Recommendation
NEW TESSA SERIES!! And this time she brings us an older woman and younger man, or more accurately, a rock star and his former baby sitter. And OH DAMN! Their chemistry is off the charts!!~ Nelle [December 2015]
Once again, I have so many dirty quotes, my Kindle looks like one giant highlight. But don’t worry, those are woven in between the meat of the story. I’m not sure how Tessa does it, but she creates such great characters, with real struggles and faults, and you become engrossed in their story, feeling their doubt, heartache, and eventually love. Sarge had to compete with Jasmine hung up on their age difference, but also that she’s unhappy with how her life has ended up. It was hard watching Sarge struggle to overcome Jasmine constantly pushing him away, but Tessa made it all better with hot bedroom scenes and Sarge’s sweet and dirty persistence.
Publisher synopsis
Jasmine Taveras is the reason Sarge Purcell grabbed his six-string and bailed the hell out of New Jersey four years ago. She's the fuel for every song he's ever written-each one laced with bitter, hard-edged, hungry lust. Now, with his hugely successful band on temporary hiatus, Sarge is determined to prove to Jasmine that this "kid" turned into every inch the man she's always needed…
Men are slim pickings for a single factory girl in Hook, New Jersey…until tall, broad-shouldered hotness walks-or rather storms-into Jasmine's life. Sarge's return shouldn't affect her this way. He's her best friend's much younger kid brother, and the kind of rough, gritty, sexiness Jasmine has no right to taste for herself. Even if he lets her.
But lust is a blinding, insatiable force. And when it crashes, it will take both Sarge and Jasmine down with it…
