This book is not talked about enough, I loved how it brought light to the idea of bus/touring life, and yet kept me enthralled with the romance aspect. Plus, who can say no to a family-like band aspect? So adorable.

Nick Fletcher is in the band Blue is the Color and knows he can't keep up this current pace for much longer. When one of his best friends/band member passes out on stage he can't help but go off on the person who tweeted that Jasper was high on stage.
Dalia Brenner had no idea the firestorm she was creating after tweeting a video of Jasper Antonio collapsing on stage after accompanying her sister, Melly, to the concert. Yet now she is jobless and wondering how she is going to afford her rent and tuition.
When Dalia is offered a job as a personal assistant to the band's manager, Tali she agrees but vows to stay as far away from Nick as she can possibly get. Unfortunately the attraction between the two of them is mounting and will they be able to stay away from each other when they are stuck together on the bus for an entire summer?
When the tour is over will Dalia be able to return to her life and school and will Nick be able to let her go?
This was a great book and I am really excited for this new series!
I liked Nick and I knew why he tweeted what he did even though it was super inappropriate but he went into protection mode over Jasper. He probably shouldn't have used the language that he did but it definitely got the book going in a certain direction that was filled with tension that you knew was going to erupt!
I was a little mad at Dalia for posting the tweet in the first place, especially once you knew what really happened. I did feel bad that she lost her job but it led her to get the perfect one with the band and you knew it was going to be an exciting ride!
The tension and hatred between Nick and Dalia at the beginning was so evident and you knew it also had to do with the sexual chemistry between the two that was so explosive! I loved reading the two of them battling and then with the big interview in Phoenix I loved how Dalia stepped in and what happened with Nick after.
When the two form a truce you could see the differences between the two of them and what they each wanted. It was interesting that Nick was more serious than Dalia and I wondered how that would impact things as the tour got closer to an end date. When Dalia was applying for positions for school I knew things were going to go sideways!
I was disappointed in Dalia for not telling Nick everything that was happening as it led to a heartbreaking showdown that caused so much hurt. I was also a little disappointed in Dalia for never watching the band but she would watch others.
I was glad that Dalia got a job that she wanted and I was also happy Nick recognized what he needed to do as he was so burnt out.
The very end was awesome and I loved that Dalia realized what she needed to do!
I am hoping for more books with the band in them!

Have never read a more boring couple. Age gap couldn’t even save it, I’m also not convinced the heroine actually liked the hero.

I love me a good rockstar romance and this one was SO GOOD! First of all, Blue is the Color is a rad name for a band! Second, I freaking loved Nick and Dalia’s chemistry and banter! Third, the characters in this book seemed so REAL to me. I was sucked into their story and 110% invested all the way through. I’m officially a BIG FAN of Julia Wolf!

I feel like every character's personality traits were told, not shown. That being said, I really want to read Jasper and David's books!
I really enjoyed this book. Dalia and Nick captured my heart. You can only fight your feeling so long before they leave you breathless and wanting.
Dalia and Nick came together under not-so-great circumstances, she is a unique and confident college student just trying to graduate and he is a grumpy, moody rockstar traveling the world putting on shows. They don't see eye to eye and grate on each other nerves to get under the skin, but sometimes when you love to hate someone that hate actually turns into something more.
This is a soft enemy to lovers' story with just the right amount of spice! I absolutely loved Dalia and Nick's story.

Dalia Brenner really doesn't want to accompany her sister to a concert. She doesn't even like the freaking band! So, when after a couple of songs, one of the band members (clearly stoned or drunk, she thinks) gets sick on stage and the concert is canceled, she's oh so very pissed. And what do pissed off millennials do? They rant on social media. When the lead singer retweets her post and calls her the C-word, hell breaks loose. His fans go after her ( the band member was actually sick and in the hospital) and she ends up losing her job because of the attention she's getting (as not all publicity is good publicity).
Nick Fletcher wasn't thinking clearly when he went off on Twitter and now his impulsive behavior is coming back to bite him in the ass - as a PR move, he'll apologize and they will offer Dalia a job with the tour. Why oh why did she have to be so spunky... and curvy ... and everything? Life on the tour bus just turned into hell...
I really wanted to love this book. I love the rockstar trope and the feisty heroine... but from page 1 I couldn't find myself liking either MC. They both come off as mean and it took me forever to get into the story. Why didn't I DNF, you ask? NARRATION. I can't praise Connor Crais enough and he was still a baby narrator in this one! His Nick is just perfect! And now that he's an author himself, please please, Connor, find a way to sing in every book you write?! Just so good! Jennifer Boom is new to me and she has a nice voice and does a great job with Dalia. You can hear Dalia's ennui and snark.
Again, it's a well written book, I just couldn't get invested enough in the characters. Maybe next time. And yep, it's steamy! ;)
