I avoided this book for so long and now I don’t know why I did. Yes, it was cheesy at times, but overall, it was a good story about two guys who have been worked over by the music business and managed to find each other. Billy was thrust into the spotlight early as part of a boy band and was betrayed by everyone from his manager to his own mother. Jett just wanted to make his music his way, screw being mainstream and giving someone else control, no matter what his band says. When they come together, it is explosive and perfect.

I want too sure how Blondie was attracted with Jett with his addictions but it was very endearing that even with his issues he was till there for Blondie. the book was better than i expected.

This book is so cringey. Like these two straight guys literally became gay for each other overnight after falling in lust at first sight. They alternate between outrageous bouts of insatiable sex and teeth-decaying professions of undying love like they're sniffing between cock and coke.

I really enjoyed this book and might even give it 4.5/5. It reminded me of [b:Heaven Sent|3236765|Heaven (Heaven Sent, #1)|Jet Mykles|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1306077372s/3236765.jpg|3271400], which is good because that is exactly what I was hoping for. With the same publisher, same cover artist, and both about musicians, I was hoping they would be similar.

Black Gold is extremely low drama, which is what I loved about Heaven Sent, but this is even less so. From the time Jett and Goldie meet they pretty much live happily ever after. The media, execs, and bandmates give them a hard time, but it pretty much all just glances off them. They don't let anything come between them. They are such an odd pair, a punk rocker and a pop icon. And their personalities are an unexpected match too, but they are so adorable together. This also has a lot of sex if that is what you loved about Heaven Sent.

I only now noticed that there is a sequel, and it is not just a quick 10 page holiday special like in the Heaven Sent series. Its a full length sequel which I am a little confused about because the ending of this one was perfect. I just hope that it is as long drama as this one. I want to see Jett and Goldie still living happily ever after together.

This book really did not do it for me. While I can appreciate and enjoy reading situations of falling in love quickly, this just did not seem like it worked. It happened TOO fast with no real explanation of why, especially when one of the characters was supposedly straight and seriously against any kind of relationship. It didn't connect with me as an overall book.

Fabulously over the top romance between between a lipgloss/high heeled male pop star and a punk rocker. When they get together all is sweetness and light and off-the-charts hot sex. The only downside here is the fact that they talk far too freaking much. Yes, they talk like two young tween lovebirds about everything that pops in their heads. It exhausted me. Still, I loved them as a pair and will be on the lookout from more by these authors.
