This YA series (The Jamieson Collection)Β was suggested for my “ultimate list of rock star reads” by Charity, and Karen listed book #1 (Rock and a Hard Place) in her 2011 top twenty list! They sound like great reads and are officially on my TBR list!
And while the original covers were beautiful, check out their new updated look, now that these books have been picked up by “HarperCollins”. The old covers are still on Amazon, but will be updated once the HarperCollins versions are released. But, we get a first look at them, right here on my blog!!!
Congratulations, Angie!! These are wonderful.
Rock and a Hard Place
One day while watching the Interstate exit for her dadβs long awaited return, Libbyβs life is rocked when Peter Jamieson steps off his tour bus and into her life. After a couple chance meetings with Peter, Libby breaks away from her perfect behavior and her life changes course.
Peter longs for normalcy away from the screaming fans who know nothing about the real him. He is amazed to discover Libby has never heard of him or his band. Soon their friendship turns to love. While Peter battles his family’s growing interference so he can spend time with Libby, she struggles with her eccentric aunt who turns more bizarre each day.
Their lives are torn apart when Peter’s family intrudes and Libby disappears. Peterβs desperate search for her comes up empty. Can they find their way back to each other while the world plots against them?
Snapshot (The Jamieson Collection)Β (This is book two in the Jamieson Collection. Rock and a Hard Place is book one).
Marti Hunter hates rockers and anything remotely related to the rock-and-roll lifestyle. She thought she’d left that all behind, along with her drug-addicted mother and absent-minded, rock legend father. Now she lives with her grandmother, and Marti’s life is finally normal. Just the way she likes it.
For Adam Jamieson, normal is not possible. He is the genius guitar player of the band Jamieson. He’s ecstatic to finally get a two-week break from his micromanaged life and a chance to hang with regular teens. Adam’s shaving off his trademark curls and going undercover.
But when Marti, the reluctant rock princess, and Adam, the undercover guitar wizard, meet, sparks fly in more ways than one. They spend their time alternating between making out and driving each other crazy. But their summer adventures of skinny dipping, storm watching, and stolen kisses are brought to a halt when tragedy strikes.
Suddenly, they’re on opposite sides of the country, just when they need each other the most. Can Marti survive life with her dad and his vicious girlfriend? Will Adam get so fed up with his over-managed life and controlling parents that he quits the band?
Snapshot. A moment in time that changes two people forever.
