The Rebellion (Hard to Resist Book 5)

Sinfully sexy rock stars are the cornerstone of New York Times Bestselling Author, S.L. Scott's prolific career. The Rebellion is the newest STAND-ALONE that brings soul-searing romance mixed with heartfelt emotions to fans of this genre.<br /><br /><br />I met my muse at fifteen. I’d just gotten busted for smoking behind the school gymnasium. She inspired me with her laugh and nonjudgmental attitude and, before I knew it, we were inseparable. Then I left to pursue my rock star dreams—dreams she encouraged.<br /> <br />I got over Jaymes Grenier no problem. I never think about that little bow at the top of her pink lips, or the way her green eyes admired mine. Nope, I barely recall the way she fit so perfectly in my arms when I held her at night. The sweet way she would whisper she loved me has long faded from memory.<br /> <br />These are the lies I regularly tell myself in hopes of believing them one day. Yeah, I was told I’d get over my first love.<br /> <br />I didn’t. <br /> <br />Derrick Masters marked me the moment we met back in ninth grade. He called me over—all bravado and bad boy mystery wrapped in a James Dean-esque package. Dark hair and blue eyes with a rebel without a cause charisma. He was everything I was warned about, but I couldn’t resist. I was his from that moment on.<br /> <br />His career took off almost as soon as he did. I knew it would. I just thought I would be beside him as his partner in crime, best friend, and lover. That’s what we had always been … before he left me behind to fend for myself.<br /><br />Fend? Fight is more like it.<br /> <br />I’ve been fighting ever since. <br /> <br />Fighting for survival.<br /> <br />Fighting for a better life in a world determined to keep me down.<br /> <br />I don’t have the luxury of letting my head live in the lure of La La Land. His dreams may have come true, but mine were extinguished. These days I fight for something bigger than me, bigger than we were ever meant to be.<br /><br />When his dreams come crashing back into my reality, is this a second chance at that fairy tale ending or another heartbreak in the making?
