Callie is a best-selling romance writer, with a movie deal for her second book and on the cusp of striking a deal for her third one. She has been writing non-stop for 10 years, and that (and a bad experience during college) has left her with little time for love. Writer's block has never been an issue for her, until now, and her editor suggests a change of scenery might do the trick. So Callie moves to Martha's Vineyard for the rest of winter to force herself to write. She didn't count on meeting Jack, her neighbor, on the first day there, or that he'd be so distracting and seemingly attracted to her, as well. They move into an easy relationship and while the deadline for Callie to move back to Boston is approaching fast, it's Jack's past that might prove an insurmountable hurdle for them to get past it.

I liked Callie a lot. She seemed very down-to-earth and mature in some ways, very naive and innocent in others. I'm not sure what I feel about Jack, though. He was really pushy, especially at the start, and it made me uncomfortable how he would almost force himself on Callie until she finally put a stop to that. Still, he was all in at full-speed, whereas she needed a bit more coaxing. They had good chemistry, and the sex scenes were hot, so there's that.

I hated Liz and Alex, and it was awful the way they conspired to ruin Callie and Jack's relationship. I would've liked that either Jack or Callie had more of a confrontation with them and to see them get their comeuppance.

Without wanting to spoil this too much, I have to say I wasn't too fond of Jack's reaction to Callie when she came back, and while Callie's reaction to what made her leave was a bit over the top, with all things considered I might have done the same thing she did.

Overall, this was an enjoyable, different kind of read than what I'm used to by Ann Lister. No less good, just different, well-written and well-paced. Recommendable!

ABOUT AUTHOR

Ann Lister is a native New Englander currently living on the island of Martha's Vineyard with her husband. She has pulled details from her years living in the New England area and uses many local settings and landmarks in her novels.

After graduating art school, marrying, and raising two daughters, she established her own video production company. Her nearly two decades working in video production included work within the music industry and won her a coveted Telly Award. Her 'behind-the-scenes' exposure to the music world and her love of rock music is the inspiration for her erotic rock star romances.

The Rock Gods series gave her Bestselling Author status on Amazon. Beyond The Music, Book 7 in the series, reached #1 in Gay Erotica in the Pre-Order and held that spot for several weeks. The last book in the series launches the spin-off series, Guarding The Gods, which is releasing in early summer 2016.

Fall For Me, Book One in the series was a Finalist in the 2013 Rainbow Award. Each book in this series brings her two favorite elements together: musicians and the love between two men. These stories focus on what it truly means to love; love unconditionally, love without restrictions or labels, love without fear or judgment – to just simply love.
