Half-Life bassist Krist Mellas is caught in a PR nightmare after his dirty sex video blew up
online. His agent has the solution: a fake engagement with sultry pop princess Madeline Fox.
Krist can’t think of anything worse than a charade with the bubblegum bombshell…except losing
the band.
Madeline knows better than anyone what it means to live a lie in the spotlight. She’s determined
to help Krist without ever letting him find out what it costs her—or about her girlhood crush on
him. But after a smoking hot back alley encounter with him leaves her breathless, she can’t
deny she wants the snarling bad-boy rocker.
In a world of glitter and diamonds where the kisses are fake but the climaxes are real, their
facades start to crack. And the publicity storm may shatter them both.
WARNING: This book contains a scorching threesome, a dirty talking pop princess, and a surly
rocker who hits all the right notes.

Book One in the Half-Life Series
Three Nights with a Rock Star (Half-Life #1)
When Hailey crashes a Half-Life after party, she expects to find the bastard who knocked up her little
sister. Instead she meets the sexy front-man who agrees to give her access to his crew if she gives him
access to her body.
All Lock demands in return is three days of complete control over the Sunday School teacher. With a
contract, because he’s been burned before. One misstep could send the band—and his tenuous
sobriety—up in flames.
Hailey and Lock push each other’s limits… Against the penthouse window. Backstage. In the limo and on
the elevator. But as the contract counts down, neither are ready for the party to end.

“This book will ROCK YOUR SOCKS RIGHT OFF!” – Red’s Hot Reads
“Three Nights with a Rock Star has the love story, the push you up against a door sex, and the holy hell I
can’t believe they’re doing that ménage sex, but it also has the sweetness of family and the heartbreak of
possible betrayals, broken friendships, and leaked sex tapes. I cannot wait to read Krist’s story, One Kiss
with a Rock Star!” – Hines and Bingam’s Literary Tryst
“The chemistry between Lock and Hailey is blistering. Sparks flew the first time they saw each other. It
was nice to see that both main characters had issues to work through to be able to maintain a relationship
between them.” – Cocktails and Books
“Three Nights With A Rock Star was right up my ally, I loved every minute of it! From the sexy lead singer
Lock, to the cute mousy Hailey. I’m more than looking forward to the next book One Kiss with a Rock
Star.” – Books Unhinged

About the Authors
Amber Lin writes erotic romance with damaged souls and deep emotion.
Her debut novel, Giving It Up, received The Romance Review’s Top Pick, Night Owl Top Pick, and 5 Blue
Ribbons from Romance Junkies. RT Book Reviews gave it 4.5 stars, calling it “truly extraordinary.” She
has been published by Loose Id, Carina Press, and Entangled.
Amber married her high school sweetheart, birthed a kid who’s smarter than she is, and spends her nights
writing down her dirty thoughts. In other words, life is good.
Shari Slade is a snarky optimist. A would-be academic with big dreams and very little means. When she
isn’t toiling away in the non-profit sector, she’s writing gritty stories about identity and people who make
terrible choices in the name of love (or lust). Somehow, it all works out in the end. If she had a patronus it
would be a platypus.

Excerpts:
Excerpt #1
There was a moment, after the makeup artist and hair stylist had gone, before the
choreographer and director had arrived, that Madeline was alone. The silence disoriented her,
making her pulse heavy.
It was like stepping off a carousel, unsteady on her feet and squinting into the sun. Though in
her case, she was unsteady on four-inch heels and blinking at fashion lights lining the wall. Her
short puffs of breath expanded to fill the empty dressing room. Every piece of clothing that had
been specially crafted and fitted to her body suddenly tugged and scratched and pinched.
The door slammed open—no knock—and her choreographer stood there. Just like that, the off-
kilter moment was over, banished to the Island of Misfit Memories. She was Madeline Fox
again, back in her groove. Adequate singer. Dazzling performer. She was a goddamn pop
princess—and princesses never had to be alone.
“Oh, sweetheart,” Jimmy said in his customary affected voice. “You look fabulous.”
Doing a little circle to show off her costume, she preened. Literally preened since she had
feathers glued onto her arms. “Are you sure I don’t look a little…avian?”
“Please. No one will be looking at your arms in that glitter bra. Every boy in the audience will
have a hard-on the size of Texas.”
Madeline rolled her eyes. Jimmy had been saying that to her since she was fifteen. He got away
with it because he pretended to be gay. A requirement for being successful in this business, or
so he’d told her in a rare moment of seriousness.
“Come on, sweetie. Your devil awaits you.”
She clapped her hands together, barely holding in her squee. She hadn’t been sure Krist would
come. Even though he owed her. Even though she’d sent their mutual agent to ensure that
extra push. “Ward came through for me?”
Right on cue, Ward entered stage right. Alex Ward had a man’s name and the personality of a
shark. In short, she was the perfect agent. “I always come through for you. You’re the best, and
you deserve the best.”
“Aww, I bet you say that to all the multiplatinum artists.”
Ward didn’t deny it. But then, she might not have heard. She was currently speaking into her
Bluetooth while tapping the tablet propped over her arm.
The important thing was Madeline would get to see Krist today. She’d get to kiss him. And now
she was nervous.
She was never nervous.
The spicy scent of warm chai hit her like an orgasm. “Fuuuuck. Someone is about to be my best
friend.”
A latte cup was lifted from behind Jimmy’s head. Her assistant. God bless assistants, really.
Especially this one, who’d brought her chai. Piper? Penelope? Was it a boy or a girl? Not that it
mattered. Madeline swung both ways.
But before she could grab hold of the cup, her voice coach was there with her endless litany of
rules and regulations. No smoking. No drinking. No deep throating. Blah blah blah. And
definitely no chai before a performance.
“Hey,” Madeline said, pouting. “I’m not even going to be singing.”
Her agent glanced over. “Oh, we changed that. We want some vocals off the main track for a
director’s cut. That one’s going on YouTube.”
Jimmy winked. “A little improv goes a long way.”
All righty, so she would sing. In front of Krist Mellas, bass player and vocalist for Half-Life. Her
stomach turned over as she grabbed the chai and took a drink. It wasn’t spiked, so the assistant
whoever-the-fuck was clearly still in training mode. Big girls got a shot with their latte, and
Madeline had been a big girl since she turned fourteen on the set of KidMania five years ago.
The sea of people pushed her along.
No one specifically told her to move. No one asked. They just moved, and she had no choice
but to move with them. She didn’t want a choice. This was easy. This was mindless. Swivel your
hips and sing until it hurts.
This was her life.
