Blurb

Dimpled smile of a boy

Hard body of a man

Sings like an angel

Fucks like the devil

I was stuck between a rock(star) and a hard place.

At fifteen, his poster hung on my bedroom wall. At twenty-five his body hovered over mine. Every girl’s fantasy became my reality. I was dating a rockstar. Yet I was slowly falling for another man. The problem was—the two men—they shared a tour bus.

Flynn Beckham was the opening act.

Dylan Ryder was the headliner.

What happens when the opening act begins to shine so bright, it seems to dim everything else in its wake?

I’ll tell you what happens. Things get ugly.

Excerpt

Getting through Flynn singing is incredibly hard. The way his throat moves, the way his mouth caresses each syllable of the low, raspy sound that falls from his lips. I should be watching his posture, his breathing, the way his larynx forces out the words—but instead I’m focused on the beauty of his mouth and how the sound of his voice glides over my body, making it feel both warm and tingly at the same time. I’m lost when the song finishes, yet I haven’t really observed him yet.

“So. Give it to me straight. What am I doing wrong?”

Ummm…absolutely nothing from what I can see. Everything was perfect. Don’t change a thing. Shit. “Could you do it again? Maybe a different song, one you haven’t sung in a while. So the sounds are less familiar to your body. Sometimes that can give me a different view.” At least I make it sound like a real thing when the words come out.

He sings again, and this time I force myself to observe. “Hmm…your posture is great. Most people have a tendency to favor one side of their neck, which makes them tilt a bit when they speak, and it becomes magnified when they sing, which puts strain on the muscles around the vocal cords. Your alignment is perfect.”

“Thank you, it goes with the rest of my perfectness,” he says with a teasing arrogance that, from the little I know about him, I know isn’t real.

“You didn’t let me finish.”

“You can’t now tell me I’m not perfect. I was already basking in the glow.”

“Actually, it was perfect…but almost a little too perfect. Which makes me think you don’t usually stand this way when you sing.”

“It isn’t the way I normally sing. On stage, I usually have a guitar over my shoulder. Even if I’m not playing it, it’s there.”

“Well, I need to see you holding your instrument to assess you fully, then.”

Flynn’s eyebrows quirk up and the dirty grin on his face is unmistakable.

“The guitar. I’d need to see you holding the guitar.”

“That’s a shame.” He shrugs, the playful smile still on his face. “But okay. It’s your call. Whatever instrument you want to see me hold is fine with me.”

“How big of you.”

“So now we’re talking about the other instrument again?”

I roll my eyes, although this conversation is having more of an effect on me than I let on.

Review

Jill’s Review

Vi Keeland’s Beat is full of rockstar yumminess.

Did you grow up having a crush on a hot and sexy celebrity? Have his super sexy poster decorating your bedroom wall and go to sleep dreaming about what it would be like to date him? Come on admit, we all did! Well so did Lucky. Hers was a rockstar – Dylan Ryder. The difference between Lucky and most of us when she grew up her childhood celebrity crush, the rocker she lusted over as a teenager on her bedroom walls became her real life boyfriend. OMG! That is the stuff of every girls’s dreams. Am I right? Your secret fantasy? That one that you still harbor to this day when we play that game – Who is your Celebrity Pass. So Lucky should be in heaven right. So why does she seem a bit unsettled? And how come it gets even worse when Flynn Beckham walks into her bar?

Vi Keeland has a way of writing that just has me picking up her books starting them and then not being able to put them down. Damn that woman. She just writes good books with delicious men. And mmm mmmm mmmm is that Flynn Beckham a yummy one. He is the lead singer of In Like Flynn and just the perfect combination of naughty, bad boy, sweet & charming, and amazing with kids and just ultimately the perfect man – as in oh what book boyfriend material. He is who you wish you could put on your bedroom walls right now!! Let’s just take a moment for a dreamy sigh…..

I know that some of you are going to shy away from Beat when you read synopsis, because just the hint of cheating or triangles makes people run and hide, But DON’T. It just doesn’t seem like it. I know, sounds odd doesn’t it? Like I want to justify everything. And I don’t want to give the story away, just to say trust me and it will all work out. And really you will love the characters and their relationships. Trust me! The characters are written so well, and you get to watch the relationships develop. And oh, oh oh! The side characters were so great! I really hope we get to see more of them

I truly recommend this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I wish that I could find a Flynn one day. I would sooooooo be in like Flynn!!!

I received a complimentary copy of Beat in exchange for my honest review.
