Review: Lilac

 


Title: Lilac

Author: B.B. Reid

Release Date: December 7th




Synopsis:


I, Braxton Fawn, am the luckiest girl alive. 

Or so the world keeps telling me.

Every so often, gods walk the earth. This time they came as musicians. When Bound loses its lead guitarist, yours truly is chosen to fill his shoes. From dive bars to the big stage, my instant claim to fame is nothing short of a fairytale. The only problem? 

My new bandmates.

Jaded, gorgeous, and ridiculously talented—they’re determined to turn my dream into a nightmare. It’s no secret I wasn’t their first choice. I wasn’t even their last. The label wants a new image, Bound wants me gone, but I’ve got my own agenda.

To succeed I have to survive a world tour, public scrutiny, and idols turned enemies. But the biggest threat of all isn’t a meticulous frontman, a narcissistic bassist, and a drummer with too many secrets. 

It’s me. 

Somehow, I must resist the temptation of Houston Morrow, Loren James, and Jericho Noble.

It seemed easy enough when I boarded their tour bus, but it only took one city for the lines we’d drawn to blur. 

Only ninety-nine more to go.



I am at a loss for words for this book. Lilac is only the the 3rd or so reverse harem book I have read. And let me tell you it took me by surprise.
Braxton Fawn had her dream come true- became the newest guitarist in the band Bound. Her instant fame is nothing short of a fairy tale. Except for one thing. Her band-mates are set on hating her guts. 
They are jaded, gorgeous and ridiculously talented. But set on turning her dream into a nightmare.
To succeed Braxton has to resist the temptation of a meticulous frontman, a narcissistic bassist, and a drummer with too many secrets to survive. It seemed easy enough with her idols turned enemies when she first boarded the your bus, but it only took one city for the lines to blur. Only ninety- nine more to go.

What can I say about Lilac? It took me by surprise. I fell in love with the story and the characters. 
Houston was more than just the lead singer of Bound, he lead the group of lifelong friends, and was a alpha-hole who needed to be control of everything all the time. 
Loren the bassist had a devil may care attitude who was concerned, reckless, and used to getting his way.
Jericho the drummer was the sweet, silent type. But none of them were prepared for Braxton. 
Braxton who wouldn't let anyone walk all over. She was strong willed and when someone pushed her, she shoved back. She was a rebel, who made the band-mates of Bound shut up, take notice and listen. 
If you love the why-choose stories of Reverse Harem, rockstar Romances with drama and angst and hot sex then you need to to grab Lilac and fall into the world of Bound. It was 4.5 amazing ⭐ out of 5 ⭐

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds. I was sure everything would be okay if I had them. It wasn’t. The fate of our people is in my hands and I know we’re better off if I’m alone. After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure. I won’t ever forgive myself. *Broken Bonds is a full length reverse harem PNR novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book will end on a cliffhanger. It's recommended for 18+ due to language and sexual situations. Goodreads | Amazon   So I am rereading the Bonds that Tie series to read the newest release Broken Ties.
