Bad Boy Rocker and the Innocent Damsel in Distress.
Blind Attraction, Eden Summers
Reckless Beat #1
He can seduce with a single glance.
Peering down at a sea of fans, rock star, Mitchell Davies can’t deny the innocent beauty of a woman in the front row. He’ll stop at nothing to get to know her. When a public altercation leaves her weak and defenseless, he takes the opportunity to be her savior.
She’s been sheltered from the world.
Alana Shelton wants to spread her wings and experience life away from her restrictive upbringing. But she isn’t prepared for a gorgeous stranger to sweep her off her feet while at her most vulnerable.
Attraction will bring them together, but their pasts will try to tear them apart.
He wants to teach her how to trust, but she’ll show him how to love. In a glamorous world of rock-and-roll, only time will tell if they’re up for the challenge.
REVIEW:
Blind Attraction kicks off a headlining tour of what promises to be a great series. Well written and cleverly crafted plot twists keep this from being just another rocker fantasy. On second thought, this could be the perfect rocker fantasy and more. Few gals haven't wondered "what would happen if" when they listen to the dreamy voices and sexy lyrics of their fav fellas on stage. But Ms. Summers takes that "what if" and spins a tale that has the reader turning pages just to keep up with the wild world of those Reckless Beat boys and the girls who love them.
Mitchell spies Alana. He wants her, has to have her. She's shy, sheltered, sexually unschooled. He's challenged, captivated and completely consumed. Along the way, there's humor, tragedy, action, romance, insane chemistry and smokin hot sex. It's like the culmination of all the songs on an album - moments of every element that come together to create an overall smash hit. Most importantly, for this reader, was the unexpected element of fun - this was a fun read. Sure there were moments here an there, but the primary and secondary characters were highly enjoyable, with unique quirks and voices that made them multi-dimensional and genuinely real.
The other bookclubbers highly endorsed this read and I was lagging behind. Truthfully, I was afraid this would be a bit of fluff and have no substance (not that I require that, because folks know I like my brain candy). I truly enjoyed Blind Attraction once I got started. The pace moves quickly and stays pretty consistent. The attraction and chemistry between Alana and Mitch sizzles like rain on a summer pavement. Mostly, I like the feeling that more Reckless Beat stories are out there waiting to happen - Summers lays down some tracks in her plot that tease the reader with what, I only hope, will be additional books to tantalize her readers.

About the author:
Eden Summers is a true blue Aussie, living in regional New South Wales with her two energetic young boys and a quick witted husband.
In late 2010, Eden’s romance obsession could no longer be sated by reading alone, so she decided to give voice to the sexy men and sassy women in her mind.
Eden can’t resist alpha dominance, dark features and sarcasm in her fictional heroes and loves a strong heroine who knows when to bite her tongue but also serves retribution with a feminine smile on her face.
