A hot and consuming New Adult romance about a wayward musician and the one girl who keeps him grounded…
At college, Rachel has a reputation for being a sarcastic flirt with a thing for star athletes. No one at school knows that she’d had her heart ripped to shreds by her high school sweetheart, who’d driven them both off the side of the road on a borrowed motorcycle, and then abandoned her. No one knows the real Rachel Mattson—except one person…
Ever since he helped nurse his sister’s feisty best friend back to health, pierced bass player Kai Nakos has been head over heels in love. But the supposed bad boy can’t risk letting Rachel know the truth—especially now that the two of them are back in their hometown for the summer, together for the first time since the months following that fateful night. Never mind that Rachel’s ex is back, groveling for her forgiveness.
Shaken by her ex’s return, Rachel finds herself turning to the one guy she knows she can trust. Kai is willing to hide his feelings for her, just to have Rachel touch him again. After all, this is only a temporary fling. Until it becomes something more. But maybe it had been more all along.
Ten Things About Kai
2. His mother might be one hundred percent Dutch but he prefers her Native American fry bread over his grandmother’s, even though it’s her recipe. Oh, and her cornbread too.
3. He’s a total music snob. He loathes boy bands that are manufactured in studio, even though he’s a studio engineer himself.
4. The day he finally confessed his feelings to Rachel was probably the best day of his life. Best night, too. *wink*
5. Because Christina Lee doesn’t do epilogues (but she will one day soon, she’s sure of it), what readers don’t know is that at the end of Whisper to Me, Kai took Rachel back to her apartment, her roommate Ella stayed gone, and he made love to her all night long. Dirty talk and all.
6. Since then, Kai has tried to see Rachel at least every other weekend. Even though he’s as busy with his studio as she is with college, he misses her like crazy during the week.
7. His all-time favorite scent will always be “rice flower”, even if Rachel stops wearing it one day.
8. His favorite kind of pizza is mushroom and black olive. Yes really. Even Rachel wrinkles her nose.
9. His relationship with his father has vastly improved since he got my ass in gear. In fact, it’s great.
10. Kai plans to marry Rachel someday with Chief Red Hawk presiding, at least in spirit. She just doesn’t know it yet.
