Heart Beats: a small town, rock star romance (Hope Harbor) Kindle Edition

by Karla Doyle (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 147 ratings

Pulling a fan onstage during the concert is just part of the show, until the jaded rock star meets the muse he wasn’t looking for…

JAGGER
The media calls me “Jaded Jagger” and they’re not wrong. I wasn’t just a rising star, I was the rock industry’s sunshine from the moment I debuted, and that instant mega-stardom put me on center stage, 24/7. Money, fame, women… Anything I want is mine for the taking, and I’ve taken plenty. It’s all disposable. Things stop mattering when you have the world at your feet. When all you have to do is show up, and whatever you want is automatically yours.

That’s how I assume it’ll be when I pull a gorgeous brunette onstage during a concert. It’s part of the gig. The crowd loves it, and the female fans I choose are always very grateful after the show. They don’t call it a backstage pass for nothing.

Only…something’s different tonight. Every cell in my being lights up the instant I take the brunette’s hand. When I sing my chart-topping rock ballad to her, the words have meaning. She’s different. Special. Important. I don’t know how, but I know. There’s a connection. I don’t just want to bury myself in Maria’s hot body, I want to lose myself in her.

When the music ends, she disappears into the crowd instead of going backstage. But our song isn’t over. I didn’t believe in muses–or love at first sight–until this woman. Now that I’ve found her, I’m not letting her get away.

* an instalove romance with a guaranteed Happily Ever After *

    I love adding fun and spicy novellas to my TBR. I stumbled across Karla Doyle’s work through another fav author and I am so grateful! This story kept me engaged and the characters were well developed for such a short story. In fact, she tells a lot of story in a short book. Read Jagger and Maria’s insta love story. You won’t regret it. Definitely a fresh storyline. Love it❤️

    The author has given us a wonderful story that pulls us into the lives of Jagger/Marshall and Maria and does not let go. The story keeps us turning the pages with instant connection, opposites attraction and love.

    I haven't enjoyed a book so much in a long while. This was a reminder that I LOVE a good rockstar romance.

    Add in that Maria was so adorably awkward and a freakin' music genius and I was hooked.

    Marshall aka Jagger was HOT and brilliant in his own right, but toss in that he had a total soft spot for Maria and fell hard and fast...SWOON.

    Now I plan to catch up on the connecting books and hope that Karla writes more rocker romances.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great rockstar romance!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2022

    As a huge fan of rockstar romance, I like them all- long, short, angsty, low angst, dirty and clean, and this rockstar novella is definitely one of my favorites. The hugely famous rockstar meets and falls In Love with a regular woman, but no woman is regular when you love her right? The story flowed so well and you really got to know the main characters for the length. The writing was great and I did not notice any spelling, grammatical errors . Several swoony moments like when Jagger tells Maria his real name! I wish the story was longer not because the book was missing something but because I was enjoying it so much!

    I liked Maria and her bluntness. Jagger wasn’t bad but I personally didn’t like him. He wasn’t too interesting to read about

    Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2022
    Jagger Marsh seems to have it all. A front man for a popular rock band since the age of 17, millions of fans, adored and wanted by men and women but what he never truly found was the one. He has lived his life on a stage in front of the public and not once has he felt the connection, love and unconditional care and support. That is until he locks eyes with the loveliest woman he has ever come across. He pulls her up on stage and sings to her and even though he has done this thousands of times before this one is so much better and heartfelt.
    Maria is a music teacher and proficient in many instruments. A known homebody it took her sister Mya dragging her to a concert to finally get her out of the house and into the world. Little did she know that she would catch the eye of a handsome and charismatic front man. The connection is instant, but Maria thinks she is just another one of his quests and leaves before the concert is over. Little did she know that this rocker is more than persistent. He shows up in her hometown and that is when the true connection is made.
    Maria and Jagger are sweet, sexy, emotional and even though it is a short story it truly packs a punch!

    Loved the insta romance on Jagger’s side and Maria running far and fast. Enjoyed the connection and the sweetness of this couple. A cute quick read with a small town girl and the big popular rock star.

    The world created in this book couldn’t be described as anything other than perfection! Jagger and Maria are my new favorite couple and I adored them! This romance was beautiful right from the start and just kept getting better!

    Jagger and Maria meet when he pulls her onstage during a concert. This was a usual occurrence at his concerts but the chemistry between then was anything but usual. Right away the banter and connection was beautiful and fun! She thinks she’s a boring, awkward, small town girl. He thinks she’s his muse, his woman, his everything. He’s even willing to travel to her hometown to show her.

    What follows is a truly beautiful story. There will be drama but definitely not in the way that I expected. There is a beautiful heartfelt connection that can’t be denied. He will just have to convince her that she’s his destination and not his stopover (favorite line from the book!!!). I adored the ending of this book as well although I was so in love with this couple I didn’t want their story to end!! This book is a MUST READ so get this one today!
