Blurb: Rock singer, Ash Ivers, and country music star, Jackson Abrams, have intense passion that brings them together, but will they be able to overcome all their differences when Jackson’s career is threatened?
Ash Ivers says and does what he wants, and with being the lead singer of the world famous rock band, From Ashes, he gets away with both. Three years ago, his mouth got the better of him, and he started a media feud with county music star, Jackson Abrams. When they’re both booked to play a charity concert, he sees his chance to finally confront Jackson in person. Though, he’s uncertain if his anger will hold against his attraction to the singing cowboy.
Jackson Abrams is the darling of country music. He’s polite, charming, handsome…and he has a secret that he fears could jeopardize his career. When it comes to the cocky rock star, Ash Ivers, he’s infuriated and intrigued by him. He wants their feuding to stop, but he also doesn’t want to lose the attention it gives him from Ash.
As Ash and Jackson meet, the heat of anger turns to passion. But when Jackson’s world starts crumbling around him, will their differences make them stronger, or drive them apart?

Review: At first I thought this might be one of those really angsty roller coaster romances, but it isn’t. It’s actually a rather sweet love affair be tween a good ol’ country boy and a punk rockin’ lead singing, out and proud firecracker. The rock world where Ash excels, accepts his homosexuality, but Jackson Abrams’ country music genre isn’t as tolerant, and coming out for Ash could ruin his career. Through the trials and tribulations of coming out, or being forced Ash stays by Jackson’s side, but will their efforts, be enough to keep them together? Can the city mouse and the country mouse make a home and a career together? Read this sweet and hot story to find out!
