Rocked is a about a sweet romance and a rock star band, and how they make it big.

Deacon is one of those really big guys that look as ferocious as a grizzly bear but then you realize once you meet them that they're as cuddly as a teddy bear. He is super sweet, and wasn't planning on falling in love, but he doesn't try to run away once he knows what he has.

Harper is determined. She just got out of college and is working for the food company that goes on tour with bands. It's a leg into the business, though she already knew the touring business due to her roadie parents. Now all she wants is to have her own food touring group and she is determined to get it. Falling in love is not in the plan, especially with a rising rock star. Harper has been screwed over by one too many of those.

Together Deacon and Harper find love, even though its not a good time for either of them. Deacon is looking to get signed with his band, and Harper is planning on touring all over the country with the food company until she can get her own company. Their love is strong, but will it survive?

I loved Deacon. I can say that right up. He was such a sweet guy. Harper, on the other hand, was too focused on the future and not on the life she was currently living. Yes, in the end it all works out, but still. She was thinking so far ahead of herself she almost lost what was right in front of her.

The writing was well done and the story flowed nicely. I think I just didn't really like Harper all that much.

Definitely worth reading, if only to meet Deacon. But really, it was just so sweet.

Synopsis:

Love definitely wasn't on the setlist.Opening for their idols on their first tour, Oblivion is living the dream. Mostly. Frustrated at being shoved out of his mediator role by their new manager, Deacon McCoy loses himself in brutal workouts. He only comes up for air long enough to refuel—and to tease the deliciously cute chef who makes him crave a lot more than what she's offering on her serving plate.

As the child of roadie parents, Harper Pruitt has heard every pickup line twice. To her, musicians are one step above the scraps on her cutting board. All she wants is to get enough experience to run her own catering company, but Deacon and his bottomless stomach are too tempting to resist. He's far from the typical rock star and before long, she finds herself experimenting with him, inside and out of the kitchen.

Apron - and panties - optional.

When Harper sees that Deacon’s dream band with his best friends may be turning into a nightmare, she can't walk away. Deacon's so much more than just a peacemaker and the man behind the bass. But she has her own dreams to chase...even if she's starting to think what she's building with him might be the biggest one of all.
