RIPPED - The Price of Loyalty: Everhide Rockstar Romance Series Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781923653030)

Gemma Lonsdale has one rule: never fall for a bandmate.

As the lead guitarist of Everhide, the chart-topping rock band that conquered the world, Gemma lives for the music-and only trusts her two bandmates, Kyle and Hunter. After a brutal betrayal nearly shattered her, love is the last thing she's willing to chance. But when Hunter-her band's charismatic, playboy guitarist-makes the first move, she risks everything: her heart, their friendship, and the one connection she's never dared to gamble... Kyle McIntyre.

Kyle, the quiet, brooding bassist, has loved Gemma since high school. When he finally finds the courage to tell her how he feels, it's too late-she's dating his best friend. Heartbroken, he swallows the truth and somehow stays loyal, steady, and silent-watching the woman he loves fall for someone else.

But when Gemma's world implodes and the cracks in their band begin to show, she turns to the one person who's always caught her when she falls. As jealousy flares and secrets unravel, Gemma must confront the truth she's buried for too long. Can she risk everything-their bond, their band, the only family they've ever known-for a love that's waited in the wings far too long?

He fell first. She loved his best friend. But in the end, love finds a way.

An emotional rockstar romance of missed opportunities, found family, and a love that survives the spotlight. If you crave possessive yet tender heroes, raw and resilient heroines, and a slow-burn romance with all the feels, this is your next obsession. Unrequited love. Steamy sizzle. Slow burn soulmates.
