REVIEW: ROCK ME: CRAZY is the third storyline in Arabella Quinn’s Rock Me novella series focusing on the members of the rock group Cold fusion. This is Tommy (the drummer) and Livvy’s storyline. Although this is the third novella, it can be read as a stand alone without too much difficulty.

Livvy has no idea who is the mysterious stranger at the bar. In fact, she is there as her friend’s wingman and when everything goes wrong, Livvy has no idea with what or whom she is about to deal. But a few dinner dates and evenings later, Livvy will discover that the man with whom she is falling in love, is none other than the drummer for the rock band Cold Fusion and Tommy wants a relationship based on ‘friends with benefits’ and nothing more.

The storyline and the relationship build as Livvy tries to prove to Tommy that she is a willing candidate as his FWB but Livvy must develop a thick skin and learn a few tricks to keep Tommy interested. In this, there are some humorous moments as Livvy tries to prove that she is ready, willing and knowledgeable about a lifestyle she knows nothing about and Tommy is patient with the woman who could very well own him body and soul.

As far as rock genre storylines go, this is similar to many but one thing I did take issue with is the lack of or no protection during sex. The storyline is rife with sexual encounters between members of the band and various men and women and not once was there any mention of protection. In this, I found the storyline a bit unbelievable considering the rock industry is filled with stories of STDs, AIDS and sexual experimentation. But, it is a fictional storyline, with fictional characters and apparently there are no fictional STDs.

If you like a rock star storyline that is gritty, fun, sexually explicit and pulls no punches talking about a lifestyle that very few will ever experience, ROCK ME: CRAZY is the perfect read.
