job is to write the songs but he seriously has writers block.

Hanging our with Abby and Jake and their kids he decides to go exploring in Jake's jeep. He ends up in a ditch and when he goes for help, that is when he meets Rae/Ray. Rae is a single mom of the cutest 9 year old and she runs the body shop/tow service with her dad.

Gabe tries to hit on her and she shoots him down, but then the music comes and he decides she is his muse. However she thinks he is a creep and she hats MUSICIANS in a huge way. So how will he get her to give him a chance? Well that is where her 9 year old comes in.

I freaking LOVED this book. It was well written. It is sexy and sweet and I love every single character in this story. I also loved that the story doesn't end at I love you but it goes on to show us how Gabe and Rae manage having a life together with her commitments and his band commitments.

I cannot wait from more in this series.
