Blurb:
Bridal shoe
company owner Lori Hanover is in way over her head. First, her designer sister
has fallen head over heels for the rock star fiancé of a client - talk about
bad PR! Now her business is falling apart. Lori's only hope in
saving her company is making the world believe it was true love, even if she's
not so sure herself. Her best bet? A song. For this she
turns to the most frustrating musical recluse in America, Dash Mills, a man who
could pass for Thor’s sexier brother. And even though this former rock
superstar agrees to help, it comes at a price…
When Lori agrees to Dash’s terms, he thinks she's the one in for a challenge. But the more time he spends with this spitfire bombshell, the more tempted he is to play her—in more ways than one. But Dash left behind the rock and roll life for a reason. And seductive as Lori may be, if she drags him back into that world, this time he won't forgive himself...or her.

My review:
This sweet sexy
tale about had me in tears. Uptight and
driven Lori needs the help of laid back Dash and though they are polar
opposites they can teach each other a little about living and a lot about
love. I adored watching them grow as
individuals and as a couple.
And although a complimentary
copy was provided by author/publisher for an honest review I would go and buy
this for myself.
EXCERPTS from RESISTING THE MUSICIAN:
Excerpt 1
His rumpled T-shirt lifted at his belly to
reveal a happy trail and the fact that the top two buttons of his jeans had
been left undone, as if he’d rolled out of bed, tugged them on, and headed off
into the wilderness.
Also leaving her with the pretty sound
impression that he wore nothing underneath.
When Callie had mentioned meeting Jake’s
illusive reclusive ex-band-mate a few weeks before, Lori had briefly imagined
an overweight, overly-tattooed guy who reeked of bourbon and past glory.
Instead, she’d found Thor.
Excerpt 2
"What compelled you to ignore the ‘No
Trespassing Or My Vicious Dogs will Eat Your Liver For Brunch’ sign?” asked
Dash.
In sentences three words and less his voice was
riveting. Longer it was rich and smooth, with a hint of an accent
Lori couldn’t pick.
“The sign lied,” Lori prevaricated, as if she
didn’t have a million things she ought to be doing with her time other than
standing in this doorway in the middle of nowhere falling into the slumberous
dark eyes of a hulking stranger.
His wide mouth flickered up at one
corner. She would have bet a mint the guy was well aware how a smile
like that would play with any female within range.
“If you want liver-eaters for dogs,” she said,
standing taller to negate the urge to fan herself, “they need discipline.”
One meaty shoulder lifted into a
shrug. “Never been that keen on the stuff myself.”
“Liver?”
“Discipline.”
He touched the side of his nose and she wondered
how many times it had been broken. And how big the other guys must
have been.
