(Jan 2020) I loved Vance & Jules story, but I loveeeeee Mace & Stella’s. From the first few pages a lump settled in my throat and for the first half of the book I struggled to hold back the tears as I felt every emotion Stella was experiencing.
Mace & Stella was a totally different ride to the other Rock Chick stories, it was deep, raw and powerful. 
It shattered me, then pieced me back together again. 

I loved how this book has POV from quite a few of the rock chicks and hot bunch, nice twist and good glimpse into all the emotions running wild. 

The flash forward to the future at the end was beautiful touch, I could easily stop here and be in rock chick bliss. Actually surprised there is more to come as the flash forward gives away Hector & Ally’s stories. However I am itching for the original Rock Chick Ally to have her story told. 

Tip: google the lyrics or listen to the songs mentioned as you’re reading. It cranked up the emotion understanding what Stella was feeling each time she was singing.
Anna Weatherup version of Black is how I envision Stella singing
