Storm by Carian Cole

I had no idea crashing into a ditch would change my life forever.

Fate had other plans, and I never stood a chance.

A series of weather and road mishaps left me trapped in the middle of a blizzard with a complete stranger in the back of a pickup truck.

For forty-eight freakin' hours.

A stranger with long hair, tattoos, and rippling with muscle.

A stranger with an insanely sexy voice and a smile that turned my insides to jelly.

A stranger who held me in his arms, calmed me, and then set a fire in me that I couldn't put out.

I didn't know I was trapped with America's favorite bad boy guitarist, Storm Valentine. And he was in no rush to reveal his secret. He's used to getting everything he wants, and for some reason, he's decided he wants me.

Some people chase storms for the beautiful thrill. What happens when the storm chases you? 

Storm is Carian Cole's debut album and let me tell you, this lady has some skills! This book does not read like a debut album and I'm very happy I discovered her after she wrote a few more books so I didn't have to wait to read the next story. While this series is billed as a rockstar romance, there isn't as much actually rock starring as there are in other series. This book revolves primarily around the lives of the characters, and only spends a little bit of time on-stage or on-tour. 

Storm is the story of Storm and Evelyn, who meet each other in the middle of a blizzard. They end up stuck in Storm's truck, with his dog, for 2 days. Needless to say, those cramped quarters with a sexy, tatooed, muscled bad boy and a cute, sexy woman, lead to some interesting warm fuzzy feelings. Even after they are rescued from the blizzard, Storm can't help but feel something for Evie, even though she is currently in a long term relationship. Throughout their time together though, Storm shows Evie the things she's been missing in her relationship and makes her start to question why she's been in it for so long. Together they are cute and sweet and funny and loving and all the things we love in swoony romance couples. I absolutely loved them!

While there isn't expressly cheating, per se, a few lines were crossed. I won't say I loved that part of the story, but I did love how much Storm loved her, in spite of the obstacles they faced. Their story had its shares of ups and downs, but wasn't terribly angsty, which I also like. It gave me all the feels and I just wanted to hug Storm over and over again.

This book was fantastic, and I am super excited to dive in to Ms. Cole's next book.
