Taut Strings A Rockstar Romance
Reviews

** spoiler alert ** No one is allowed to judge me for this one. I needed to read a rock star romance I was in the mood so please no comments necessary. Honestly this was a little different take on this trope which I enjoyed. The FMC is a 21 year old who lost her parents a few years ago and assumed the responsibility of raising her younger sister. As such, she has these hang ups about pursing a serious musical career with her own band. This book explores her feelings of obligation and insecurity despite her talent. The MMC’s are also exploring loss but they’re feelings aren’t developed as much except for Abel. Also!!! The romance was super interesting, I’ve read polyamorous relationships before but I loveee how the author explained this relationship. I think there were some holes in the story as far as how the 5th band member died, how no one else knew he had drug issues, when the rest didn’t have any substance abuse issues. Some parts of the story could have been more fleshed out but overall really enjoyable!

Wow The author reached out to me and asked me to read this and review for my Booktok.... let’s just say I fell in love!

This was an amazing breakout novel and I can’t wait for more! “You and your unbelievable talent appeared out of nowhere and swept all of them away. I think I knew it before they did. I saw you, and I could tell that you would make them fall in love with music all over again, and I hated the whole thing. Hated how you’d make them want to keep going.” Think about how every situation can set you up for success or for failure. How something that you’re so incredibly passionate about can influence others and put things in motion. Adeline is that person. Forced to grow up at an early age, she puts her family first before her own needs, whilst holding onto a shred of who she used to be. Insert Bleeding Moonlight: Abel, Silas, Cole and Ezra. They are her influence. They are pieces of the puzzle she was missing to give her a sense of purpose. “Taut Strings,” by Gabrielle Sands is a Reverse Harem Rock Star Romance. It is her debut novel, and she knocked it out of the park! I loved how she took tragedy and brought so many emotions to the surface, and used their biggest passion to put them back together again. They didn’t realize that they needed one another to bring these emotions to the surface, and in order to move on - they needed to face their anger, resentment and fear head on.

Taut Strings is an amazing debut novel! I couldn't believe how well the writing flowed and the relationships developed. This is a Rockstar RH which I have read a few of before and this managed to be unique in the plot while also delivering on what I love about both those genres. Adeline falls into a situation where she gets to record an album with a local band who made it big and needs someone with her skills. She has had a lot of things in life hold her back from her dreams, and she finally gets this chance but is reluctant to go head first. The chemistry between her and the band members is hot af and builds pretty naturally. The plot was great and kept me totally hooked the whole time I was reading. This is such a great book and I can wait for you all to read it!!
