ABOUT THE BOOK: Release DaTe August 4, 2021.

Venom Kenner is the lead singer of Dirt Cherry, a band well known for their dirty lyrics and larger-than-life antics. With heart-stopping good looks, loving parents, and becoming famous at a young age, Venom is used to getting whatever he wants, whenever he wants it‑-and he wants Jenna.

Jenna Demptation’s life has been one hardship after another. When her older sister becomes the PR manager for Dirt Cherry and strong-arms Jenna to help for the summer, Jenna is happy to get away from her crappy day-to-day life. Until too-good-looking-to-be-real Venom sets his sights on Jenna and sets her nerves into overdrive. Jenna makes an art of shying away from Mr. Hot-Pants McHottie. She has been hurt way too much in the past to trust anyone, far less someone as perfect as Venom, so she’s determined to keep their relationship completely professional, despite their sizzling chemistry.

But Venom knows in his heart this relationship is worth a shot and he’s not going to let a little thing like hesitancy get in his way

REVIEW: ROCK STEADY is the first instalment in MJ Roberts’ contemporary, adult KENNER BROTHERS erotic, rock romance series, and the sixth instalment in the author’s ROCK HARD series. This is thirty-one year old,  lead singer for Dirt Cherry Venom Kenner, and twenty-three  year old, nursing student/PR promoter Jenna Demptation’s story line. ROCK STEADY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. You do not have to have read any of the previous story lines.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Jenna and Venom) ROCK STEADY focuses on the building romance and relationship between Dirt Cherry’s lead singer Venom Kenner, and nursing student Jenna Demptation. Venom Kenner fell in love with Jenna Demptation the first time they met but Jenna continued to avoid our hero, freezing him out when ever he wanted to talk. Working alongside her sister Kate (Rock Harder) on the PR for the all of the bands on the tour, Jenna finds herself focusing on our hero, the man with whom she will fall in love but Jenna struggles with demons from her past, believing she is unworthy of a man such as Venom Kenner. With the approach of a new school year, Jenna is about to enter nursing school while the band continues their concert tour in Mexico and Texas. Time apart forces Jenna to think about her future, a future that may or may not include our story line hero. What ensues is the building but trepidatious relationship between Jenna and Venom, as our couple must navigate the pitfalls of fame, and time spent apart of their chosen professions.

Jenna Demptation’s past continues to control her present, and in this, she is distrustful of men including rock star Venom Kenner. Venom is a rock god; a sexy, beautiful singer, a man Jenna believes is too good to be true. Jenna suffers with issues of low self esteem, believing she is not worthy of Venom’s love but Venom is desperate to prove she is worthy, pulling out all of the proverbial stops in his seduction of Jenna Demptation. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Venom’s ‘brothers’,  the members of Dirt Cherry: Over-Kill, Knife-Edge, Clay, and Hair-Trigger, as well as the return of Kate and Jace (Rock Harder), and several members from the other bands.

ROCK STEADY is a story of family, friendships and relationships. We learn about Jenna’s horrific past, and the Kenner ‘brothers’ family of foundlings and love. The premise is engaging and captivating; the romance is seductive and hot; the characters are animated, a little broken, but healing.

My only complaint, is the abrupt ending. I actually went back and forth in the book, to determine if I was missing something or there was a formatting error. Something was missing, there was no build up to the final two epilogues.
