Brand-new Rock Star Romance
from USA Today-Bestselling Author Blair Babylon!
Every night, she stands offstage, watching rock star Xan Valentine and his band, Killer Valentine, set fire to the crowd with music until they would burn down the city for him. His music wraps her until her fingers dance, desperately wanting the piano, but her terrified legs could never walk onto a stage.
Most nights, when Xan Valentine strides off the stage, his dark eyes shift, blurring, and he becomes Alexandre de Valentinois again.
Sometimes, Xan won’t let go.
Some of the other band members, Rade and Grayson, are caught in a death spiral of booze, drugs, and groupies. The drummer, Tryp, is too infatuated with his new wife to do more than show up to play.
Xan is the only one who can compel them onto the stage. He’s holding Killer Valentine together with the force of his will.
This can’t go on.
Something has to break.

Excerpt from Wild Thing
Georgie
rolled on the bed in the dark, touching Xan’s chest. “It’s
freaky, you know, that you can write these beautiful love songs and
not believe in love at all.”
“They’re
just songs.”
“Who
do you sing them to?”
“All
the women out there.” He shifted on the bed, crossing his long legs
at his ankles.
“But
you’re not in love with them.”
He
smirked and reached for the package of cigarettes on the nightstand
again, but he didn’t pick it up. “No,
but they’re in love with me. I say all the right things, and I’ll
say them every time they want to hear them. All they have to do is
touch their iPod, and I’ll whisper that I’ll love them forever or
belt out that I’m longing for them. I never leave my socks under
the coffee table or watch sports while they’re doing the housework.
I never complain about their figures or that they’re always busy.
They can love me like they love God: from afar, with all their
hearts, and with no chance of disillusionment. I’m their perfect
boyfriend.”
She
laid her chin on her crossed arms. “You’re
not my perfect boyfriend.”
“No,
I’m your demon lover.” He curled a long strand of her hair around
his hand. “I summon you to my bed, seduce you in depraved and
debauched ways, and abandon you in the morning.”
Georgie
grinned. “I take it back. You are my perfect boyfriend.”
