You know the
American dream that's sold to us from the time we're small that tells us we're
supposed to want the house, the husband, the dog, the 2.5 kids, and the white
picket fence? Most women buy into that
and work towards that goal their whole lives.
Unless you'd like to turn all your hopes and dreams on their heads and
totally derail all your plans, do not read this book. Your nice white picket fence and responsible
hubby with a stable job are going to look like a waste of your life after you
meet Jase Collins. After reading this
book you may never be satisfied until you find a rocker boy of your own and
make him yours. Jase is just that hot!
We've all done things we've regretted, or made a mistake we've had to pay a
price for, but Fallon Morgan messed up in the luckiest way ever when she had a
one night stand with Jase. This man is a
hot bad boy drummer who always has everything his way and makes it so by sheer
force of personality. Until Fallon, all he wanted was the party life with drugs
and women in abundance. Until her
encounter with Jase, all Fallon wanted was to make it through med school. Circumstances (that are unexpected and
unbelievably sweet) change things for both of them over the course of time
throughout this book. By the end, the
author has revealed enough character development to see the heart of gold that
resides in Jase buried deep behind the rocker façade that's portrayed to his
fans and the public. We actually go
through the evolution of Fallon's character that begins with her narrow view of
life that involves only her goals for the future to the exclusion of all else
and ends with her realizing there's room for more in her life than just bare
basics. This book has elements of Pretty
Woman (minus the money changing hands) and 50 Shades (minus the bondage) which
mix together nicely to create a warm gooey feeling in your heart… and
panties. All the character and story
niceties aside… this book is smokin' hot!
It's not just a bodice ripper, there is a plot, but the sexual tension
is unreal! This, like all the other
Gracen Miller books I've been lucky enough to get my hands on, is a must read!

Review for Lost In The Beat by Gracen Miller
My review for Lost In The Beat by Gracen Miller
Bad boy Jase Collins has always enjoyed his life style. As the drummer of the hottest band around, Hot Wired, he has his choice of women and his relationships rarely last more than one night.
One night is all it can take to change your life. Fallon Morgan finds this out her one night with Jase. Jase knew when it happened that something was different about her but he doesn't even know her name.
When Fallon has no choice but to introduce Jase to Faith he finds out who she is. Now both women hold his heart and while Faith loves him instantly will he give up his bad boy ways to prove himself worthy of Fallon's love?
Gracen never ceases to amaze me. It's a given that anything she writes is gonna be good but it still blows me away at the depth and uniqueness of her characters. They're always so real and detailed that you can't help but think of them as real people. It draws you in to their story even farther and you end up as lost in the story as the characters are Lost In The Beat.

Rhythm is the heart of every song.
Jase Collins lives for the stage and the perks of rock
stardom. His wild antics and high-profile affairs have
earned the sexy drummer
the title of Hot Wired’s bad boy. He’s not quite as jaded as
his fans think—but
just jaded enough not to recognize the best thing that’s
ever happened to him
until she walks out of his life. And he doesn’t even know
her name.
But
without harmony a man is lost.
Fallon Morgan has had her life mapped out since high school.
She’s earned a full ride scholarship to UCLA with the
driving goal of earning
her doctorate. Nothing can derail her dreams—except maybe a
one-night stand
with the infamous Jase Collins. His chilly reception the
morning after
convinces her to put her biggest mistake in the past and
move on without
looking back.
When two hearts begin to beat as
one…
When Fallon’s life takes a dramatic turn, she finds herself
with no one else to turn to for help. Jase is obnoxious,
demanding, and yet
surprisingly tender. Though it chafes her to depend on him,
the more time she
spends with him changes her perceptions of the bad boy
rocker. With each
passing day she finds more and more faith in the man behind
the public persona.
If she can learn to trust her feelings, she might be willing
to risk her heart.
They
could find themselves Lost in the
Beat!
Every cell in Fallon’s body
wanted
to rebel on principal. Like the good girl she was, she
succumbed to Jase’s
demands. “Do you ever not get what you
want?”
“Yeah.” He stepped right into her
personal space, knocking his very naked chest against her
breasts.
The way her nipples protruded
upon
contact, they might as well have been naked against his
flesh. The simultaneous
dampness in her panties unnerved her. Damn her traitorous
body! She ignored the
pulsing between her thighs and coerced her libido to focus
on him and not her
body’s
yearnings.
He lifted his hand and wrapped
his
fingers around her ponytail. A slow, gentle pull on her hair
and he notched her
head back. “Twice last year I didn’t get
what I wanted.” He sounded put
out by the
inconvenience.
Proof he
lives a charmed life! That
was as good as always getting
his way in her valuation. She’d endured many more
disappointments than that in
the past
year.
His sapphire-blue eyes looked
black
in the dim lighting. “Care to know what those two
were?”
If she said no, then he’d suspect
she predicted those disappointments centered on
her.
“I’ll take your silence as a yes.
Number
one…I didn’t want Sam and Fang together.” Surprised, her
eyes widened at his
confession. The tabloids would pay good money for that juicy
tidbit. “Didn’t
think they were right for one another. Gave them a lot of
hell for that.” He
shrugged. “My accident—you heard about that, right?” At her
nod, he went on. “It
reminded me how short life is, so I gave them my blessing to
be together.”
Fallon licked her lips,
suspecting
his sister hadn’t really needed his blessing to do what she
wanted. “It was the
right thing to
do.”
A humorous glint sparkled in his
eyes. “I’m not known for doing the right thing,
darlin’. Like now.”
She frowned. “What do you
mean?”
He adjusted his hand, sliding it
along her ponytail, before burying his fingers into the coil
of her strands
beneath the snug grip of the rubber band. His other arm
curled around her shoulders,
drawing her tight against his frame. Her heart pounded in
her ears, and he
smelled
good.
Jase nipped her bottom lip and at
her sharp gasp, he took advantage and slid his tongue into
her mouth. The cool
minty taste of him verified he’d taken the time to brush his
teeth.
Her eyelids fluttered shut, and
she
groaned upon his first contact, a slow drag of his tongue
against hers. The
immediate surge of wetness that drenched her panties
scandalized her.
Her eyelids snapped open, and she
spied
him watching her. Fine lines creased the corners of his
eyes. Again and again
his tongue caressed hers, reminding her how he’d licked her
breasts and between
her legs.
More moisture dampened her
panties,
and her passage clenched in need. She compressed her thighs,
but that action
caused her ache to grow instead of abate as she’d intended.
He withdrew from her
mouth, and she almost botched stifling her groan of
disappointment. Awed by the
effect Jase asserted over her body, she stared at his lips.
She’d lost all
sense of restraint when he’d put them on
her.
Just
like the first time.
“You were
the second thing I wanted last year.” He removed his arm
from her shoulders and
ran his thumb along her jaw. “I had private investigators
search for you, but
they repeatedly came up
empty-handed.”
Stunned by the admission, she
wasn’t
sure what to make of it or if she even believed him. “Why’d
you have P.I.’s
looking for
me?”
“Because you’re the one that got
away.”
Jase looked serious. He didn’t flinch away from her
direct stare. Didn’t
grin, didn’t even blink. But the idea that she was ‘the one
that got away’ was
ludicrous…Fallon snorted, calling bullshit. She bet he said
that to every woman
he wanted to screw. While he could have his pick of women,
she was a convenient
lay.
I am no one’s dupe.
“This chick isn’t stupid enough
to
believe that
line.”
A flash of hurt pinched his
features. His mouth parted as if he’d say something, but he
settled for shaking
his head and dragging his fingers through his
hair.
Their sultry spell demolished,
she watched
him, refusing to allow herself to regret her callous
honesty. He could have any
woman he wanted, but she wasn’t for
sale.
Jase released his hold on her and
picked
up the keys and cell she’d dropped on the floor. He placed
them on the counter
and met her gaze dead-on. “You’re obviously not as intelligent
as I thought you
were
either.”
Gracen is a
hopeless daydreamer masquerading as a “normal” person in
southern society. When
not writing, she’s a full-time basketball/lacrosse/guitar
mom for her two sons
and a devoted wife to her real-life hero-husband of over
twenty years. She has an
unusual relationship with her muse, Dom, but credits all her
creative success
to his brilliant mind. She’s addicted to writing, paranormal
romance novels and
movies, Alabama football, and coffee...addictions are not
necessarily in order
of priority. She’s convinced coffee is nectar from the gods
and when blending
coffee and writing together it generates the perfect
creative merger. Many of
her creative worlds are spawned from coffee highs and Dom’s
aggressive demands.
