He's a world-famous rock star from Texas. I'm his personal assistant. Get ready to be charmed-and taken-in this dark romance series. "With nerves on edge, I head to Boulder Creek Lodge in Austin, Texas, to work as a personal assistant for the popular rock band South Bane. Lead singer John Monro is my biggest idol and turns out to be charismatic, brash ... and well, gorgeous, but I already knew that."

22-year-old fashion blogger Heidi can hardly believe her ears when she's offered a job as a personal assistant for the American rock band South Bane. Anxiously, she travels to Austin to work for her greatest idol, the band's lead singer, John Monro.

The magnetic and dominant John quickly becomes attracted to Heidi, but she resists his advances as best she can. Heidi's on a 14-day trial, and both her two-year relationship with Daniel and a specific clause in her employment contract stand in the way of her deepest desire: to surrender to the unabashedly flirtatious John.

The Chase is the first instalment in the Austin Series, and this is no sappy romance story. The books are dark and deliciously full of sin.

So, if reading about a female protagonist meeting an alpha male with a silver tongue and a dark mind (and a soft spot for our heroine) is for you, then you picked up the right series.
