One hot night turned into the start of forever. Is the sexy rocker still keeping up the tempo? BRITT Falling for the dirty talking rock star wasn’t part of the plan. I’d spent years dancing away from commitment. Then he waltzed right into my heart when I wasn’t looking. Life was wonderful once we stopped fighting our feelings. I was pretty content with our exclusive, yet undefined, relationship. But then his public relations team suggested a publicity date because I had a scheduling conflict for his big night. The thought of another woman on his arm, even if only for the cameras, made my heart ache. How did I convince him to be my permanent dance partner? BROOKS Forever was never on my radar. Not until her. Now it was the only thing on my mind. I was sure she still had her doubts about love being able to last, especially with a guy like me.

No other rhythm would ever do. ***This story originally appeared in The Rockstars' Ball anthology Vol. 1
