It's time to Rock And Roll in earnest! Yes, Nicky Wells is here to celebrate the launch of Sophie’s Encore. Three cheers for the third book in her Rock Star Romance Trilogy!!!
Says Nicky,
“I’m so excited to share with you, finally, this third installment in Sophie and Dan’s epic romance! Thank you for coming to celebrate with me. Read on for:
The Book Chick's Review!
The fantabulous giveaway!
But most of all, enjoy yourself and party hard! Are you ready?”
A lot has happened since we last saw Sophie. She's a mom now and she has been through the highest of highs and the lowest of lows as she has navigated marriage and motherhood. Through it all Dan Hunter, lead singer of Tusq, long-time friend and former lover, has been there. He's there at 3 am when Sophie is overwhelmed with parenthood and he's there when the kids need him. Sophie has changed in the past few years, but so has Dan.
When Dan decides that it is time for Sophie to finally do something for herself he draws her back into the world of rock little by little. As Sophie begins learning how to mix and master sound, something that she has a natural talent for, she begins to open up again and she begins to blend the parts of her old life and new life together to form something worth holding on to.
Sophie's Encore was by far my favourite of the three novels in this series. I'm not sure if that's because Sophie has really grown on a personal level since we last saw her and is standing firmly on her own two feet making her own decisions, or if it's because adding motherhood into the mix made it more relevant to me personally, but I loved it. Dan Hunter is back and better than ever, and I loved this new, less selfish version of him.
I also thought that the budding romance between Dan and Sophie was balanced beautifully. It wasn't overdone, yet there was enough going on that I found it intriguing and a great addition to the story. I found myself cheering them on as they came to the inevitable conclusions about themselves.
I can't think of one thing that I would complain about when it comes to Sophie's Encore. The plot felt realistic and it kept me interested, the writing was tight, and the peeks into the life of a rock star were intriguing. Sophie's Encore was a worthy finale to the Rock Star Romance series. My thanks to the author for inviting me on this tour!
