This is another Ginger masterpiece! I LOVE the way she writes imperfect characters that you can’t help but fall in love with.
Dustin is one of those. He’s so tortured, but you can’t help but love him. I love him. I love Hannah. She’s strong, she’s sassy, she’s tough.
I’m not a massive fan of Jason, although he does redeem himself, and Hannah’s dad confuses me a little, but I’m so looking forward to seeing how he handles things in the later books.
This book will break your heart. It’s fast, it’s furious, but do yourself a favour and read it once the others are out! I’m in desperate need of the next one! 📖📖📖📖📔

“An adrenaline rush of a romance that made my heart race and my soul shake. So HEADY. So HEART-POUNDING. So HEARTFELT. So YES!!!” – Karen, Bookalicious Babes Blog
Shift
Dustin Bridges has always had two things he could count on—his fearless instincts behind the wheel and the support of his two best friends, Tommy and Hannah Judge.
Dustin brought the speed.
Tommy, the brains.
And Hannah . . . she was the glue that held everyone together.
Together, they were unstoppable.
From the dirt tracks of their youth to the late-night drag races under a desert moon as teens, the Judge siblings pushed and watched in awe as their friend edged closer to his dream. Always racing, always running. That was Dustin’s gift and curse. And while his life at home was unbearable, his world with the Judges always seemed perfect.
Growing up with people makes for a special bond. But sometimes life has a way of testing just how strong a relationship is. And falling in love with one of your best friends, not to mention your other best friend’s sister? Well, that can be the toughest test of all.
Heartbreak doesn’t know what it’s up against, though, because when there is a prize to be won, nobody bets against Dustin Bridges.

Excerpt
Saint Prologue
Everyone has a story, and when you die, your memories cling to the minds of the people you leave behind, scripted in permanent ink. They can go back and visit their favorite chapters when they need comfort, or simply skip over the scenes they want to forget, but what they can’t do, is be removed. Even if you tear a page from a well-written book, there will always be telltale signs something was there. There you lie, embedded in their minds forever, so essentially you’ll live forever, right? I didn’t think much about this until I met him. The day that I would die, I mean. Would I leave behind a novella, or would it be a nine-book series that would need your undivided attention? You see, I’ve gazed into the eyes of death twice in my life, and both times began at the entrance of his soul. His stare was always heavy and roguish, but he lit a match inside my body that would burn a lifetime after I’m gone. I wasn’t sure what I felt the first time his cold, corpse-like skin sailed over mine, but I remember it was the exact day that I knew I would never be the same. I was touched by the Devil; Heaven would never want me now. Not that Heaven was where I belonged either, though I’m sure he thought so. Tortured souls still weep; they tear themselves apart in dark corners where no one can see. Brantley is just that—tortured—though he doesn’t conceal it. He wears his darkness like a souvenir, proud and indifferent. I knew Brantley from the inside out, and I say that literally. I was familiar with the notes that his blood left in my mouth well after I had swallowed it. And I think that will haunt me more than anything. It will haunt me so much more than this day. The day my book hit the final page.

Wreck and Burn
(Books 2 and 3) July Releases
Wreck continues Dustin and Hannah’s story four years later, and book 3, Burn, completes their love story in their mid 20s.
I haven’t read a rockstar romance in a while, but this was a good one.
I love Jax. He’s a great character and I loved seeing inside his head.
Sidney was a little less likeable, especially at the end of the book, but I like how career driven she is.
I would’ve liked to have seen more of her father, especially as he’s such a big motivating factor, as well as giving more insight into Sidney’s motivations.
Still, this was a good, angsty, story. I definitely recommend giving it a go.📖📖📖📖
Breaking: the elusive @JaxRyder lead singer of @Glasshouse spotted getting cozy with a mystery brunette. Off the market?
Smart, driven, and always in control, Sidney King feels unstoppable. It’s her last semester of college and she isn’t letting anything get in the way of landing her dream job. Especially not the super hot, soon-to-be world famous rockstar she’s been forced to study with….No, definitely not him. No way.
Jax Rider is flying high. His chart-topping rock band is about to go off on their first major tour. Only one semester stands between him and the sweet freedom of the stage. The last thing he expects is the feisty brunette who crashes into his life.
They both have one rule: no attachments. Not when all their dreams are about to come true. This is strictly business. They’re study partners and nothing more. THE STUDY DATE is book #1 in the GLASSHOUSE SERIES
