FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Forever Write PR in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
Capturing The Heart of The Rock Star by Nomi Summers was a sweet story. I did find that I was able to predict what was going to happen but with these types of books, it is rare that I don’t have it all figured out right from the start. I fell in love with Avery right from the start and I also felt bad for her because of everything she had to deal with when it came to running the family business. This is the first book that this author wrote and I can’t wait to read more by her in the future. This book was a quick read for me and I loved that I was able to pick up this up and read it in a few days because it gave me a break from everything that is going on in the real world. I was amazed that this is the first book by this author because it was well written and it seemed like she had been writing books forever. If you are looking for a sweet chick-lit book to read this fall I would give this one a shot and I don’t think you will let down.

Shane walked Avery to the parking lot, holding her hand the entire way, long after the group could no longer see them. When they reached the car, he turned to her and said, “Thank you for today. I had fun with you.”
“Yeah, me too.” She was starting to soften, and knew she had to pull herself together. “Tomorrow it’s back to business as usual. No need to keep up the fake relationship after everyone leaves.”
“Unless you wanted to?” he asked with a hopeful grin.
“There’s no use in pretending to be something we’re not unless it evolves to that. Let’s just take it one day at a time and see where this takes us.”
“Well then, I’ll see you in the morning, boss. I’ll be ready for you to put me to work.”
“See you then,” Avery turned and began to open the door to her car, but she felt Shane push it shut. As she turned to face him to see what he was doing, he leaned in and pinned her gently against the car with his body. One hand on the door, he leaned in as if he were going to kiss her. With his other hand, he brushed his thumb along her bottom lip.
“What are you doing?” she tried to whisper, but her voice cracked.
“I’ve been dying to kiss you, Ave.” His voice was low, his breath warm against her cheek, as he leaned in to whisper in her ear, “Ever since I got here, I’ve wanted nothing more than to feel your lips on mine.”
“Shane …” she started, but her voice trailed off. Her legs were getting weaker and weaker. She was running out of fight with this man.
“Just one kiss, Avery,” he whispered softly. “And then we’ll know.”
Her eyes fell to his lips, so close to her own, and she began to close her eyes. She did want the kiss, more than anything. But she didn’t want her heart to break all over again. She wanted to be certain this could work before they took it too far. She straightened her back, placing a hand on his chest to create space between them. “I already know, Shane.”
Before he could say anything more, she leaned forward and dusted a kiss to his cheek. She turned and opened the car door, whispering a brief goodbye before she got in and backed out of her parking spot, leaving Shane alone to watch her tail lights disappear in the distance.
