Spotlight, guest post and giveaway with Karolyn James




Hi everyone! Today I'm glad to present you: The Brothers of Rock Series by Karolyn James. 
This series is dramatic, sexy, romantic,and entertaining. It sizzles!





With ALL ACCESS, a contemporary romance series begins that explores, life, love and music. Join the five band members of Chasing Cross as they find that there's more to life beyond the stage.





Blurb:


Jess is caught off guard when a sexy stranger buys her a cup of coffee and asks her to sit with him. He's mysterious, nice, and even though he says the right things at the right time, Jess can sense that there's something hidden about him.

As Johnnie sits across from the beautiful woman, he can't believe she doesn't recognize him. Everyone does. It comes with the territory when you're the lead singer of one of the hottest bands in the world, Chasing Cross. With one more show to go before taking a small break in touring, it feels like luck is on Johnnie's side. That is, if he can find a way to tell Jess who he is, without scaring her off.

After her best friend begs her to come to a concert, Jess finds herself standing in the middle of a crowd. The lights are off, music begins, and the crowd erupts in cheers. She doesn't know much about the band, but that's all about to change. When the lights come on, Jess can't believe her eyes. The lead singer of the band is the man from the café.

Plucked from the crowd during the show, Jess makes her way backstage. The encore may have ended on stage, but the real show is just about to begin. Johnnie's passion quickly turns to romance but the more time he and Jess spend together, the more things get complicated. Johnnie has a big decision to make about himself and the band, testing his loyalty and love for the music, and when Jess's dreams start to come true, she starts to realize that true love exists, but it's not always an easy path to take.

The second book in the Brothers of Rock series is BROKEN SOUND, where lead guitarist, Davey, is faced with life changing decisions involving love, family, and as always, music.

Blurb:


Rockstars expect women to show up at their hotel room, but when a woman shows up with an infant and tells Davey he is the father, his world is turned upside down.

Anna is a teacher and part-time waitress, desperate to make enough to pay off debts left to her by an ex-boyfriend who made her life a living hell. When her boss schedules her for an extra shift, he tells her it's her job to take care of a special guest... lead guitarist of Chasing Cross, Davey. The second Anna meets eyes with Davey, she feels something she's wanted for a long time. But with someone famous? That's impossible. Besides, Davey is there with a date.

When Davey returns to the restaurant, sans date, he asks to see Anna. She doesn't understand what he would want with her. He is a man with a big heart, kind eyes, and the true power that only a real rockstar could have. Then Anna learns the truth of Davey's life, from his haunted past to his rocky present. Still, she longs to be part of his future.  But when Anna's own past turns potentially deadly, life and love suddenly collide in a way that could hurt everyone and leave someone dead.





Book three in the Brothers of Rock series - BITTER FAREWELL



Blurb:
When Danny boards the private jet for his father's funeral, he knows he isn't just going back home to settle the estate.


He is going to back to find her... the girl who loved him, the girl who understood his family problems, and the girl he left behind to chase his dream of becoming a rockstar.


Liv Cryers is stuck in Bakersville. Literally. She came back hoping to find peace inside her empty heart, but now she's forced to care for her ailing father who doesn't remember her most days. She's tired of being forgotten. The sounds of her past seem so far away...


When rockstars come to town, crazy things can happen...











The 4th book in the Brothers of Rock series - BURIED NOTES



Blurb:

Finally exposing a secret to his band after years of hiding, Chasing Cross bassist, Chris, confesses that some years ago, during a wild night, he ended up marrying someone. It was supposed to be a no-big-deal kind of thing, with a stipulation... if one of them fell in love or wanted to get married to someone else, they would divorce.

Chris has been served divorce papers, and it should be easy to just sign them, but he can't. His heart won't allow it.

Becky loses her mother to breast cancer and realizes that life sometimes really is too short. She finds the ring she received from a sexy rockstar the night she secretly married him. The memory should have been fun, but after being pushed into a corner to stay married while that rockstar's band took off, Becky can't do it anymore.

She sends divorce papers and waits... and waits... and weeks after sending the papers, she wonders what's taking so long...

In a journey that forces Chris to step back in time to find his future, he knows he needs to find Becky - his wife. He isn't sure what he'll find, but he knows he wants the truth.

Was it love back then? Or just a crazy night with a rockstar?








Book Five - Last Song (coming soon!)







Getting to know Karolyn James:

Why Rockstars?  Why Chasing Cross?

I love answering the questions – Why rockstars? Why Chasing Cross? – because my answer is always the same… because I love music and I love romance! I wanted to write a series that captured the rockstar life but later in it. Chasing Cross has been around for ten years already. They’re beyond the wild groupie lifestyle but they’re not ready to hang up the guitars and call it quits. The books with Chasing Cross follow the band on and off stage, on and off tour, and in and out of the studio.

Meet the band – Chasing Cross – appearing in the first five books of the Brothers of Rock series!

In the first book of the series – All Access – it introduces the band and introduces leader singer, Johnnie. He meets a woman who doesn’t know who he is and they fall for each other. The story is flirty and fun with the undertones of what it’s like to be a successful rockstar. Johnnie is sexy and rich, but he faces a lot of troubles. And with Jess, he realizes anything is possible.

With the second book – Broken Sound – Davey faces a real situation. A woman shows up at his hotel room with a baby claiming he’s the father. The flirty and fun feeling from All Access is quickly shaken away here. The book is deep as Davey tries to decide what the right to do is… and on top of that, he falls for a woman who isn’t the mother of the baby. There’s plenty of twists and turns in the book, including an attempted murder!

The release of Bitter Farewell brings Danny’s journey back home after he and Johnnie’s father dies. (Johnnie and Danny are blood brothers.) While Johnnie is able to make peace quick and the band is eager to get back to getting ready for their tour and recording, Danny can’t let it go. When he left town, he left a woman behind. And fate steps in, bringing them back together. This romance book explores love through heartache and proves the true power of time.

The fourth book, Buried Notes, follows bassist, Chris, as he goes back in time to follow through on a promise he made when he – and Chasing Cross – were still young. He confesses a wild secret to the band and when he’s at a crossroads in life and love, everything will change in and out of the band.

The fifth book featuring Chasing Cross, Last Song, comes after Rick’s major decision with the band. He slips away and into a depression that he barely escapes from. It’s music that saves his life but it’s an unexpected love that saves his soul…
