Award-winning author Karina Bliss continues her Rock Solid series with a sexy, heart-warming story of a loner bad boy who can't resist his longstanding crush, a woman whose superpower is love. No more rock stars. Not ever. Lily Hagen Stuart has done that scene to death. Her new career in early childhood education is way more rewarding and she deals with far fewer tantrums. Then a stolen sex tape is posted online and her future is in jeopardy. She needs to escape the paparazzi and the only place that offers refuge is the world she swore never to return to: the music world. Fine. A few weeks—tops. That’s all she needs to get her life back. And keeping her hands off gorgeous Moss McFadden? Should be easy... Moss McFadden may be a rising rock star, but he’s quite happy to keep everyone at arm’s length. Until Lily needs help, that is. They strike a deal that puts them in closer proximity than is good for his equilibrium. Still, he can keep his fascination with her in check. Or can he? Because when she lends him a hand in a life-changing situation, all his defenses are shot. And as he goes down in a wave of longing, he wonders if she just might be his salvation. “Her series isn’t your run-of-the-mill rockstar romance–yes, there is certainly music and celebrity, but friendships form the core of these books, and that lends depth to the stories.” Bookdaze “This series is my favorite series about rock stars, with realistic characters and stories, and Bliss’s writing is simply amazing.” Way Too Hot Books THE ROCK SOLID SERIES What The Librarian Did (Opening Act) Rise Fall Play Redemption Resurrection * Fall and Play can be read in any order as the action happens simultaneously.

Book Description
Colonel Ridge Zirkander isn’t the model of military professionalism—he has a tendency to say exactly what’s on his mind, and his record has enough demerits to wallpaper the hull of an airship—but as the best fighter pilot in the Iskandian army, he’s used to a little leniency from his superiors. Until he punches the wrong diplomat in the nose and finds himself issued new orders: take command of a remote prison mine in the inhospitable Ice Blades Mountains. Ridge has never been in charge of anything larger than a flier squadron—what’s he supposed to do with a frozen fortress full of murderers and rapists? Not to mention the strange woman who shows up right before he arrives… Sardelle Terushan wakes from three hundred years in a mage stasis shelter, only to realize that she is the last of the Referatu, the sorcerers who once helped protect Iskandia from conquerors. Their subterranean mountain community was blown up in a treacherous sneak attack by soldiers who feared their power. Everyone Sardelle ever knew is dead, and the sentient soulblade she has been bonded to since her youth is buried in the core of the mountain. Further, what remains of her home has been infested by bloodthirsty miners commanded by the descendants of the very soldiers who destroyed her people. Sardelle needs help to reach her soulblade—her only link to her past and her last friend in the world. Her only hope is to pretend she’s one of the prisoners while trying to gain the commander’s trust. But lying isn’t her specialty, especially when the world has changed so much in the intervening centuries, and if Colonel Zirkander figures out who she truly is, he’ll be duty-bound to sentence her to the only acceptable punishment for sorcerers: death.

And neither will her grandmother--according to the last will and testament and a long-forgotten IOU he'd given the dear, exasperating old woman. So, what next? If the will says he can't buy out the hotel, he'll just have to turn it around by the end of the month. And maybe by then Kezia will understand why he left...and why being near her is breaking his heart all over again.
