Publisher's summary

“From here on out here’s how it’s going to go. I play. You play. Don’t hit on me. Don’t flirt with me. Understood?"

Handsome, charismatic, and blessed with a voice that brings thousands of fans to their knees, Trent Donovan is a walking cliché. But he has another thing coming if he thinks he can charm his way into my panties.

I don’t care if he’s rich and famous because I’m not here to bag a rock star. I’m here to pave my own way. To prove I belong center stage.

There’s just one problem.

The more time I spend on the road with the band, the more I realize Trent’s nothing like the arrogant playboy I expected. We share a love of music, and if I’m honest so much more.

I came on this tour to follow my dreams, but if I’m not careful he’s bound to lead them off track - right along with my heart.

The books in the Off Track Records series are interconnected stand-alone romance novels, and can be listened to in any order.

Brilliant Story & Listen🎧Awesome Rock Star Romance

I loved every word and every minute of this book. I am a huge fan of rock star romance books and I must say Kacey Shea rocked my socks off with this awesome novel. She is a gifted author, I enjoy her writing style and the story and characters she creates, they are realistic, likable and easy to relate to. The storylines grabbed my attention right from the start and captivated it straight to the end. I adored the two leads, Lexi and Trent, as well as his bandmates, Sean Willis and Austin Jones. Trent Donavan is the lead singer of “Three Ugly Guys” he is a player who loves all the women his rock star status brings his way. I loved the camaraderie amongst the bandmates, also loved his relationship with his Mom and a member of his anatomy too, LOL. When the band’s manager tells them they needed to bring in a permanent drummer and that it had to be a female, they come up with a compromise, to keep Iz on as the drummer for their upcoming tour and bring in a female as the opener. That is how Lexi Marx, a new solo artist is joined the tour. Once the boys met her and saw how gorgeous she was they made a pact and deemed her off limits. I loved how everything plays out in this book, Lexi’s determination to succeed on her own, how she and Trent click and start to bond and then learning more about each other, building trust and a friendship which is not easy for Lexi, because of her past and her issues. It was great to see her grow even more as a person by the end, also great to see Trent evolve and change his playboy ways. There is never a dull moment in this book, the story is beautifully plotted and flows naturally with plenty of drama, a bit of angst, some great humor and laugh out loud moments, plenty of heartfelt ones and some hot loving and a wonderful romance. Kacey Shea, thank you for this brilliant story, the emotional rollercoaster ride and for casting the perfect narrators to bring your story to life aurally.

Jason Clark and Lessa Lamb are talented narrators and voice artists. They do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to live giving each their own voice and personality. You could hear how much heart they put into their work as they capture and project the characters emotions and in their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen, special shout out to Lessa who rocks out some melodic vocals.

4.5 Captivating 'On Track' Stars!

What a great start to Shea's new Off Track Records series! This is a captivating, sexy, and emotional rock-star romance about the members of the rock band, Three Ugly Guys. They are headlining their first tour and need to bring on a female opening act to soften their image. Lexie is a talented singer/song writer. She doesn't want to be associated with her rock god, absentee father, wanting instead to make it on her own. She has seen the ugly side of the business and refuses to fall for a musician or be like her mother. Trent is the front man of 3UG and is a total man whore. Despite his carefree rock-star persona, he is thoughtful and caring for his family and those around him. Lexie is off limits to everyone but that doesn't stop the band from including her in their crazy pranks. They all have an easy rapport and have fun on the road together. But Lexie and Trent have a fiery chemistry that is explosive. No matter how hard they fight their attraction, it becomes impossible to deny. They really have fun together and Trent is so protective of her. But life on the road isn't easy and when other's start to interfere, along with Lexie's past resurfacing, will it all be too much to endure? Shea did a great job weaving a sensual and emotional story that gave me all the feels. It has heart and heat from the beginning to end and I loved it all, especially because of the wonderful narration by Jason Clarke and Lessa Lamb. They were such a great team, with complimenting voices. I loved their tone, inflection, and Lamb's singing was absolutely beautiful! They really embodied these characters and made me totally fall for Trent, Lexie, and all the band members. I really enjoyed this first book in the Off Track Records series and can't wait for more from 3UG!

A rocking rockstar romance!!

Love the beginning of this rockstar series by the fabulous Kacey Shea. Trent and Lexi ended up being everything I want in a super talented & super sexy couple!! I couldn't help but laugh at the antics of the side characters, especially Trent's mom. And cry at some of the difficult things Lexi had to battle throughout this book. I wasn't sure if I could get past Trent's man whoring ways in the beginning, but I was happy I stuck it out. Absolutely perfection bringing Lexi and Trent to life through narration by Lessa Lamb and Jason Clarke <3

Excellent start to the series

I absolutely loved this audio! The narrators were fantastic! I'd never listened to a book narrated by Lessa Lamb, but that will be changing for sure!

The storyline pulled me in and kept on the edge of my seat! I can't wait for the rest of this series to come out on audio!

Kacey Shea!! This is so good!!!

Lexie has been looking for her break into the music spotlight for years. She is a rocker and a songwriter just like her famous father (who she hates) was.

Three Ugly Guys, the band, needs a woman to soften their image, says their management. Trent, Austin, and Shawn (and their fill in drummer Iz) agree to a opening act who is a female. Lexie has just signed on the label and is their opening act.

They set out on tour and happenings have Lexie on the bands bus rather than the one she started out on for her safety. They all really like having her around… especially Trent. Lexie will not become a rockstars bed buddy…. She won’t be like her mother.

As the months go by, she and Trent become closer and they fall for one another… it’s not easy… her feelings about her father and how he treated her mother keep putting a road block up. When Lexie get news that, at first she’s indifferent to, but then makes her rethink things, Trent stays right at her side… he chooses her over the tour.. her heart is lost to him.

Kacey Shea always writes books I enjoy reading/listening to and this is no exception! It’s good!! Really good!

Great narration! Rockstar bad boy reformed

I will start by saying this is my first dive into the world and words of Kacey Shea. She was unknown to me and the opportunity to listen to an audiobook ARC came up and am glad it did. Rockstar romances done right are very few. This one has all the drama and angst that keeps the listener engaged. The leading male character loves women and he's all about fun and sex. The female lead has a very focused head on her shoulders, she is feisty and talented. Mix that all together and chemistry is bound to build up and be scorching when they give into their attraction. With this being said my favorite part of this experience was the narration itself. The casting was PERFECTION! Jason Clarke can deliver an alpha-hole like nobody's business. His deep tambor and cadence was just right. But the true star, in my opinion was Lessa Lamb. Wow!! Such a refreshing voice and an overall grade A performance. Her graceful tone and sound made it seem like she wasn't even performing. She sounds natural and I loved her chapters. Also... Her singing is BANANAS!! A true highlight of my listening experience.

A favorite for sure

I didn't think I could love the Off Track Records series anymore than I already do. I had previously binge read all of them in with little to no sleep and a desperate need for more after every single one. THAT was until Jason Clarke and Lessa Lamb brought two of my FAVORITE characters of the series to life. There couldn't have been a better pairing for this narration. I knew going in it was going to be good. I hoped I would get that "first reading/listening" feel even though I was familiar with what would happen. This narration did not disappoint it enhanced the experience. It was as though I was getting to experience for the first time all over again. All of the intense emotions Kacey Shea brought forth with the story were exquisitely executed through Clarke and Lamb and added a whole new layer to the listening experience. I may have had to rewind and relisten to certain parts of the book just to hear how amazing they performed their scenes. I am biting my nails waiting or the second book to release.

Music to my ears!

Hi! I am Kacey Shea, the author of Detour. I could not be more satisfied with this audiobook production and I'm so happy to bring this and the rest of my Off Track Records novels to audio.
Jason Clarke nails the humorous banter between bandmates as well as Trent's inner monologue with such an honest performance. His ability to create distinctive character voices and maintain them throughout is impressive. He's such a standout narrator.
Lessa Lamb is one of my new favorite female narrators. When I heard her for the first time last year, I instantly knew she's be perfect for this book. She delivers Lexi's confidence and snark, but also a vulnerability that is so touching. Lessa and Jason's narration styles compliment each other so well!
If you love enemies-to-lovers, steamy rom coms, and outstanding narration, then I think you're going to enjoy this book.

Excellent rock star romance!

I chose this book because the narrators are amazing! It did not take me long to get completely lost in the story. I like the dynamic of the band members. Trent is an awesome book boyfriend, even if he starts out as an oversexed rock star (nothing wrong with abundant sex with consenting adults), but when he meets Lexi the stars align and it's a beautiful thing! Lexi has baggage and protects herself by building walls. It takes someone like Trent to break down those walls. I really enjoyed the story, the characters, and the romance is hot stuff!

Narration is everything I would expect from my favorites. All of the emotion, the humor, and the evolving love story comes through in beautiful performances by both narrators!
