Karolyn James Spotlight








All Access Book Discription

Jess is caught off guard when a sexy stranger buys her a cup of coffee and asks her to sit with him. He's mysterious, nice, and even though he says the right things at the right time, Jess can sense that there's something hidden about him.
*
As Johnnie sits across from the beautiful woman, he can't believe she doesn't recognize him. Everyone does. It comes with the territory when you're the lead singer of one of the hottest bands in the world, Chasing Cross. With one more show to go before taking a small break in touring, it feels like luck is on Johnnie's side. That is, if he can find a way to tell Jess who he is, without scaring her off.

After her best friend begs her to come to a concert, Jess finds herself standing in the middle of a crowd. The lights are off, music begins, and the crowd erupts in cheers. She doesn't know much about the band, but that's all about to change. When the lights come on, Jess can't believe her eyes. The lead singer of the band is the man from the café.
*
Plucked from the crowd during the show, Jess makes her way backstage. The encore may have ended on stage, but the real show is just about to begin. Johnnie's passion quickly turns to romance but the more time he and Jess spend together, the more things get complicated. Johnnie has a big decision to make about himself and the band, testing his loyalty and love for the music, and when Jess's dreams start to come true, she starts to realize that true love exists, but it's not always an easy path to take.

Wanna know more about the books? Here is what Karolyn had to say about them..

The original idea for Brothers of Rock was to take a band and take them off stage and show reader how they live their lives. I wanted a band that had already seen all the success they could see… a multi-album deal, millions of albums sold, tours, concerts, fans, cars, houses, riches… the true rockstar dream come to life. 

But each guy in Chasing Cross is a different person. It’s not just the instrument they play or the music they write or what they bring to the band or the shows. They are all different people. They have pasts, presents, and futures. Of course, all of this interconnects because of the band. For example, in All Access (Chasing Cross #1), Rick (the drummer) makes a careless decision that compromises the bands immediate future.

I titled it ‘Brothers of Rock’ because that’s what these guys are. They are brothers on stage and through music. But the interesting part is that as the books go on, they become more than just brothers on stage and through music. They walk through life together, helping each other, standing up for each other and to each other.

To lead off the series, I had to use Johnnie, the leader singer. He’s the most headstrong guy in the group and is pegged as the leader of the band even though he doesn’t consider himself that at all. It puts him in a tough spot when he has a major career decision to make… all the while meeting a beautiful woman who honestly has no idea who he is.

The idea intrigues him and thus begins a romantic relationship.

All the books in the Chasing Cross series can be read as stand alone novels but they are best enjoyed in order. There are storylines that connect throughout the series that readers are really enjoying. The five Chasing Cross books are coming to end in October but the Brothers of Rock series continues from there with another band! The band is Fallen Tuesday and it will be another five book series. The band is introduced in the last couple Chasing Cross books so readers will get to know Fallen Tuesday before their series kicks off. I’m really excited to continue the Brothers of Rock series into 2014!

So before I go, here’s a chance to meet Chasing Cross…

Johnnie: lead singer / guitarist
Davey: guitarist
Danny: guitarist
Chris: bassist
Rick: drummer
