Conquest by S.J. Frost
4.0
The two main characters were great, especially Jesse. I really liked the fact that he was brash and mouthy and got himself in trouble. I also liked his brother and their banter a lot. The progression of the MC's relationship was a bit extreme, in a couple of different ways, especially how fast it started. I would have expected more caution, given who Evan was and all he had to lose. But the writing was good and got even better as the book progressed.
I liked the band members, and the interactions there. I was irritated with Greg for pushing the guys apart and then pushing them together - I wondered if he felt as conflicted as he acted, and appreciated that it wasn't a simple black-and-white situation. I guess Evan's skill with words as a lyricist could be the reason he is sometimes so surprisingly articulate. Overall a book that kept me turning pages, and I did immediately move into the sequel.
