Opening Night
Acerca de este libro electrónico
Jimmy Trent wasn’t born with a guitar in his hand, but his big brother Ken showed him the ropes at a tender age. Jimmy was hooked, and when the band Brainchild was born, he began to fulfill his childhood dream. With Ken by his side, Jimmy soars with his band, reaching milestones most rock stars simply get to witness from their parent’s garages. But when Mandy, Jimmy’s first love, comes into the picture, all bets are off. When the supermodel doesn’t bring him all the promises a proper wife should, the rock star finds himself in a hole that he can’t dig himself out of.
Cindy Kilgore never thought her beloved husband would stoop to the level that fifty percent of men have, but when she receives the news that he’s warmed another woman’s bed, she packs her bags to move back to the hometown she’s missed. With her mother suffering from a recent stroke, it’s all the more reason for Cindy’s return. And with her two-bit a-hole boss driving a stake through her budding career, it gives her three reasons to move on. She never expects to find the job of a lifetime at a recording studio. But the job comes with strings attached that she’s bluntly acquainted with the second she sees rock star Jimmy Trent answer the door.
With Cindy’s surprisingly apt skills, Jimmy quickly notices that Cindy is cut out for more than just an assistant’s position, and this realization could not have come at a better time, since they’re missing one head in the team. She quickly takes on more and more responsibility with ease and enthusiasm, until an unexpected visit to the emergency room threatens to bring Cindy’s new career to a grinding halt. Jimmy has a tough decision to make, and with the growing pressure of a new record and a recording contract’s ink that isn’t even dried yet, the rock star and his band need to make some quick, impossible changes. Jimmy finds himself unable to turn his cheek on Cindy. What’s worse, she doesn’t even know it…yet.
Filled with heartache, heartbreak and a handsome helping of triumph, ‘Opening Night’ is the perfect complement to ‘Dress Rehearsal’. Get your tissues out, this one is a tearjerker! Fair warning: this story covers sensitive adult subject matter and has course language, violence, drug use and explicit sex. Readers will see rock stars in a whole new light and find themselves with aching hearts.

About the Author
Sandra has been writing poems and short stories since middle school, and writing full length, self-published novels since 2010, using several pen names.
Writing full-length steamy romance series has quickly become a love for this author. Her stories have elements of humor, family issues, suspense and personal growth. Her books take the reader right into the bedroom with the characters to feel the same intensity as the lovers do in the story. Sandra's goal is to have the reader rooting for the main couple...and she doesn't disappoint.
You'll find this author working out weekday mornings at ungodly hours. She's gluten and dairy free, and is probably the only person on earth who doesn't do coffee or chocolate.
Her favorite movie is Bohemian Rhapsody, her favorite tv shows are Friends and The Connors. She's also a die-hard Rocky fan and has read the Fifty Shades trilogy and watched the movies more times than she cares to admit.
Sandra is married with two daughters and is a lover of all things four-legged, including her own two furbabies.
The Ford Brothers series focuses on five swoon-worthy brothers who each served in the military, and lost their billionaire father suddenly, which left them to run his airline after his death. Each book features one brother, but they make appearances in all five novels. In case you haven't guessed, the titles in the Ford Brothers series have been inspired by hazard warning signs, an idea the author came up with after completing a health and safety course prior to starting the series.
The Miles for Love series is about unexpected love, and it features the Lynch family; four brothers and one sister, who are each passionate, imperfect, and are just like you and I...but way sexier and with much more interesting lives. They are very individual and each have a unique story to tell.
The Rock Star Romance series is inspired by the death of Eddie Van Halen on October 6, 2020. It is a standalone series unlike any other this author has written. Look for this series coming in spring 2021!
