Rock star Phoenix Blackstone never thought he’d fall in love with the designated driver.
Sure, she’s strait-laced and uptight, maybe even a little prickly at times. Not the best fit for a “rock star”, right? But that’s part of the appeal. There was always something about Savanah. In high school, I worshiped her from afar. But while I was the boy from Last Chance Beach’s version of a ghetto, she was born in a 24-carat crib. She was the beautiful princess in the castle; I wasn’t fit to live in her gatehouse. Although Savanah had never seemed like the rest of the glamor girls, she was still untouchable. But now I’m coming back to the island having garnered fame and fortune. Maybe my platinum records will tip the scales in my favor.
Savanah Drew never wanted the silver spoon stuck in her mouth.
But it’s not like I could do anything about it. And Phoenix’s dad may have worked on the docks, but Phoenix was the unapproachable one. His good looks, charm, and charisma, made him popular beyond my reach—I always knew he would go far. But when we were growing up, some people looked down on him because his dad wore a slicker and not a three-piece suit. One thing I can tell you, the Blackstones would be the first to come to the aid of someone in need. The people on my side of the island? If they can’t throw money at it to fix it, they don’t want anything to do with it.
But no amount of money or charisma can keep you safe when someone is out to get you, and someone on the island is gunning for the band members of Insatiable Fire, and anyone they’re close to. Is Savanah the next target?
**Warning** The protagonists in this book use slurs when referring to Phoenix's heritage as an indigenous person. The point--as it is coming from the "bad guys"-- is to show that it is wrong and give an example of how harmful those words can be. The author in no way, shape, or form condones this behavior. If racial discrimination is particularly disturbing to you, this may not be the book for you.
