Synopsis (Goodreads):
A bad boy wrapped in a sexy, muscled, grown-up package might be worth a little risk…

Molly Webster has always followed the rules. After an ugly scandal tore apart her childhood and made her the focus of the media’s harsh spotlight, she vowed to live an ordinary life. No fame. No impropriety. No pain. Then she meets Zachary Fox, a tattooed bad boy rocker with a voice like whiskey and sin, and a touch that could become an addiction.

A one-night stand with the hottest rock star on the planet, that’s all it was meant to be…

Fox promises scorching heat and dangerous pleasure, coaxing Molly to extend their one-night stand into a one-month fling. After that, he’ll be gone forever, his life never again intersecting with her own. Sex and sin and sensual indulgence, all with an expiration date. No ties, no regrets. Too late, Molly realizes it isn’t only her body that’s become addicted to Fox, but her heart…
Thoughts on Rock Addiction: Well, hellllllo there, Molly and Fox. I'm kinda smitten with the sexy rock god falls for a normal girl storyline. I don't know what it is about it, but I start reading and can't put it down. And when the sexy rock god is determined to show his special lady friend that she's his world, well, I can't help but cheer him on.

Because dudes with tattoos who have seriously sexy chemistry with their lady friend AND want nothing more than to show her how special she is are my kryptonite.

That said... there's a lot of sexy times in this book. For the record, I like sexy times. But there's A LOT of it. Almost to the point of distracting me from the story. Considering how much I wanted to mine the narrative for more nuggets of information about Noah and Charlie and Thea and David and... well, let's just say I liked all the background characters and leave it at that...the sexy times pulled me away from that.

But I also liked the sexy times because Fox and Molly were smokin' together. I'm just a big ball of conflicting emotions, aren't I?

The biggest draw for me, however, was Fox's complete devotion to Molly. He sees her and no one else. I liked that. I liked that Molly was woman enough to spill her guts about her fears and what drove her batty. I like that Fox had a temper and sometimes acted without thinking, but he took responsibility for his actions.

And, yes, I'm very much looking forward to David and Thea's memos. Onward!
