More Than Music

by Elizabeth Briggs

Overview

One forbidden kiss changes everything...but our secret romance might tear our band apart.

Everyone knows geeky girls like me don't get to be rock stars. But when tattooed singer Jared Cross invites me to join his band on a reality TV show competition, how can I refuse?

There's just one rule: don't sleep with anyone in the band.

Not a problem. Really.

Until I discover there's more to Jared than his flirty smile, sinful voice, and bad boy reputation. Until one forbidden kiss changes everything.

I thought I could resist him. I was wrong. Now our secret romance might tear our band apart and cost us the win. Is following my dream worth losing my heart?

Editorial Reviews

09/01/2014
Predictable but sweet harmonies characterize Briggs’s new adult debut, the first in the Chasing the Dream series. Maddie Taylor is a rising college senior with a particular gift for nearly flawless musical recall. She joins a friend’s band for a reality-show audition, thinking it’s a temporary arrangement until they find a new full-time bassist. The fine print, however, has her staying for much more than one song. She reluctantly gives up a prestigious internship to follow her rock-and-roll dream—and soon she’s falling for the band’s intense lead vocalist, Jared. Will they be able to traverse the quagmire of a televised music competition while maintaining their integrity as a band and as individuals? The scathing indictment of reality-show consumerism and the well developed characters carry an otherwise unexceptional plot. For all its music-scene edginess, the tale is a well-worn standard that gets lost in overplayed details and manufactured intensity. Agent: Kate Testerman, KT Literary. (BookLife)
