Synopsis

“Hello, Pittsburgh! You ready to rock?”

Nicks Sorenson, guitarist extraordinaire for the band Wild Angel, has a lot going on during her last year of high school. In fact, she sometimes wonders if someone has painted a bull’s eye on her forehead.

Stone Jensen, lead guitarist for the band Heavy Remedy, shows up everywhere she plays despite the bad blood between them. The high school principal is targeting her with endless detentions for some reason. And she’s starting to wonder if her mother is losing her mind.

Life soon spins into chaos for the Sorenson family. It began when Nicks learned the name of the dead musician who’d willed her his four guitars. Then came the dreams of a man shrouded in mist. She doesn’t recognize him, but he seems to know her.

As the strange occurrences escalate, Nicks goes on an unexpected—and painful—journey into the past.

She’s about to learn what you don’t know can hurt you.

Author’s Note: I’m trying my best to make this a stand-alone read, but it really will make more sense if you read Rock’n Tapestries first.

Review

Wild Angel is the second book in the Rock’n Tapestries Series and although it could be read as a standalone, I highly recommend that you read Rock’n Tapestries first.  It will make your reading experience of Wild Angel so much more pleasurable.  I really feel like you need to meet Asher Pratt to really understand and appreciate his daughter, Nicks’ story.  While this would be a great standalone, the emotional connection I had with Tage and Chelsea really helped me loved Nicks all the more. So, please, please read Rock’n Tapestries first.

I really do not even know where to start with this review because this book literally had IT ALL!  Nicks is an almost 19 year old, bad ass guitar playing, sassy mouthed, senior in High school.  She spends most of her time studying, playing Friday gigs at Tapestries (her parents bar) and serving detention for her stalkerish and, quite frankly, creepy as hell principal.  This is Nicks story.  It is the story of her meeting the love of her life, finding out family huge family secrets, and overcoming all of that.  This book even had a good bit of action, blood, and guts.  There was also a bit of a paranormal aspect.  I really like paranormal but even if you do not, there wasn’t so much of it that it would put you off of the story.  I ,literally, laughed out loud and cried a good many times through the course of this book.  And that ending, well let me tell you, I was really pissed off for a bit there, thinking that Shari had done it again to me, but I was relieved that even though Asher didn’t come through in life in Rock’n Tapestries, he came through in death in Wild Angel.  This was a great book, incredibly well written and kept me turning the pages.  A must read, for sure.
