About this ebook

It was supposed to be simple: Film the tour. Build my portfolio. And for Heavens sake, keep it in my pants.

Then I met Felix Krasinski.

The captivating and infuriatingly cocky frontman of Velvet Drift commands attention everywhere he goes—including mine. Am I proud of it? No. I’m supposed to be filming their perfromance, not fantasizing about his perfect abs. I’m determined to be taken seriously, and hooking up with the ridiculously hot rockstar is the fastest way to tank my credibility.

Felix is always in control, and I am an impulsive rule-breaker. We don’t make sense. But we can’t seem to stay away from each other.

Because, between his uptight habits and annoyingly perfect jawline, there's more to Felix than his stage presence and legendary last name. He’s protective, vulnerable, and gets me in a way no one else does. 

But my career depends on keeping things professional, and his future hinges on staying laser-focused on his band's success. 

Every heated argument, every stolen kiss, makes me want to throw caution—and professionalism—to the wind.

One thing’s certain—this summer tour is about to get a lot more complicated than I bargained for.

For readers who love:

🎸 A protective guitarist who falls first—and hard

🎸 An aspiring filmmaker finding her voice behind the camera

🎸 Found family vibes on a summer tour bus

🎸 Late-night confessions, unspoken feelings, and slow-burn chemistry

🎸 And a heartfelt happily-ever-after that hits every emotional note before the final encore

Walk the Line is the first book in the Blood & Bone and Turn it Up second generation series crossover. Grab this new adult, angsty, forced proximity, steamy contemporary rockstar romance. Walk the Line can be read as a standalone.

Ratings and reviews

I love getting to see the next generation of book couples I loved. These two are both the children of rockstars who know what tour life is like but learn that they were not prepared for what it actually meant. Felix is all in from the beginning, focused only on Maggie. Maggie battles her own insecurities and fights her attraction. This creates that delicious tension that can't do anything but eventually explode! Add the excitement of a summer music festival tour and the antics of a new band getting to know each other for an engaging and entertaining, forget your responsibilities, sleep doesn't matter, story.

It is no secret I am a HUGE fan of Paula, each one of her books have stirred up all the feels and left me unable to put her books down. This new generation of the series where I first fell in love with her writings and story telling was the Blood and Bone series so it is amazing to see this new series come to fruition. Felix and Morgan are both children of famous rock stars wanting to pave their own path and prove not only to the world they have talent in their own right....

Five stars are nowhere nearly enough for this book. Ms. Dombrowiak and Ms. Parker have given us a book that I am sure their readers have been waiting for. Imagine Felix Krasinski, the son of Jack Krasinski from Ms. Parker's Turn It Up series, sexy and ever so talented, joining forces with Maggie Morgan, the sassy and feisty daughter of Cash Morgan from Ms. Dombrowiak's Blood & Bone Series. These two know how to get under one another's skin. The witty banter and the flirting, perfection.
