Madden by Brooke O'Brien

 

Title: Madden

Series: A Rebels Havoc #4

Author: Brooke O'Brien

Genre: Rock Star Romance

Release Date: February 10, 2023

BLURB

Madden Cole is considered a rock 'n' roll god, and all the women want him. Except for me.

After working my butt off as a journalist for years, I’ve heard the rumors about him and his band and have read all about their dirty scandals in the headlines.

When I land a job as a writer for Limelight magazine, I'll stop at nothing to make a good impression. Even if it means agreeing to a sit-down interview with the bad boys of A Rebels Havoc.

They’re making a name for themselves by soaring to the top of the charts with multiplatinum records and sold-out tours.

Madden is cold and closed-off, but the more I get to know him, the more he starts to open up to me. As hard as I’ve tried to resist wanting him, when he turns on his sweet-talking charm, all the walls I've built around me crumble.

They say what goes up must come down, and the band is forced to face the downside of fame. Rumors, lies, and blackmail threaten Madden's life and the career he and the guys have worked so hard to build.

He doesn't know about the secret I've been keeping.

And I fear when he finds out the truth, it could destroy everything.

TREY

Releasing December 16

Trey Whitt is no stranger to the rock 'n' roll life.

New city every night, and a new fling in his bed. He could have any woman he wanted, but he set his sights on me.

After joining A Rebels Havoc, Trey’s not ready for what comes along with his sudden rise to fame. He certainly never could’ve prepared for all his dirty secrets and sex life to be dragged through the headlines.

For all my life, I’ve never been the one who gets chosen, the one all the men desired. I’ve spent the past twenty-two years holding on to my innocence. So when I catch Trey watching me from across the nightclub, I decide he’s the one I want to claim it.

I know better than to think anything more could come from hooking up with a rock star. During my walk of shame the following morning, I’m forced to face reality when he calls me by the wrong name.

No matter how hard it is to forget our night together, I'm determined to put him and his dirty mouth behind me. Only neither of us is ready for the turn our life takes, bringing us back together again.

Secrets, lies, and rumors—each of them could destroy his career and tear us apart.

Yet there’s one secret from our past neither of us saw coming, and when Trey finds out, it could ruin everything we have between us.

Forever.

Reckless Rebound by Brooke O'Brien

 

Title: Reckless Rebound

A Cocky Hero Club Novel

Author: Brooke O'Brien

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: October 30, 2022

Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are excited to bring you the Cocky Hero Club: original works from various authors inspired by Keeland and Ward's New York Times bestselling Cocky Bastard series.

BLURB

Jaxsen Wild has landed himself in hot water with the NBA.

After letting his temper get the best of him during a game, he’s slapped on the wrist with a warning—get your act together, or your career and the championship with the Miami Blaze is on the line.

He wasn’t looking for love, and he certainly never saw Emmy coming when she crashes into him at the airport. Jaxsen is used to women using him for his money and the media dragging his name through the mud.

The last thing he needs is another scandal with his name plastered in the headlines. Still, something about how she has no idea who he is, draws him in.

Learning her ex cheated on her has Emmy swear off men and relationships forever. All she wants is one night of passion to forget everything—no strings attached. Who better than Mr. Tall, Dark and Dreamy staying at her hotel after their cancelled flight leaves them stranded in the city?

Except Jaxsen wants more than one night with Emmy, and he isn’t ready to let her go so easily.

When word gets out about their relationship and Jaxsen finds out the secret she’s been keeping, Emmy fears he’ll believe she’s using him like all the women before her.

Or worse, he'll live up to his bad boy reputation and turn out to be as much of a player off the court as he is on it.

My rating: 4 out of 5 stars

My review:

Star NBA player Jaxsen Wild’s temper keeps getting him into trouble.  He is given the choice to either straighten up or have his career end with the Miami Blaze team.  He was trying to return to Miami, but his flight was canceled.  He met Emmy at the airport, and he was delighted when she didn’t recognize him, and he could be a normal guy.  After spending one night with her, he wants to see her again except she gives him the wrong phone number.  When he runs into her again, he decides he is not going to let her go without a fight.  

Emmy had sworn off men and relationships after discovering her ex had been cheating on her.  She just wants to forget everything for one night and spend it with Jaxsen with no strings attached.  It sounded like the perfect plan since she did not think she would ever see him again since she was moving.  

This was an easy book to get into and hard to put down.  I loved watching Emmy and Jaxsen’s relationship develop.  He fell hard for Emmy and having her in his life helped Jaxsen’s anger issues.  She was the calm to his storm.  I enjoyed this book and look forward to future books.

Reckless Rebound is part of the Cocky Hero Club collection.  This was a new author for me, but the synopsis intrigued me.  I haven’t read a lot of basketball sports romances, so I was excited to get a chance to.  The book was fast-paced, entertaining, and easy to read.  

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
