Title: Ballad of Hysteria

Series: Rock ‘Em Dead Book #2
Author: Lindsay Becs
Genre: Rock Star Romance
Release Date: January 28, 2022
Panic. Frenzy. Anxiety. Hysteria.

All words I would use to describe not just how I feel inside, but how my life is on the outside too. I left home to follow my dreams instead of the guy.

But I can’t keep away from that guy. He’s the rock-and-roll bad boy, the drug I can’t quit. We’re toxic, but my addiction to him is suffocating me. He is the stains on my skin that I can’t get away from. Marks, scars, and art.

Air. I need airβ€”fresh airβ€”to breathe. I think I found it. But not in the one who’s supposed to help me through the fog. It’s… unexpected. He’s unexpected.

But we don’t belong in each other’s worlds. I’m red lipstick and tattoos, and he’s suits and ties and everything I need.

He’s the ballad to calm the hysteria inside me.

MY REVIEW:

This is a fabulous second story in this rock β€˜n roll series. We met these characters in the first story with Lola as the bestie of heroine Lily. Lola is strong and feisty and has been in love/lust with lead singer and bad boy Nate right from their first meet. But their relationship is on again/off again as Nate embraces the rockstar lifestyle which leaves Lola cold. Lily’s older brother, Mark is in the mix and the complete opposite of Nate. He’s older, settled and a mature hottie. Can Lola leave her bad boy first love behind? I bet not. There’s nothing like a hot rock star. Yum! Will Nate wise up to the wonderful woman Lola is? He better! This is another emotional roller coaster read that’s entertaining and heartfelt. A terrific YA/NA romance.

I love books! I have been reading for as long as I can remember. I was the kid with the flashlight under the covers reading until the wee hours. Books were my refuge. I was delighted to discover tree climbing. I would take a book and climb to the top of a Mimosa tree and read for hours...and of course ignore my mother calling for me to do chores. I was committed to reading all of the Nancy Drew stories. Ned was my first book boyfriend. When I was in my early teens I discovered Harlequin romances. I feel in love and it changed my life. I was in love with Love πŸ’• That’s something for a girl who hadn’t been kissed yet. When I read β€œhe thrust his throbbing member into her womanhood” I was lost to discovering more about this particular brand of romance. But I don’t just enjoy romance reads. My father-in-law introduced me to the high fantasy genre and I loved it. When I bought my first Nook the world of books really took me by surprise. I was enthralled with all the available genres and to my delight I discovered erotica. In most cases, I was with family on visits to bookstores and you don’t peruse those even if they carried them. Oh the shame of it! ;) Thanks to Nancy Drew I still enjoy mysteries along with romance, fantasy, erotica, paranormal, steampunk, thrillers, and well, most anything except a horror of a horror. My favorite might be romance suspense but it’s hard for me to pick just one. I had a serious health issue a few years ago and was forced to quite working after building a career I could be proud of. It was devastating and depressing. I lost myself in books and now spend my days (and nights) reading. I am so appreciative of authors and the wonderful storytelling I’ve found in books. It takes me away from my troubles and introduces me into a world like no other. I love books!
