Lifeless by J.M. LaRocca
I purchased Lifeless by J.M. LaRocca on Amazon and was hooked as soon as I started reading. I was able to read the entire book in one sitting, although I didn’t get to bed until after 1 am. 😉
Book Description from Amazon
Ages 18+ due to sexual content and language
After graduating from the University of South Alabama, Scarlett Moore discovers her boyfriend of five months is actually married with a child on the way. Feeling used and heartbroken, she decides it’s time to take her best friend Jules’ advice to move to Atlanta and live with her. There, Jules helps her get a job at Entertainment Atlanta, where she works as an entertainment insurance agent. It’s not Scarlett’s dream job, but it’s better than not having a job at all, and who wouldn’t mind working with famous people, right?
Then she gets assigned to EA’s newest client, Kade Evans, rock star turned actor. Not only is he a drug addict, he’s also known for never dating the same girl twice. He’s tall, dark, and handsome, has an amazing voice, and good acting skills, but he’s also arrogant and intense.
At their first meeting, the chemistry between them is undeniable.
The love that comes later is unexpected.
But Kade’s life is full of secrets. His past has now intruded on his present and when Scarlett finds out what his secrets are, the real deception begins.
Lifeless by J.M. LaRocca Book Review
I sat down after the kids went to bed last night, opened my laptop and started reading. About four hours later I was done with the book, absolutely mesmerized by the characters and wanting more.
I will let you know that this IS a cliffhanger book. I usually get pretty irritated when I start reading a book and find out that it is a cliffhanger. I was able to read some reviews from readers who received an advanced copy of the book and knew going in that it was a cliffhanger. Still, I know there is so much more to learn but I’m happy that I read this book. Actually, more than happy. I love these characters and LaRocca has a wonderful storytelling ability. She let the reader get to know Scarlett and what makes her tick, but I LOVE her best friend Jules.
Kade, oh! what can I say. He’s hot and beneath all the Rock Star personality he’s really sweet. Kade is broken, he has a wall built around him and he has a past. We don’t know all the details about his past (I’m not telling what I know) and let me tell you, I wasn’t expecting what I read. I’ll tell you that I was drawn to Bryce. Um, yep. He’s hot too and I definitely hope there is more of him in the next book.
The storyline was actually believable and I say that because I’ve read so many books lately that don’t have an ounce of believability in them. Let me tell you that I was drawn into the love scenes because they are hot and steamy!
The book is well written and I think it was a great book to introduce us to J.M. LaRocca. I’ll definitely be buying the follow up when it is released.
