Fabulous Story & Narration🎧 Profound & Heartfelt!

I am a huge fan of the “Rockstar” romance trope and love all kinds of rock stars, from the angsty, dark and dirty ones to the sweet and caring ones, and this book fits the bill by falling somewhere in between with some swoon worthy rock stars who have a lot of heart and personality. Anna Edwards is a gifted author with a wonderful writing style, I am not sure how and I am embarrassed to admit this, but this is my first book by her, but it definitely will not be my last, I am looking forward to checking out more of her work. The story she created is original, with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. Her characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are easy to fall for and care about too. Tate Gordon, the lead singer of Saving Tate and with his bandmates and close friends, Liam, Austin and Cameron, are about to head out on their first world tour. Their record company thought it would be a great idea for them to have their own publicist go out on tour with them, maintain a positive image for the public and to keep them out of trouble. Zoey Danson is up and coming in the record industry and when offered the job to go on tour with the band, she knew it was a great opportunity, one that can make her career excel. Except Zoey has a lot of home issues and skeletons in her closet, her home life is not the best but she is also in need of the funds the new position would bring. She accepts the job and figures out a way to manage things on the home front while away. Hearing this new development did not exactly thrill the band, having to have her on their bus to babysit them and keep them in line. But when the band meets her, all but Tate is on board with her touring with them and staying on their bus. Tate does not hide his dislike for her, but she will let no one ruin this chance to prove herself and she gives back whatever he doles out. Tate recognizes something in her, something he knows deeply, darkness and hurt, he also feels a connection and is drawn to her. I loved how Zoey handled the band from the moment they first met and how she handled Tate too. She felt that intense attraction to him and when he warmed up to her, there was definitely music between them. He can see she is dealing with something, but he hides his own inner demons until he is ready to share. I loved how everything played out in the book, it is a beautifully plotted the story with plenty of drama, heartfelt emotions, a touch of angst, some fun times and some hot loving and romance. Anna Edwards, thank you for this great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, Anna Edwards could not have chosen a better cast to bring her characters and story to life. Allie Martina and Gideon Frost are superbly talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that fit the character’s persona, were believable in every role they played and sounding just as I pictured the characters would sound. Allie Martina took Zoey’s role and ran with it and made it her own, she grasped her every emotion and had you feeling every single one. Gideon Frost did the same for Tate, both were great performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances an already great story to another level. Thank you for another amazing listen, you absolutely rocked it!!

So easy to fall for this one!

Tate's band is on the verge of greatness, and to keep them on track, a publicist is hired to babysit them. Yes, you heard that right, Zoey is going on tour with the band to keep them in line, doing something stupid and derailing their success. She is wary about going, not because she can't handle the job, but because her mom needs her. But the money will help, and the experience will be priceless. Tate doesn't want a babysitter, but there is something special about this girl. The other band members, Austin, Liam and Cameron have welcomed her in the fold, and while Tate is not happy about her coming, there is something about her that is special. And he feels a protectiveness when she is around. Each carries their own baggage, and it is enough to keep them both down. There is something in the air though and with the band's success, the support of the guys and each other, we can only hope they can find their happiness. Tate is an interesting character, not your typical front man, and his pain is real. Zoey is a tough one, supporting her mom despite the barriers that are constantly thrown up. Low angst, real emotion, humorous moments and a growing love keep this story flowing. Love my first experience with Anna Edwards and will watching for more.

Gideon Frost and Allie Martina tell us this story and they are fabulous. Frost voices Tate with the confidence of a rock star, and he adds his a warmth for Zoey and the pain when he is thinking of his past. Martina is fabulous as Zoey. Desperate of times, funny, loving and understanding all are emulated in her character. Loved this story and they way these two told it.

Great story!💜

This story was an interesting combination of charming and emotional. It was a whirlwind romance with a backdrop of despair, addiction & depression. There was some family drama but chemistry between then main characters as well the band members was incredibly fun & sexy. I laughed and cried. From the moment I met the band, I knew they each needed their own story. The narration was fantastic. Both performances were very good.
This is book 1 with an HEA and can be read as a standalone.
I recommend this book.

Sing

This is the first book in the Saving Tate series. This is a Rockstar/tour publicist trope. Both main characters suffered from trauma caused by addiction. This book also has a touch of Pretty Woman in it. I really loved this book. Can’t eat for the next book in the series. Allie Martina and Gideon Frost did an incredible job narrating this book.

I feel cheated…

I feel cheated for paying one credit. The story was good but very short. The plot is fast and the main characters never really form some kind of friendship/relationship. The H had sex with groupies and then sex with the h. It’s kinda gross. If you want to listen to this one, I would recommend to wait until it’s on sale or free. Otherwise don’t waste your credit or money by paying full price.

The narrators did a great job reading this book. It was a quick listen.

Sing is book one in the Saving Tate Series. I felt like the story went by too fast in the sense that things were left out. For example, Tate all of a sudden stopped being a playboy and Zoey didn't question it. Maybe it's because it was a lighter story, but there wasn't a ton of conflict except for Zoey's mom. (Lighter, but also read triggers: suicide attempt, drug use, death)

If you want an instalove feel then this book is for you. The main characters are great and the other band members seem like wonderful people to be friends with. Their stories are being told in future books.

Rock Star Romance

Anna Edwards is a new to me author. This was a good book. I liked that the story explored all of the band members. Of course it focused on Tate since this is his story. Zoey is a publicist for music manager. Zoey and Tate grow closer as they discover more of each other's troubled past.
Deals with alcohol and drug addictions.

Narrators did a great job brining the characters to life.

This was a ARC and this is my honest opinion.

Tate is also dealing with his own demons. Being 15 years old and walking in on your dead sister, who died at a heroin overdose. You will have to listen to the audiobook to find out the rest. The narration and storyline was good.

Rock Star romance with a good story and great spice

Overall this was a very enjoyable rock star romance, with enough drama and angst to keep it interesting but not so much that it was over the top. When Zoey joins the band Saving Tate on their tour as their PR manager, Tate is immediately against the idea, especially that she’ll be riding on their bus. His immediate attraction to her will only be a distraction, he’s convinced. But his band overrules him, and when Zoey connects with all the band members except Tate, it’s only a matter of time before their chemistry wins the battle.

Overall, this wasn’t unpredictable. It was interesting that Zoey didn’t seem to register the potential career implications of hooking up with the lead singer of the band she’s PR manager for, or rather, it seemed a non-issue until after the fact. And the band even had very little issue with Tate and Zoey being together, having seen their connection and generally happy for Tate to find some happiness. Zoey’s difficult home situation, of course, does come back up to bite them, but Tate, and in turn the band’s, reaction was actually really great, and worked really well for the story.

Ultimately, Zoey and Tate have a great relationship arc, and the story is a nice kick off for a series of rock star romances for the rest of the band. This books does a good job of getting us familiar with all the band members, not just Tate, which makes you want to get all their stories in turn.

The audiobook is great, with dual narration by Allie Martina and Gideon Frost, two fantastic narrators who really know how to nail a character and pull out their emotions.
