It all started with a song.

Roxana Nights was late to another gig, thanks to her first love, and drummer. It’s been years since she left Jordan, but he won’t let her go. Then she hears a voice that pulls her under a spell and changes her whole world.

Trevor Malone just moved to Seattle with his band. Music is his only passion, until he lays eyes on Roxana. He’s never felt anything as strong as the pull to her. Now he needs to find a way to introduce her to his world.

There’s only one problem. A rival clan won’t rest until they’ve taken Trevor’s down. Unwilling to let old grudges die, they target Roxy. Trevor will do anything to keep her safe.

Roxy will find that the world she writes is closer to reality than she ever imagined. She’ll also learn that not all monsters are evil, though some are ruthless.

Will love stay strong when the past comes out? Can they survive the centuries old vendetta?

Excerpt

She slipped past him, and onto the wings of the stage. Her gaze fell on Mr. Voice who was tall, dark and smokin’ hot.

Holy shit, I want to lick him.

Scuffed combat boots were laced up over black leather pants that clung to muscular thighs, and his black shirt molded to the most impressive set of abs she had ever seen. Roxy wanted to trace the ridges with her fingertips.

He turned, his voice dropping low as his eyes locked on hers. His words enveloped her. “… you’re the only one.”

Her heart paused a beat before slamming into her chest at a rapid pace. His full mouth lifted into a grin that spoke of confidence as he held her full attention. Entranced, she fell deep into his eyes and the world stopped.

Until a drumstick hit him in the head. He looked over his shoulder and shrugged sheepishly at his drummer before turning back to launch into the next verse.

Mikey gently shook her shoulder. “Hey, Rox, come on. We have to warm up.”

Her head bobbed in a nod at her brother, but she didn’t look over. She muttered, “Yeah, give me a minute,” or longer.

As if he heard, Mr. Voice glanced over and winked at her before the next song started. “Blinded by beauty, falling at first sight, head over heels…” There was raw passion in his voice, and she couldn’t help wishing he was singing about her.

My review

Everything is coming up Roxy!

4.5 stars

Hotness factor: Sexy times thy name is Trevor…

Brandy L Rivers is back with a new series The Others of Seattle because Others are people too, they like poetry slams, all sort of coffees, the 90’s grunge movement and garage bands. I’m not going to lie, it felt like I was watching Cameron Crowe’s Singles at the beginning, I love this movie. You know me and blurbs, I read it a long time ago but could only remember that it was about Roxana and Trevor finding each other.  And werewolves, and music, and Seattle.

Roxana, singer by night and writer by day heard Trevor’s voice, singer and werewolf by night, dilettante by day, he knew instantly that she was his mate and actively started to seek her out, you know how it goes.  Her ex had issues and a zipper problem, which I totally called (I watch too much telly). And he had a Scottish stalker (who doesn’t nowadays), love it!

Brandy L Rivers did what she does best, a fantastic character driven novel. The pace is much slower from what I’m used to but that’s how you expect from a book that values good dialogues, great supporting characters over cut and dry action to be. That being said, it has actions, this author knows how to write action scenes. I also personally appreciate the lack of the ‘p’ word and the ‘c’ word is never used in a conversation. Call me a prude but soul mates shouldn’t refer to their parts as ‘p’ or ‘c’.

The Irish lads and lasses were funny and so well behaved. Yes, I’m talking to you Edenton Others! Take a page from their book! J Roxy and Trevor, when they finally got going… and couldn’t stop, were just adorable and sexy. This was a great start to another great series from a fantastic author. Aw… Fallon and Brody were there, double aw… Tremaine was there! Ha!
