Book Description

January 30, 2009
Life in a rock band can be crazy, outrageous, busy...and lonely. After twelve years in the business, singer Nikolas Vincent knows firsthand that bandmates can become family, but they can't replace the one true love every person seeks. Nik thinks he might have found that love two years earlier, but the curvaceous woman in question had been the best friend to his then girlfriend. And a smart man knows that coming between two best friends is a big no-no. Now, through the hands of fate, the possible love of Nik's life is back, and he vows not to let her go again. Will Nik's love song strike the right chord?

A life-altering event moves Breeanne Tillen to quit her job and pursue a new career. She's learning quickly that pictures can be worth a thousand words, but she's not convinced her pictures are worth even a hundred yet. So when a surprise meeting with an old acquaintance--and onetime crush--tumbles Bree into the exciting world of rock 'n roll, she has no idea how much her life can change. New opportunities push her photography career forward, while an old crush turns into a new love and an old friend turns into a new enemy. Can Bree move beyond her painful past and have that picture-perfect future with the crooner?

More About the Author

I was born in and have lived in suburban Maryland all my life, moving only three times and even then, less than half an hour away each time. Growing up, I was the youngest and only girl in a family of four siblings, suffering mightily and for many long years under the hands of my three older brothers. To escape, I locked myself away in my bedroom with books, books, and more books! I am and have been a voracious reader of romance novels for as long as I can remember...even before I was writing my own stories as a pre-teen.

At 11 years old, I started my writing hobby with poetry, then began writing "short" romantic stories at about 12. Although I always wanted to be a writer, I found myself instead working with computers. I was in the computer industry for more years than I want to remember, first as an amateur and then as an expert (of sorts).

My husband and I met online (before online dating was even a glimmer in some internet boomer's eye), and we knew each other for eight years before we got engaged and married. Even now, after more than eighteen years together, we are best friends, and he is one of my biggest supporters. We live close to both our families and spend as much time with them as possible. We have spent recent years in our single family home, purchased partially for the large yard that our dog thinks is her own personal park.

This review is from: The Crooner (Paperback)
I'm usually a huge fan of Ms. Allen's work. I buy all of her novels and generally enjoy them. Unfortunately I can't say the same for this one. It started off well and I really got into it and liked both the lead characters, however midway through the novel the actions of Bree, the protagonist, had me thinking that she was one dumb broad. It's one of those stupid misunderstandings in a novel, where, had the characters just been honest with each other, they would've saved themselves a lot of trouble. Sometimes those misunderstandings are believable, but in this case all I could think was, "Is she serious???" The book is worth reading if you like BBW heroines but this is not one of Allen's best work.
