When the biggest rockstar in the world invited me into his home, there was one rule:

Don’t touch his daughter.

For a kid from the wrong side of the tracks with no future, the offer should have been a dream come true.

Classy new digs.

A fancy prep school.

Someone who cares what happens to me.

Except for that rule.

The rich pricks at my new school worship me. I couldn’t care less.

She's the one person who makes me feel worthwhile.

I want to save her from the turmoil eating up her picture-perfect world.

But she thinks I’m her rival: for her friends, her future, her father’s love.

I should keep my distance.

Avoid rescuing her from the assholes at school.

Definitely pretend I can’t see in her bedroom window from the pool house.

There are only two obsessions my life—music…and her.

All I have is my talent to set me free.

But my future will burn if I can’t stay away.

Rivals is an epic, angsty romance featuring two people from opposite sides of the track forced together by a forbidden love that could cost them everything. One-click today and find out if the damaged boy in the pool house can be the happily ever after she’s looking for!

Note: If you have previously read A Love Song for Liars, A Love Song for Rebels, and a Love Song for Dreamers, the new RIVALS ebook also contains an extended epilogue short story.

It’s been a while since I’ve read a Piper Lawson romance and to get THREE books in one ARC was such a treat. I loved this full circle journey from the teenage years to adulthood and experiencing Tyler and Annie’s love story.

Now this is not for the faint of heart with all the angst, the torture and heartbreak and the back and forth. It was a complete roller coaster and I loved every minute. From the enemies to lovers vibes as teens, the brooding sexy hero, the heroine with the confidence and heart of gold, and ever-lasting love, to the music that kept them going to follow their dreams and desires.

This book had me at the blurb’s beginning…

When the biggest rockstar in the world invited me into his home, there was one rule:

Don’t touch his daughter. 

…but it was really so much more than the typical rockstar romance, the typical be careful dating the daughter… this was an epic love story about the kid with the humble beginnings chasing his dreams of music to finding the love of a lifetime in the girl who always saw who he was underneath it all, the couple who always fought for each other because love was everything when they had each other.

I loved every second of every page and look forward to reading more from this author.
