Summary (from Goodreads):
Restaurant critic Aubrey Bordelon is never at a loss for words to
describe her meals in the fancy restaurants of New Orleans. But after her
magazine’s high-profile music reporter falls ill, she finds herself out of her
element and in a sea of screaming fans awaiting Wanderlust’s lead singer, Lex
Logan. The sound of his voice gives her goosebumps, and the stage presence of
the hard-bodied rock star takes her breath away. So when he pulls her onstage
for a sexy stunt, she knows she’s in real trouble.
Lex doesn’t want to pretend that the sparks on stage between him and Aubrey never happened, but it certainly makes the fact that she’s writing a story on his band all the more dangerous. The last thing he needs is some nosy reporter revealing their problems to the world. But the sexy Southern belle doesn’t give up easily, and soon he’s wondering if the best way to chase her off the story is to coax her into his bed…

Review:
First off: Who do I need to coerce into making this a
series? Because I needs me some more of dis.
Second: Who do I need to coerce to make this available in
print? Because I needs it in all the formats it has.
WANDERLUST is just … perfection in a book. From start to
finish, Roni Loren delivers in true Roni Loren fashion weaving a story with
humor, heat and everything in between. It’s one of those books I wanted to just
go on forever and ever because it’s so simply sweet and fun to read.
Aubrey is a fun heroine, but Lex is where it’s at. I
loved every version of Lex: hot rocker Lex, hot hero Lex, hot asshole Lex, hot –
you get where I’m going with this? There isn’t a scene where I don’t freaking
love Lex in all ways. But Aubrey is a good balance to him and he to her; he
challenges her when she shuts down and she grounds him when he gets a little
intense. They work. There’s a give
and take to their relationship that makes it believable.
This book has all the markings of the perfect springboard
into a new series: a compelling and colorful cast of secondary characters and
two main characters I need more snippets of in the future. So … Who do I have
to coerce?
