Maybe it is my age, but this book was a whole lot of confusing.
I totally loved Kate's Fighting Redemption so I was so hopeful of a great read.
Maybe I set my expectations too high.
In the opening chapters we are introduced to so many characters that I remain confused as to which are band members, which are friends, which are family. So there is Frog, Cooper, Jake, Mitch, Tate, Travis, Jared, Coby, Casey, Mac, Evie, Steve - you get my point, I could name more......
Then there is the issue over nicknames, why did Kate give them so many? Mac gets, Mackenzie, Macface, Mactard, Mackelwaine - just why? Evie gets Genevieve (her proper name) and Sandwich.
Parts of the plot felt a bit shoved in for the sake of it. I didn't get why the whole Evie/Casey thing happened or even what the hell happened.
I did like Pete! Not a band member, not family, not a friend just a dog. I picture Mike Thurston as Jared, which was also a bonus.

Not for me.
It's a case of they like each other but she sees other people,this would have worked as they live too far apart and live completely different lives so it's not very practical to get together. It had a lot of potential as they are texting each other and getting to know each other as 'friends'.
Things change, he moves near her with work but he has said he doesn't do relationships so why would she think he is interested. Why should she understand he is angry when she goes on a date with someone else.
A plus is the group of friends but I felt there were too many, may have been better to introduce them as the series advanced rather than so many people all at once.

3.25 stars. I quite enjoyed this story and the writing, but there's still some growth needed to get to 4 stars.
In some ways, this felt like an amateur attempt at KA's Rock Chick world - band on the rise, bad ass boys with the dangerous job, job leaks to the band, etc. But even with those similarities, I enjoyed it. The back and forth between Evie and Jared is mostly great, although him just coming back out of the blue feels like a bit of a cheat. I'm curious to read more about this world (though I'm mad Mac's book isn't next).

Give Me Love started making so much little sense to me, and it took me a good few pages in to figure out what everyone was talking about. But knowing what was happening in the book didn't make it a good one for me.
A lot of the story brought me back to Kristen Ashley's Rock Chick series. There were way too many similarities for my taste, and that made me unable to enjoy this as an original work.
There are the obvious differences, but it's basically a crew of people who banter a lot, a woman and a guy who've been pining for each other for a really long time and are obviously meant to be together but can't seem to manage that because they're too busy fighting, a bad guy threatening the life of the heroine, and the hero working at some sort of badass investigation company and taking care of it.
Same formula, different characters.
Also, for some reason, the author thought it was acceptable to have some characters call others 'retard'?? I don't know what that was about, other than extremely disrespectful and offensive.
So yeah, not the book for me. And I definitely won't be reading the sequel.
