Out of Play


Out of Play by Jolene Perry and Nyrea Dawn

 
 
I am so skeptical reading book by two authors, but this one works.  I love Nyrea Dawn, Jolene Perry, and Entangled, so why not?  I am so glad I read this book.  I loved the writing style.  I loved the fact that there were no lulls or lags.  I loved the characters.  I loved this book!

Out of Play is a spectacular book for NA lovers, rock star lovers or both; which I am.  This book has a strong story, great characters and a roller coaster of emotions.  Add in one rock star and a smart mouthed girl and you have a winner.  From the first page to the last, I was hooked.

The story line of the rocker with baggage meets the tom boy was genius.  I felt the writing style flowed nicely.  You could no tell it was written by a pair of authors.  The characters were flawed to perfection and believable. 

Overall, this book is a top pick!

Dear Authors:  Please give us more of the Burn band.  I would love to see this go into a series. 

Synopsis:

Rock star drummer Bishop Riley doesn't have a drug problem. Celebrities—especially ones suffering from anxiety—just need a little help taking the edge off sometimes. After downing a few too many pills, Bishop wakes up in the hospital facing an intervention. If he wants to stay in the band, he’ll have to detox while under house arrest in Seldon, Alaska. 

Hockey player Penny Jones can't imagine a life outside of Seldon. Though she has tons of scholarship offers to all the best schools, the last thing she wants is to leave. Who'll take care of her absentminded gramps? Not her mother, who can’t even be bothered to come home from work, let alone deal with their new tenants next door.

Penny’s not interested in dealing with Bishop’s crappy attitude, and Bishop’s too busy sneaking pills to care. Until he starts hanging out with Gramps and begins to see what he’s been missing. If Bishop wants a chance with the fiery girl next door, he’ll have to admit he has a problem and kick it. Too bad addiction is hard to kick…and Bishop’s about to run out of time.
