Opinião/ Review:

"Rock Hard" is the second book of the Sinners on Tour series by the author Olivia Cunning.
I recently discovered this book series, and it became one of my greatest joys of the year!

After reading "Backstage Pass" (you can check my review HERE) , I was more then willing to get to know Sed's story, the sexy and arrogant lead vocal of Sinners.

In the first book, we met Sed as a man in constant suffer because of his broken engagement. Having sex with lots of girls at the same time was his therapy, with a little help by his buddy Eric, Sed was trying to forget his past, until he accidentally bumped into his former fiancée, Jessica, during Brian's bachelor party.

Jessica is a law school student, who left the love of her life to persued her dream, even though she loved Sed more than her life... but he wanted to crontol her, stopping her of going to law school, and she couldn't let that be.

Being a straight A student was the way she kept studing, thanks to her schoolarships, but because of one mean professor who failed her out of jealousy, her future is now in jeopardy.
To keep herself in school, she started stripping... desperate times, makes desperate decisions. Everything was doing well, until Sed appeared and got her fired.

Two years after they were planning a marriage... two years later, they cannot stand each other, or so they say!

After Myrna hired Jessica as her PA, Sed's ex-fiancée gets to tour with Sinners.

The deep attraction between the ex-couple is notorious, but Jess wants her reveange after watching the trashy show Sed put on with three girls on the bus she now lives. So, she decided it was time for Sed to taste his own medicine, and be treated like a play toy.

Sed battles himself about Jessica. She's the love of his life, and he wants to take care of her, but she hurted his feelings and he won't make it if she does it again.

I'm a little disappointed about this book..
I was hoping Sed would be a little more tougher and to struggle with his feelings, instead, he was soft as butter when it came to Jess.

But I did like Jessica a lot. She's tough and I can see where she comes from.
Jessica wants to be her own person, she doesn't want to have to choose between love and a career, she wants both, but she can't stand Sed's "I'm-the-boss" atitude.

I could feel the chemistry between these two, but Myrna and Brian were way hotter!

And why people keep getting sick in these books? First Brain's hand, then Trey's head, and now Sed's throat... Maybe Eric is right and they're cursed.

You all know how much I love Trey, and he was in the spotlight again, but I can see a padron here... Trey is the one who always unite the couples. 
Yes, he's fabulous, but I didn't like what happened to him in this book, and I can sense he's book will be very very intense!

Overall "Rock Hard" was a reading I appreciated.  
With lots of sex scenes (and WOW! such spicy scenes!!). 
With lots of drama (yes, I'm a drama queen, I like to feel the blood running during fights!).

Olivia Cunning knows how to make my day!
