I gave TRACKS 3 1/2-4 stars

 BOOK DESCRIPTION:

When Harvard Law student, Dylan Ackhart, moves to Boston with her best friend- the last thing she expects to find is Jeremy Mason. Jeremy is sexy, smart, and passionate- and currently the most famous rock star in the world.
From the first moment Dylan meets Jeremy, she's attracted to him. But she soon finds the fame and press can wear on you. Plus, Jeremy seems to be hiding things from her- including his relationship with the mysterious blue-haired girl. 

Tracks takes you on a ride through the not so glamorous side of dating a rock star- sex, drugs, 
rock and roll.



REVIEW:


Tracks is not your traditional "Romance" novel.  This story is about real life.  Yes, it is about a rockstar, but the addictions are very real.  I enjoyed this book, the fact that there were many real life scenarios.  I am sure we all know someone that suffers from addictions.  This story is very graphic in how a person reacts when they are detoxing and how it affects everyone in your life.

Dylan just moved with her best friend to attend college,  that is where she meets Jeremy.  Jeremy is you classic rock star. She met Jeremy when her friend made her go to their concert with her.  Due to insane fans she was trampled and taken back stage to seek medical attention.  The sights she saw back stage were less then desirable to say the least.  Dylan is your everyday girl. She is not a prude but she is not as experienced as some of the groupies that travel in Jeremy's circle.  

Things are going really well for Dylan and Jeremy until the blue haired girl shows up and trows a monkey wrench in the situation.  Can love keep a relationship together even though there is no trust and lies?  Does the blue haired girl ruin everything?  Can serious addictions be stopped for love? I guess you will have to read TRACKS to find out all of the answers.  I don't want to give too much away with this story because I do not want to ruin the experience for you.

I can't wait to see what is in store for Dylan and Jeremy in the second book TRIALS.


EXCERPT:


I stand back and look at him. His face still has a sheen of sweat, his eyes beautiful and glassy. His cheeks look unbelievably chiseled in the light, aided by the dark black scruff on his face. His lips are pale pink, and I watch them turn up in a smile. The realization hits me that this brilliant, gorgeous man is somehow now officially mine.
    I run my arms up his bare chest and push the shirt off from his shoulders. It falls to the floor. I lean over and kiss along his collar bone. He sighs, grabbing my hair. I trail my fingers down his chest, letting my fingernails dig into him.
    “Careful,” he says breathlessly. “We won’t make it to bed.”
    I stand up straight and look in his eyes, undoing my zipper and letting my dress fall to the floor. I step out of it. “Good,” I say, low and deep.
    He grabs my chin hard. “Oh, Miss Ackhart.” He kisses me hard, biting my bottom lip. He pulls away. “You’re in trouble,” he says, his eyes burning with desire.
