Diana's Reviews! Back-Up (Back-Up Series, #1) by A.M. Madden


THERE'S A NEW ROCK STAR IN TOWN AND HIS NAME IS JACK LAIR...



Leila Marino’s biggest dream is to become a rock star. A lucky opportunity has her auditioning with an up & coming rock band named Devil’s Lair. The band hires Leila as their back-up singer, signing her up for months in the studio and touring on the road with the sexy bunch. 


Jack is the quintessential rock star…gorgeous…sexy…a walking orgasm. Jack Lair is the lead singer of Devil’s Lair and his dreams are becoming reality as his band climbs the ladder of success. He’s living the perfect life, and enjoying every minute of it. With a steady stream of sexual conquests that satisfies his raging libido, he thinks he has all he needs in life…until Leila enters it. 

Jack is not prepared for the sudden pull he feels towards Leila, and struggles daily to deny his attraction is anything more. Leila finds falling for her new boss is constant torment. Both convince themselves friendship is their only option. 

An intimate moment causes their willpower to collapse, and their erotic love affair to begin. Finding love was a bonus that neither Jack nor Leila anticipated. As they begin their tour together professionally and personally, life couldn’t be any better for the couple. Until a mistake from Jack’s past threatens their new relationship, and their perfect future together.


Warning: This book is meant for mature readers who are 18+. It contains explicit language, and graphic sexual content.


Back-Up is the first installment in the Back-Up series written by A.M. Madden and a must-read for those who love a hot lead singer.


When Leila Marino hears that her favorite band, Devil’s Lair, is searching for a back-up singer, she doesn’t miss the opportunity to audition and she’s quickly accepted because her voice is the perfect match for what the band was looking for. She is quickly drawn into a world she has dreamed of since she was a little girl. Besides that, there’s a strong chemistry going on between her and the lead singer.

Jack lives the perfect life… or so he thinks. He’s surrounded by beautiful women willing to share his bed every night and his band is about to become famous now that they have included Leila and are starting their tour. He hasn’t been committed to a girl since high school and he isn’t planning on a relationship now, with all the important events that are going to make his dream come true.

Jack may appear carefree and hard-headed, but, in reality, he has a great capacity of loving someone and being loyal. Both him and Leila are determined to accomplish their goals in spite of their feelings. There’s always the chance that the passion they share will interfere with their work and neither is willing to take any chances. 

One thing that I appreciated was that the secondary characters were equally involved and the author didn’t leave out any important details. Also, nothing seems too rushed or too slow and the relationship between the main characters develops as it should.

Back –Up is the best start for this series because romance and humor and an unexpected twist blend into an amazing story that will keep you glued to the pages of the book from beginning to end. I cannot wait to read the next volume!
