Rockstar romance books

Stadiums full of screaming fans — and the only audience she's playing for is him.

The rockstar heroine is fame, talent, and barely-contained electricity. She commands a stage, lives at a decibel level most people couldn't survive, and carries the particular loneliness of a woman surrounded by people who only love the image. The hero is often the one person who sees the artist behind the persona — and isn't dazzled by the fame.

She powers a glamorous, high-emotion corner of contemporary romance, full of tour buses, recording studios, and the tension between a love story and a public life, and overlaps with the musician, celebrity, and performer types. The conflict tends to turn on whether something real can survive the spotlight. The heat ranges from warm to high.

For readers who love passion, music, and a heroine who's a goddess on stage and a real woman off it, the rockstar hits all the right notes.
