The Blurb

Between the past and the future there are always strings attached
Caterer George Fraser has a mission. She's going to prove everyone wrong. Ambitious owner of catering firm Finger Food and black sheep of her family, she's determined to succeed in business where she's so far failed in her personal life. Asked to cater for gorgeous rock star Quinn Blake's after-show party, her life suddenly takes a turn for the dramatic.
Magnetically drawn together, George and Quinn embark on a relationship that no one must know about. But is Quinn everything he seems or is there more to his star life than he's telling her?
Things hot up when George is invited to the wedding of the millennium and her integrity very soon becomes compromised. With celebrity obsessed colleague Marisa in the mix and her beloved Adam spending more time in her life, can George keep her secrets and hold on to her ambition, or will love finally get in the way?

Quinn Blake is an International Rock Star doing a tour of the UK.  
George Fraser is owner of her own catering company Finger Foods.  She is doing well despite being the black sheep of the family, according to her mother.  
George is asked to cater for an after show party for Quinn Blake at short notice.  She doesn't want to pass on the opportunity when she hears what Michael, Quinn's aide will pay for the inconvenience. So, along with her faithful team of employees and her little brother, Adam they do such a good job that Michael asks them to continue to cater for the rest of the after shows and more importantly, the wedding of the year!
Quinn just made me feel like a teenager again drooling over the lastest pop/rock idol. His dialogue is sultry and he comes across as a man of few words, mysterious but exciting.  There is a lot more to Quinn behind that Rock image, even he is not sure who he is.
George is fairly grounded and knows that this is not a romance that can be pursued, after all he must have a girl in every town,  but no matter how much she tries to stay away from Quinn she finds it almost impossible. 
When George is asked to cater for the wedding of the year, she takes the opportunity to take her business to the next level.   She has to be professional and put her business first.
The chemistry between George and Quinn from the very first meeting is intense and the intensity continues right to the last page.  
This  hot, Rock n Roll romance is pure escapism and I loved it!

4.5 out of 5 for me!
