About this listen

Exodus End's legendary drummer Steve Aimes plays the role of a rock star better than anyone in the business. Since his divorce, he's embraced every rock-and-roll stereotype and uses those vices to keep women at a safe emotional distance, while keeping their physical distance recklessly close. He vowed years ago to never give any woman the power to break his heart again. He just has to keep playing the part, and never drop his guard, and stop obsessing over the keyboardist in their new opening act.

Roux Williams knows an opportunity like this only comes around once in a lifetime. Her band Baroquen has finally gotten their big break and are opening for Exodus End and Sinners - two powerhouses of rock - on the European leg of their world tour. She refuses to screw up this opportunity by getting involved with Steve Aimes, no matter how gorgeous, sexy, and surprisingly attentive he is. She can't deny her attraction to him - the man has the body of a god and the face of a model - but he's absolutely off limits.

When their worlds are rattled by a ploy staged to destroy them, Exodus End's infamous bad boy and Baroquen's not-yet-famous good girl must figure out a way to have it all and each other.

Exodus End, Exodus End!!

I want MORE, I want DARE like now lol but I am so glad we got Steve’s story.
This book was fantastic. I am a super fan lol I am invested, Sinners is one of my favorite series. Olivia can do Rock Stars and do them well.

Steve Aimes is a secret sweetheart! I love the relationship he has with his band and with his best friend.

When he falls, he falls hard, I love that his bandmates know this about him as well. His past relationships really kicked him in the teeth, so he is cautious and you can’t blame him either. But when he saw Roux his world is about to get turned upside down and I AM THERE FOR IT!

Roux’s background will hurt your heart and I like the response Steve has to it. <3 I love that even though Roux has had a rough start in life she was placed with the best foster home anyone could have asked for. Her sisters are all amazing.
These two are made for each other and the drama around them.
I want Dare’s book like now lol did I already say this because it is not less true. I loved the way this book ended. I am left smiling and wanting more the best way to end a book in my opinion.

Loved, loved the narration!!

There's more right?

So, I didn't read the books in order and started with Staged and initially I was kind of turned off based on Roux's ultra tragic background, it felt a little angsty to me but I stuck with it and I'm really glad I did. Roux definitely grew on me as she came out of her shell and her and Steve's relationship grew. Roux's band gave me high school nostalgia, reminding me of a combination of KISS and Evanescence. The narration was great, Teddy and Mackenzie are fantastic, I dislike hearing men voice women and women voice men but the two of them actually pulled the opposite gendered voices off pretty well. The things I really love about this book are Regan and her polyamorous relationship and how it doesn't come off as a some type of plot device, but rather they feel like real characters and I love the dynamic between her and her husbands? I think? I loved the friendship between Steve and Zach and that alternative sexuality is prevalent. But the thing I like best and the thing that surprised me the most is what happens to Steve and his sexual assault. Male sexual assault isn't something that I find in many books and the way his thoughts come off after it happens to him is refreshing, bas things happen to men too any men and it was nice to see that represented instead of the go-to with women. All in all, I loved this book and have already listened to it maybe four or five times. And I will be patiently waiting for a book on Max because he's such a harass and Dare just to see the type of person that shakes him up. There IS more right? Right?

A good addition to the series

Staged is the newest addition to the series. It continues the story of our favorite band prior to the end of the second book of the series. This story introduces the girl metal band Broken. And thus starts the wonderful way OC creates captivating and interesting characters with personality and quirks.

Overall, this story was good but because of the nature and sequence of the books it was a little bit predictable.
