If you listen closely you’ll notice that almost every book has its own soundtrack.
Somtimes it’s a song you accidentially heard on the radio while reading the book
or it’s a song that the story remindes you of.
In other cases it’s a song or a playlist that the author mentioned during the story or at the end of it.
 
It does not matter where the song came from, but
if you notice that you are suddenly tempted to hear that mentioned song
and that you still think about that song days and weeks after finishing that book….
That
there are even tears in your eyes or you can’t stop smiling, because
you start to think about a scene in that book that is related to the
song….
 
 
If
any or all of those situations fit a certain song – this song should be
in this list together with the book to give other readers the chance to
experiece the same you do by listening to the song.

I fell in love once.

It was amazing. She was amazing. Life was amazing.

I
lived for each time I could see her, and nothing else mattered, not
that our families were enemies, our time together was forbidden, or we
had to meet in secret.

Our love could conquer all.

Until it didn’t.

So I was ripped away from the love of my life and shoved into hell, forced to continue without her.

It shattered me, broke the best parts of me, left me permanently damaged.

Or so I thought.

Years
later, I swear history’s trying to repeat itself because she’s back in
my life, and I’m just as drawn to her as I was before. But I’m older and
wiser now, and I know she should stay away from a worthless ex-con like
me.

So, I will not let her in. I absolutely refuse to hurt her. I will keep her away.

Then
again, sometimes risking your greatest fear to get to a smile makes
everything worth it, and besides, I’m not sure I can resist her, anyway.

This
is the story of how Felicity Bainbridge changed my life forever,
starting one summer day long ago after I was forced to change a dirty
diaper…

BLURB
Twentysomething Kat
Reid is loving life as an in-demand Hollywood makeup artist. She has
absolutely no interest in rock ’n’ roll, but in order to pay the
mortgage, she agrees to work on the set of a rock video for the
world-famous rockers known as Bad Habit…which brings her face-to-face
with Nico Nyx, lead singer of Bad Habit and Adonis in the flesh.
However,
the fiercely independent Kat isn’t impressed by the hard-living,
womanizing rock star. But when Nico’s model girlfriend shows up to the
set drunk and Kat is tapped to replace her as the video’s sexy bride,
her combustible chemistry with Nico suddenly threatens to consume the
set. Nico feels it, too—and becomes determined to win Kat over, body and
soul. Yet behind his rock god swagger, Nico hides a dark secret. Can he
rock Kat’s world forever, or will he just break her heart?

Sweet As Sin Soundtrack

 
 
 
I never listen to music while writing because I need to concentrate, but I do become obsessed with certain songs while I’m writing certain books. I’ll listen to them over and over in the car or on my iphone, picturing the characters, thinking about scenes, letting my imagination go crazy, then write all those ideas down. So
music definitely inspires my writing. Here are a few of the songs I was
obsessed with while writing Sweet As Sin. (Links open Amazon Music window.)
 
 
1.      Bad
Habit, The Kooks
2.      Figure
It Out, Royal Blood
3.      My
Type. Saint Motel
4.      Cancion
del Mariachi, Antonio Banderas & Los Lobos
5.      Dangerous,
Big Data
6.      Do
I Wanna Know? Arctic Monkeys
7.      Animal,
Neon Trees
8.      Sugar,
Maroon V
9.      She
Does (Piano Version), Collective Soul

 A fallen boxer.
A woman with a broken dream.
A competition…

He even makes me forget my name. One night was all it took, and I forgot
everything and anything except the sexy fighter in the ring who sets my
mind ablaze and my body on fire with wanting…

Remington Tate is the strongest, most confusing man I’ve ever met in my life.

He’s the star of the dangerous underground fighting circuit, and I’m drawn
to him as I’ve never been drawn to anything in my life. I forget who I
am, what I want, with just one look from him. When he’s near, I need to
remind myself that I am strong—but he is stronger. And now it’s my job
to keep his body working like a perfect machine, his taut muscles primed
and ready to break the bones of his next opponents…

But the one he’s most threatening to, now, is me.

I want him. I want him without fear. Without reservations.

If only I knew for sure what it is that he wants from me
