Nikki Lane wrote songs about magical first glances and surrendered hearts, all while keeping hers locked away from lasting bruises. Even if she were willing to risk heartbreak, stardom and the relentless pace left no room for love.

It hardly left room for a booty call, but lord help her, she desperately needed a booty call.

She hungered for the heat, the wild abandon—so was it any wonder between the notes of the last song fading away and new beat yet to begin, that her eyes locked on tall, dark, and ready to rock her world in the front row? Standing in the sea of gyrating teeny boppers, with his back straight and confident grin, he stared into her soul and made her crave.

Aiden Powell buried his secret crush on Nikki Lane where his asshole twin would never find it and exploit it. When opportunity to see his crush in the flesh arises in the form of front row seats with VIP meet and greet privileges, he doesn’t hesitate to cover his afternoon patient appointments and head for the arena.

He has one chance, one night, to make his fantasy reality—and he would take it…

At the surface level, this pair should never work. They’re just too different. They have nothing in common. But it doesn’t take very long before we realize that both Aiden and Nikki/Natalie are hiding behind masks of who they think the world wants them to be. With one another, they drop the pretenses and are able to fall in love with the heart of the other person. Their story is sweet and funny and brought me to tears in more than one place. I absolutely hate that I’m already finished reading it. This is a book that I will come back to many more times in the future.

One night. A doctor. A popstar. It can't possibly morph into more, could it? But it could and it does. Along the way, Aiden and Nikki's trip will prove to both of them just how much more they can be. She has baggage and so does he, though, so they'll have to work double time to make their new relationship work.

This is a sweet, hot opposites attract story. Aiden and Nikki were so good together, from their very first sighting of each other when he stood out among all her other teenybopper fans, to the very last page. I haven't read the others in this series, but you can be sure I will now.

ARC via Hidden Gems Books for an honest review.

What a fun romp of a story! These two characters are wildly different, but they connect on a level that makes them both better versions of themselves. Nikki/Natalie is a pop star who lives two separate lives her public pop star persona as Nikki Lane and her normal self as Natalie. Aiden saw Nikki on a TV program several years ago and since then has had a strong interest in who she he saw...a glimpse of her inner self.

Both of these characters take a leap of faith, first in a epic night together after her last concert. She invited him to her hotel room after meeting him at the fan meet & greet before her show and then watched as he throws pride to the side and danced with teenage girls Seattle’s next to him in the front row. Later they reconnect after an inadvertent misunderstanding and go off together on a backroad road trip.

I loved their sense of adventure and their appreciation for who the other is at heart. This is a romantic and sweet love story with plenty of steam sexiness too. This was my first read by this author.

This ARC was provided by Hidden Gems and in exchange the below is my review. I have read several books by this author and enjoy her style. This is the second I have read in this series but not in order. This is a story about pop star Nikki Lane, who has an unusual fan in her VIP backstage meeting, Dr Aiden Powell. He is definitely different from her usual tween girl fans but seems to understand her and her music better than anyone. From this meeting they have a connection that they think might be just a one-night stand but turns into more with a road trip around New England. They have hot chemistry from the beginning, but the trip allows them to really get to know each other and build a relationship.

A true wordsmith!
Boy can Ms. Hagen paint a picture with words drawing you completely into the story! When Aiden meets Nikki it’s a connection that amazes her. Anxious to pursue whatever it is between them she uncharacteristically invites him back to her hotel room. She's a pop star and he's a chiropractor that makes for an interesting combination along with the 10-year age gap. Will they overlook their differences and look at what they have in common in order to find happiness together? Terrific characters and writing in this out of the ordinary read!

I am leaving this review voluntarily after being sent a free book. I found this book to be a book of self-discovery for Aiden and Natalie. Well more so for Aiden. It was nice how a hot one night stand grew into so much more after an interesting case of mistaken identity. I enjoyed reading about the road trip they took together and how their relationship developed. Burt was a great character to nudge them to the realization how special their love was. I only wish I could see the special picture described in the book of Natalie but I do have a pretty good imagination.

Everyone has had this fantasy at least once in their life. I hope it wasn’t just me. Meeting your favorite music star and getting your HEA with them. That’s exactly what happened to Aiden. The plot was well written and different from others. The storyline flowed smoothly throughout. It’s a sweet romance with lots of steam. Nicole (Nikki) and Aiden were terrific together. Their characters were well developed and easily relatable. I loved the author’s writing style. It made it easy to read. I can’t wait to read more from Casey Hagen.

Enjoyed this story from beginning to end. Aiden is drowning under the weight of obligation and family drama. When concert tickets to see a woman who caught his attention years before fall in his lap, he drops everything to get there for the pre-concert meet and greet. Little did he know that would be the beginning of a whole new life for him. Natalie (rock persona Nikki) is getting disillusioned with her pop star fame and is feeling lost. Little did she know her encounter with Aiden (and his twin brother) would change everything. A sweet romance with plenty of heat.

Thus a sweet story.
Aiden Powell works hard takes care of everyone but himself. His selfish twin never takes responsibility for anything when he has a chance to go and see is secret crash play a gig he jumps at the chance.

Nikki Lane is a star she sings songs about love whilst shielding her heart.

After a meeting and having a night together a series of misunderstanding nearly ends things before they begin
Sweet read.

He wants a break from his responsibilities, she longs for someone to see past the mask. One meeting changes everything. Will they allow they allow their hearts to heal each other?

Have to say, I loved this book. I loved the fact that he was determined to prove that he saw her as more than the performer. I loved that she gave him a sense of adventure and wonder back. It was a fun, cute read.

Another sweet and steamy read by Casey Hagen. What started out as a one night stand quickly becomes more than what they ever imagined. Aiden and Nikki don't do things for themselves...they are always pleasing or helping out others, until they both realize what they can't live without.

A quick and steamy read that was okay, it's an easy story with some inconsistencies in the Arc. I liked both the characters and plot just not the delivery.

This was a nice quick read. I liked how they discovered a lot about each other on their trip. This was a nice sweet read with a low level of angst.
