It was a an emotional but sweet and spicy book. The FMC really hit rock-bottom, and the way the MMCs helped her through that ordeal is beautiful. The characters were all well-developed and fleshed out, and I love their dynamics and interactions. I honestly find their personalities really unique. There are common tropes in this genre but I can't really categorize the MMCs in any of them.

I'm just kinda bummed that Pax's screen time were lessened on the latter parts of the book. I know they need to somehow have equal screen times and that it's quite tricky to do considering there's five of them, but I noticed that his character fell off much more on the last chapters in favor of the others. Other than that, I really like this and I'm looking forward to the next book!

If you're into:

• Contemporary RH romance
• Rockband going on tours and such
• FMC in her lowest point
• MMCs with dark histories and hidden pain
• Spicy scenes (just a heads up that the pacing was really slow and the story was more focused on the characters rather than the plot. The book has a lot of spicy scenes. Not exactly plot=smex, but close to it)
• Slight hints of mm

Then give this a try! Highly recommended.
