Managed by Kristen Callihan
5.0
Managed is the story of a buttoned-up, controlled, self-possessed man who comes completely unraveled by the love of a good woman. This opposites attract tale, set in the world of rock-and-roll, will leave you begging for more! I just turned off the Kindle and I'm already craving more from the guys who make up Kill John, the hottest rock band around.
But, in a sweet twist, this book isn't about one of the on-stage Heroes, no, this is the story of their manager. Gabriel Scott has his hands full managing the world's most popular band. He lords over his domain and everyone in it with an iron-will. When he meets Sophie Darling on a plane, his whole world starts to shift. Suddenly, nothing seems to matter but her. There are shadows in Sophie's past, but the light is shined on those fairly early. Managed is full of the most delicious angst. The love story for Gabriel and Sophie is a slow burn that explodes with intensity and passion.
I really, really, love these characters. Kristen Callihan has created the fantastic world that rotates around Kill John. Each of the characters has a distinctive point-of-view and role to play in the stories. Their bonds with one another add depth and color to book. But, the coming books will have to work hard to live up to the love story of Scottie and Sophie. If you're looking for a great read, check out this well-developed, opposites attract, rock-and-role love story. You won't be sorry for one-clicking this chart topper!
