Do you have a thing for roses or something?
I’m starting to like ‘em more and more.
I’ve found a new book that I’m never going to shut up about! Nora is a dancer who ran to LA away from her small town. And while she was trying to escape her past, she brought the past with her. Nash Pierce is a rockstar who left the boyband life after his girlfriend slept with a bandmate. An opportunity arises for Nora to excel as a dancer, and in a blink of an eye, she’s a dancer on Nash’s stadium tour. But it’s SO much more than that! Especially since his team decides that he needs a little push to write his next album. And by push, I mean heartbreak. But that’s a pain neither Nash or Nora are ready for. While Nash has a bad attitude on the outside, he’s got a broken heart on the inside; and it has nothing to do with his ex. Nora and Nash have a connection, from the moment they lock eyes. And no matter how much Nash fights it, he can’t get out of Nora’s orbit. There’s banter between them from the very start, and it only continues to get better the more they connect. Get ready to swoon folks, because it’s been days since I finished the book and my heart is still a melted mess! For as tough as his exterior is, Nash truly is just a softy on the inside. And that’s the side Nora gets. They’re open and honest with each other. They bond, they create special moments together, safe spaces. He’s aware of his baggage, and his vices. And he wants to work through them, for Nora, with Nora. Unfortunately, when the time comes…he’s doing it because of Nora, without her. I was teary eyed the majority of chapter 31, and then lost it by the end. And then I let out a nice loud cuss when I saw the time lapse for chapter 32. And again at chapter 33. Let’s be honest, I cried from chapter 31 until after I finished the book. I can say, without a doubt in my mind, I would cry from beginning to end listening to his new album. Heartbreak in a book has never hurt me like this before. Their pain was (is) my pain. Could their ending be more perfect?! The answer to that is NO! A beautiful, wonderful, perfect five stars. I would give ANYTHING to see Nash and Nora perform Preach. ANYTHING! I'll never see a rain storm or a concert in the rain the same again.

Quotes from Founded on Temptation
• “I’d rather forgive Nora and still love her than hold a grudge for the rest of my life and never have her again.
• “You really love her don't you?” "With every part of me. Even the parts of me that are hurt by her. For worse or for better, she’s the one I want by my side. The money, the fame—I don’t want any of it without her. My rain show.”
