This is the first book in the Trouble series, but it reads like the first in a serial.
Sabrina and her best friend Katie are super excited to be seeing the mega-huge band Trouble in concert. Sabrina is completely obsessed with the leader singer, Rob, and the girls even have front row tickets. Unfortunately, they arrive at the concert venue late and can’t find a way inside. As they’re trying all the doors to get in, a door suddenly opens and hits Sabrina in the head.
Rob Burns and his lead guitarist Tyler are looking for the bathroom, but they wind up locked outside with two crazed fans. While Tyler is trying to find a way back in, Rob is making sure Sabrina’s okay, but she’s totally star struck. After the show, Rob and Sabrina meet up for a wild night and the most perfect day neither of them expected.
I loved this book, but I’m surprised there wasn’t a big focus on the band, it’s history, and the other band members (besides Rob and Tyler). Sabrina and Rob are great show more characters. They’re both kind, smart, considerate, and levelheaded. Their romance bloomed fast, but it felt believable. Most rock star romances I’ve read deal with drug and alcohol abuse, and lots of women. Rob plays music because he enjoys it—he’s not in it for the fame and money—and he’s clean. He’s also married, though separated from his wife, and he’s been having fun with groupies on the current tour. It takes the chance meeting with Sabrina, however, to really make him feel alive and happy again.
Since this story is told only in Sabrina’s POV (first person), the reader doesn’t really know what’s going on in Rob’s head. Though I liked Rob, I couldn’t connect with him as easily as I did Sabrina.
The sex scenes were really hot and sweaty, which is always a plus for me! There were some distracting typos and unanswered questions, however. There’s a HFN ending, but the big question remains: how will their relationship work since he’s famous and living in L.A., and she doesn’t want to leave her home and city? I normally don’t read serials because I don’t like cliffhangers, so I really wish this question had been answered.

This was a fun quick read! I really enjoyed seeing the perfect day that Sabrina and Rob had together. There was more sex than I was expecting, but seeing the way Rob was with Sabrina really made it all worth it. Too bad he was leaving to finish the tour and she couldn't go with him! I would love to read more about those two and see if they really make it in the long run.
It's cute, I suppose. It's very little in the way of any plausibly realistic plot. They meet night 1 (and do it, of course), they have a "perfect day" (and do it in almost all of the rooms in her house) and then they have until noon on day 3 when he has to get back on the tour bus (and they do it of course again).
The writing was good enough to almost mae me want to buy the next book to see what happens. But that desire is overridden by the lack of plausible real connection. Pass.

Cute. Liked the characters. But not really that believable of an ending.
Cute little novel about a school teacher dressing the part of a rock and roll groupie and getting to meet her secret crush...the lead singer of her favorite group. Sabrina couldn't get enough of Rob, her dream come true, the lead singer of her favorite rock band. And now she was toe to toe with him because of a little accident with a door and her face. But hey, it got her and her friend back stage passes didn't it, so a little bump on the head was nothing. But then the bump on the head proved to be the greatest thing since sliced bread and in Sabrina's mind, her dream come true. Rob wanted to spend time with her and spending time with her entailed all of her wildest fantasies.
