Sweet Ache

Hawkin Play, the bad boy rock star with a good guy heart, has lived a lifetime of cleaning up after his twin brother’s mistakes. Hunter’s most recent screw-up could land Hawke in jail and risk the band’s future. Hawke agrees to guest lecture at a local college to stay in the judge’s good graces—and a bet with his bandmate to seduce his sexy teaching assistant is icing on the cake.

Quinlan Westin is harder to bed than Hawke imagined. She knows his type and is determined to avoid the rocker at all costs—even if their attraction runs deeper than simple lust.

Just as Hawke might finally be winning over the girl, his brother has other plans. When Hunter realizes his twin finally has a weakness, he’ll stop at nothing to take advantage…

********************* 

At first I couldn't figure out how these characters fit into the Driven series but it didn't take long to figure out Quinlan is Colten's sister. 

I did the audio version of this book and it tends to a bit harder to skim through because you can miss a lot in the 30 seconds you can go forward. Why would I want to skim through you ask? well I couldn't take the constant internal war Quinlan was having about how hot Hawkin is. Seriously it was over kill I wanted to scream "we get it he's hot now move on" but I swear it lasted for chapters. Quinlan is the girl that doesn't fawn all over Hawkin - well she does but silently. So she presents a very hot challenge for him and a beat that he isn't willing to pass up. There's a lot of baggage when it comes to Hawkin and his demons run deep. It's a messy road these two start out on and Quinlan tries to not let her heart get involved but it's impossible. As each one of Hawkins bags come open Quinlan will have to decide if he's worth the fight. Once things blow up then smooth out just to blow up again. Top that off with someone close to Hawkin that wants to hurt Quinlan and you got yourself a dramatic ending.  A lot of hot, steamy, juicy sex scenes. Fantastic ending.
