Synopsis (Goodreads):
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kylie Scott comes a new story in her Stage Dive series…

When the girl of your dreams is kind of a nightmare.

As head of security to Stage Dive, one of the biggest rock bands in the world, Sam Knowles has plenty of experience dealing with trouble. But spoilt brat Martha Nicholson just might be the worst thing he’s ever encountered. The beautiful troublemaker claims to have reformed, but Sam knows better than to think with what’s in his pants. Unfortunately, it’s not so easy to make his heart fall into line.

Martha’s had her sights on the seriously built bodyguard for years. Quiet and conservative, he’s not even remotely her type. So why the hell can’t she get him out of her mind? There’s more to her than the Louboutin wearing party-girl of previous years, however. Maybe it’s time to let him in on that fact and deal with this thing between them.
Thoughts on Strong: Okay. I'm going to lay things on the table. Martha is not my favorite person in the cast of characters that make up the Stage Dive group. I always felt kind of sorry for Ben for having to put up with her as a sister. I mean...*gives her a narrowed-eyed, squinty stare* the things she did. NO LIKE.

That said, this book miiiiight have changed my opinion on her. Maybe. A little. Fine. It changed it. I might not like what she did in the past, but this is a new and improved Martha and she's not terrible.

That might be because she had Sam to lean on. Sure, sure. It took her a while to figure out that one could lean without looking weak, but she is teachable and Sam had a whole lot of patience where Martha Nicholson is concerned. A WHOLE LOT. He has that rock-solid thing going for him (and I don't mean that in a dirty way, you pervs, although he had that, too) and he wasn't about to back down from fighting to win the woman who'd intrigued him for years.

As always, I ADORE seeing the craziness that is the Stage Dive family. Mal's unfiltered motor-mouth always makes me laugh and the crew is just as tight as ever. Maybe even more so. Because families.

Bottom line: Loved it.
