Sager Reed, the strong and silent bassist of the rock band Tempest, is well acquainted with loss. The thoughtful artist’s own tattoos only hint at his turbulent youth. He buries his guilt about it deeply within his troubled heart.
Melinda T. Belle, the daughter of a dysfunctional rock legend, as a rule avoids emotional entanglement. In fact, she has turned her back on nearly everyone and everything she has ever known. Now she is alone, trying desperately to find fulfillment in the one dream she has left, competitive skiing.
CAN SAGER OVERCOME HIS DARK PAST AND FINALLY BELIEVE THAT HE IS WORTHY OF HER LOVE?
WILL MELINDA REALIZE TOO LATE THAT HE IS THE ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS?

REVIEW
Rating: ☆☆☆☆

Sager and King are part of the Tempest when they were given a months hiatus to decompress. Melinda has been staying at the Whistler during the week for Training for the Freestyle Ski Team and during the weekend she is back in the city working for Black Cat Records to pay for the privilege. Melinda is unwilling to let anyone close again. When she goes home her father talks her into performing and she agrees to one song. April tries to talk to her and releases that it was a bad idea. Sager and Melinda see each other again and they start to talk and they agree that they are just going to be friends.

Sager had a rough childhood, he has anger issues. He likes to draw, he was adopted by the Acenado family, Bassist of Tempest. Jauquin is known as King. Sought Sager out when they were younger. Family adopted Sager, Member of Tempest. Melinda is on Canada's National Freestyle Ski Team, is known as Blue Belle. She is new to the team. She has Demons. Parker is part of the Freestyle Ski team. Bryan is the Lead guitarist for tempest. Dizzy Lowell is Rhythm guitarist for Tempest, April's boyfriend. Mary Timmons is the CEO of Black Cat Records, she always gets what she wants. Kathrine's Melinda's personal trainer, hired by Mary. Warren is the lead singer of Tempest. 

This is the Fifth book in the Tempest series. It took me a while to get into this story but once I did I was drawn in and found it hard to put down.



EXCERPT


“Let it go, Bluebelle,” I chastised myself aloud as I passed the tower with the unloading sign. Lifting the bar, I slid forward at the designated area, pointed the tips of my skis upward and leaned slightly forward as soon as my skis were completely on the ground. I stood, balanced and glided away with the chair providing the push.  I was alone once I reached the turn to the snow cross course. I paused to take in a few mouthfuls of crisp clear high altitude air as I stared out at the amazing view. Top of the mountain. My favorite place to put things into perspective. The world spread out before me, an endless stretch of blue sky and grey mountains. The clouds below looked like a river of puffy cotton balls between snowcapped peaks. The early morning rays transformed last night’s snow into a carpet of glistening crystal.
Don’t think about Sager. Don’t think about the past, and whatever you do don’t you dare feel sorry for yourself. You got by on your own before April, before Tempest, before…him. You can do it again. It’s better this way. Safer. A heart can only take so much battering around before it runs out of reasons to keep beating.
