Are you a fan of Rockstar romances? How about friends to enemies to lovers? Forced proximity? Opposites attract? A little slow burn? Then keep on reading!
Goodbye is a Second Chance is the first book in the new Sons of Sins series by Nola Marie!
The Sons of Sins consists of Ryder, Maddox, Dane, and Angel. These guys are getting ready to head out on tour, but before they do, they are filming a video for their latest single. When Josephine walks in with Camilla (their handling wardrobe for the band), Angel is shocked, angry, and hurt. He and Josephine (Josie only to him) used to be friends, and he doesn't know what happened to end that. Now though, now they are enemies and want nothing to do with each other. When Josephine spots Angel, she's immediately on edge and the memories of time long gone come flooding back in. So what happened between these two? Will they survive being stuck on tour together?
Goodbye is a Second Chance was a good read. Throughout the book I found myself wondering what would happen next, and how the story would play out. Since this book was my introduction to Nola Marie, I wasn't certain if I would get my HEA or not, but it's definitely there. Having read the book, I am finding myself really curious about Ryder, Maddox, and Dane. I want to know their stories. But I also know that they are future books, so I need to be patient. What can I even say about Angel and Josephine? They've been friends since they were babies. They've been through so much together. Angel knew that Josephine loved him back in high school. He was always the one quieting the people who would bully her. Their connection is just amazing. Now as adults they both have issues to work through, and neither wants to talk about it with the other. At times I found myself frustrated with these two. Yes, Josephine has been hurt in the past, but my mind just cannot wrap my head around the fact that she's still holding on to all of that 10 years later. Same goes for Angel.
Now don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the book. It was just their inability to willingly communicate that was frustrating to me. I loved when Josephine finally blew up and just laid it all out there. I loved the song that Angel wrote. I loved the little concert at the end. And now I'm really curious about Dane and Cami. They had better be the second book.
When it's all said and done, I chose to give Goodbye is a Second Chance 4 stars.
Should you choose to read the book, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Just know that these rockstars definitely live up to their stereotype, so there is sex, drugs, and rock n roll throughout the book.
Thank you for reading my thoughts,
Sons’ of Sin- the hottest new band on tour. But their bassist strums a sour chord when he gets a glimpse of their wardrobe assistant.
Angel
Betrayal after betrayal leaves me knowing damn well women can’t be trusted for more than a good time and a quick goodbye.
Now, I live for my music, my band, and the highs of rock n roll.
Seeing her again after all these years is like a kick in the balls.
Over and over again.
I never understood what happened all those years ago.
I just know this girl broke my damn heart and left me feeling abandoned like no other.
Now with her front and center every day, I will get the answers I deserved all those years ago.
Josie
How do you recover when your life it torn apart?
I should be an old hand at it, with my past.
But now, I’m as close to rock bottom as I can get without crashing.
I don’t know if I can handle even one more thing going wrong.
And then I see him again.
What do you get when you run into the man that you hate more than anything?
You avoid eye contact.
That is until you can't.
Now I'm stuck working for his band while they tour the country.
Being around Angel brings back so many memories and a lot of insecurities I thought I was over, and I know I’m not going to come out intact...
I'm not sure how long this will last without one of us killing the other.
Two damaged souls, once bound by friendship and love, torn apart by deceit.
Now the bitterest of enemies, Josie and Angel are forced into daily contact. Forced to spend time together. Forced to face a painful past. But will taking a chance on their future mean saying goodbye to their past, or to each other?
