Sum It Up! If you love rock stars then this is the series for you to read!

Rock Star" is the highly anticipated sequel to Ginger Voight's Rock and Roll Rubenesque saga, which began with the sizzling debut of "Groupie." For those who have been anxious to see what has become of Andy, Vanni and Graham... buckle your seat belts. You're in for a thrilling new ride right through the dark underbelly of fame.

In the second book in the series, readers get insight into the mind of the romantic hero, Giovanni Carnevale, as he reaches the pinnacle of success as a world wide rock star. Everyone wants a piece of him, but all he wants is the one thing he can't have. He's angry and he's entitled, with ample opportunity to make really bad decisions. The combination proves explosive.

Andy must watch from the sidelines as her beloved Vanni falls victim to grifters, scandals and alcoholism thanks to this self-destructive behavior. Things come to an emotional head when his estranged father comes on the scene just when Vanni thinks things can't get any worse.

Darkness shadows Graham Baxter as he begins his journey as a paraplegic. The powerful mogul bitterly handles this new vulnerability by lashing out at the people who could help him the most. He needs Andy more than ever, pulling her in yet another hopeless direction. Andy is put in the impossible situation of keeping the most important promise she has ever made, or saving the man that she can't help but love.

Author Ginger Voight turns up the scandals, secrets, passion and heartbreak to 11 in a very Jackie Collins type of way. Flawed characters face excess and all the pitfalls that entails. They fight as hard as they can to hold onto anything real in the fake world of celebrity. (Goodreads)

Review:
Ahh…what a web we weave! Rock Star picks up where we left off in Groupie and now we get the perspectives of Andy, Graham and Vanni! The love triangle- gets more heated- but we finally get answers that we (well at least I) have been waiting for.

Rock Star gets way deeper than its predecessor however, it is still as infuriating! The challenges that always seem to plague Andy and Vanni’s relationship reach an all-time high and up to the very end you’re on your toes wondering what will happen next! Finally we see Andy become a tad stronger when it comes to Vanni but now seems her weakness fall in with Graham. Needless to say this is still a fantastic book and series to read!

If you love rock stars then this is the series for you to read! I will be on pins and needles to read the next book in the series which is set to be released next year!
