Title: Unplugged (Blue Phoenix,
#3)
Author: Lisa Swallow
Release Date: September
29th
Genre: Contemporary Romance
SYNOPSIS
A rock star, the girl from his past and a Disney
princess.
Find out what happens when Liam Oliver is unplugged from Blue Phoenix.
"A rock star doesn't return to his humble beginnings and whisk away the girl he kissed once. Especially if she has a four year old and her relationship status is 'it's complicated'."
Blue Phoenix bass player, Liam Oliver discovers pictures of his fiancée with another man and his world crashes around him. He packs up his humiliation and hurt and flies back to his Welsh family home for Christmas.
Cerys Edwards once had pictures of Liam Oliver covering her bedroom wall. Her best friend's big brother never gave her the time of day when they were growing up. When she was fifteen, he left town leaving Cerys with her fantasies. Now he's back. The problem is, she has a daughter and a broken relationship of her own. Do they have a second chance?
In the world of his Christmas past, Cerys and Liam reconnect. Are they two hurt people looking for comfort in a time of heartbreak or does Cerys have a place in Liam's future too?
Months later and unplugged from his Blue Phoenix lifestyle, Liam reconnects with Cerys. He discovers Cerys's world is full of complications he never expected - including Ella's father who isn't happy about being replaced by a rock star.
Unplugged is more than a rock star romance. This is a story of second chances, family and unexpected bonds made that can't be broken.
This is book three of the Blue Phoenix rock star series but can be read as a standalone - Liam and Cerys are minor characters in the first two books.
No cliffhanger.

EXTRACT
Our
faces touch, his rough cheek against my forehead, and I know if I move my head
a few centimetres, our mouths will meet and our worlds will shift.
"Is
kissing you still wrong?" I ask.
"Your
lips are meant to be on mine." He moves his face. The static charge of our
mouths so close and the snow drifting onto our bodies drag us into a surreal
world. The shift happens. I slide my cheek along his, the stubble scratching my
skin as my lips meet the edge of his.
The
world is covered in white, hidden from reality; a reality that I hate
currently. I can escape for an evening, maybe a few days, and allow his
blizzard to overwhelm me. If life is the same struggle when everything melts
away again, a few moments lost in a fantasy after months of feeling worthless
are what I need and worth the consequences.
Liam
digs his hand into my hair and crashes his mouth against mine. I gasp in
surprise at the force as he delves his tongue into my mouth, sliding against
mine. When Liam kissed me in the bedroom the other day, there was a tension in
him where he held back part of himself. Was this because Liam knew I did too?
This time the world falls away completely as we kiss frantically, noses bumping
as he pulls me into the snowstorm that is Liam Oliver.
Liam
moves to kiss my cheeks, a delicious scrape against my skin as his hot lips
burn into my cool neck. He slides a hand around my waist, beneath my coat and
holds me against him. Convinced my legs are going to give way and cursing the lack
of walls for Liam to press me against, I grip his sleeve.
Liam
nudges his nose back across my face, hot breath mingling with mine and misting
in the air. “Definitely feels right,” he whispers.
Then
Liam kisses me so gently that he takes my soul and pulls it apart. My head
spins as the intensity of the slow kiss fills me with a craving for this man
that will never be satiated. This is more than feeling right, this is our
hearts open and raw finding their way together.
Which
means when they’re torn apart again the pain will kill me.
The
heat we create counteracts the falling temperature around us but the cold of
reality isn't far. I pull my face away; I need to pull myself out of this.
Review By Rose
WOWZA Liam!!! You really Rocked this book Lisa!!
Liam and Cery's Story was always going to be an interesting one, I wasn't sure how Lisa was going to get them together. I was looking forward to reading all about Liam's story especially after we got a snap shot of him with another girl in Falling Sky. I loved it and really not sure what to say about the book without spoilers!!
It was an awesome read and had me turning the pages on my kindle, I wanted to knock some sense into both of them at times but that only proves how much I was loving the story line and the characters. I loved that we saw Liam's softer side in UNPLUGGED!! He is a real catch and boy some sexy ass scenes was heating up the kindle.
I also loved that we had snippets of the other band members, woot woot!!
If you haven't read the Blue Phoenix series you are truly missing out on some awesomeness!!
5 Stars . . . Rose
