About MORE THAN A FEELING:

From the award-winning author of TAKE ME HOME TONIGHT comes the final story in her red-hot Rock Star Romance series, about a loner rocker finding his perfect duet.

When Cooper Hood left Snowberry, Montana ten years ago, he swore he’d never go back to the town that painted him with the same brush as his addict mother. But right in the middle of his band’s national tour he gets a call to come home: his mom’s got a whopper of a secret to reveal.

Daisy Charbonneau’s in trouble. The talent she hired for her resort’s annual Huckleberry Festival just bailed on her, and she’s desperate to find a replacement act. Luck turns her way when she discovers her high school crush is back in town—and he happens to be a rock star.

As they work together, a crush deepens into so much more, but who falls in love in two weeks?

Especially when Cooper’s never coming back to town, and Daisy’s never going to leave it.

I just can’t get enough of rock star romances and Erika Kelly really outdid herself with More Than A Feeling. While this book was every bit as sexy and provocative as I’ve come to expect from this author, this was a feel good book about letting go of the past, embracing the new, and admitting that it is okay to let people into your life and not everyone will let you down. Emotional, but not on a curl up in a ball and cry level, this book will make you think back and take a look at the people who influenced your life good or bad and realize that sometimes even the smallest encounter can change your life. I adored these characters and their fast and furious love connection, but more than that I loved the sense of community, the unexpected bonds, and the triumph of good over evil (well, maybe not evil but underhanded for sure). More Than A Feeling was a jam packed story with multiple storylines going on, but never one did the romance get lost in the shuffle something I truly appreciated.

On a two week break during a tour, Cooper Black heads back to his Montana hometown to deal with an issue concerning him mother, what he doesn’t expect is to end up helping the girl he always wanted but knew he wasn’t good enough for, Daisy Charbonneau, or for his father’s identity to be revealed and gain an entire family he isn’t sure he wants.

There was so much I loved about this book including the fact that Cooper and Daisy both had unrequited crushes on one another during high school, that seeing each other ten years later hasn’t changed those feeling, in fact they are only intensified. That Cooper soon realizes that he’s acting very unlike himself where she is concerned and even though Daisy knows she wants the kind of life Cooper can’t give her she plans to take every minute she can get with him. That despite the fact Cooper feels like an outcast and hate the town he feels chewed him up and spit him out, he gets involved in a big project that is near and dear to Daisy’s heart and in doing so he beings to see things in a whole different light. Because of the history they had together, their relationship was intense from the start and the feeling grew for them rapidly even though they didn’t want to admit it.

I loved that they were so comfortable with one another from the start that Cooper didn’t have to hide his past because Daisy knew it all. While music is what brought them together as teens, it would eventually tear them apart as well. I appreciated that these two had some hard choices to make, that compromise was necessary, but that ultimately they both realized they needed each other as much as they needed air.
While Cooper’s band mates make a few cameo appearances for the most part this book was about Cooper and Daisy and the wonderful people who have always been there for Daisy and become just as important in Cooper’s world as well.

I had such a satisfied feeling when I finished this book, like everything was right in the world and that my friends is when I know I’ve read a fantastic story, because no matter what is going on around me or in my life the author can take me out of that and put me in a completely different place. Erika Kelly, you FREAKIN’ ROCK!

Excerpt

A cool breeze washed over him, teasing gooseflesh along his arms. Cooper awakened to find himself in a distinctly feminine bedroom.

Beside the ottoman lay a pair of worn, red cowboy boots—one tipped over. Running a hand lazily over his chest, he thought of Daisy in that flared skirt, her bare legs. Damn. He’d licked those thighs last night, held her foot in his palm as he’d slid into her, all that dark hair spilled across her sheet.

A sting of awareness sped through him. I slept with Daisy Charbonneau. Twice. The first time almost hadn’t counted because he’d been as frenzied as a teenage boy losing his virginity. But the second time…his body tingled at the memory…the second time he’d given his hands the run of that luscious body.

Given the nature of his life on the road and living in his bass player’s farmhouse, he didn’t spend the night with women. He didn’t wake up in the morning and lounge around, didn’t linger with quiet conversation.

So waking up in Daisy’s bed, smelling her vanilla and honey scent in the sheets and on his skin, made his body hum. He’d never—not once—considered turning his fantasy of being with her into reality.

But he had. He almost couldn’t believe it, but it was better than anything he’d ever imagined.

With a jolt he remembered it was Monday. Time to launch their event. They needed to hit Town Hall as soon as the doors opened for business so Daisy could file her revised permitting paperwork.

He swiped his black boxers off the floor—smiling at the memory of Daisy yanking them off his hips last night—and hit the bathroom. When he finished, he followed the aroma of coffee into the kitchen to find Daisy in her pajama shorts, bare feet, and a flimsy cardigan with overlong sleeves. As she scraped a knife across toast, he stood back to watch her hair shimmy with the exertion.

She must’ve sensed him because she glanced over her shoulder. Her jaw slackened, the knife lowered, and she gaped at his chest as he approached.

No one made him feel as robustly masculine as Daisy. Her gaze took a slow climb down to his dick, where the blood had already begun to pool, and then back up to his pecs, higher still to snag on his mouth. When she reached his eyes, a sheepish smile bloomed, and she turned back to her toast. “Morning.”

He came up behind her, wrapped his arms around her waist, and nuzzled her neck. “Morning.” Her slightly damp hair and fresh, clean scent told him she’d already showered. Her head tilted back, exposing her neck, and he pressed his mouth to the fluttering pulse point.

Her arms went up and around his neck, holding him to her, and she lifted her mouth to greet his. Kissing him, she turned in his arms until their chests were pressed together.
