Evangeline Walker knows how quickly everything can change.

But nothing can prepare her for the moment she meets Rafe Hunter.

Intense gray eyes.

Wicked smile.

Tattoos inked on his skin just begging to be touched. 

Those aren’t the reasons Eva should stay away from him though.

The fact he’s the bassist for America’s hottest rock band is the reason she should run and never look back.

Everyone knows the greatest love stories all start somewhere.

... this is their beginning.

RUSH Blitz!

The first book in a brand new emotional and angsty new adult romance series from L A Cotton is live!!!

Eva and Rafe's story was cute and entertaining. The book is a really fast read and it keeps you engaged all the time in the story.

Eva has been through a lot and is not sure she deserves to still be here. While Rafe's demons are still hidden, we can tell they are the really bad kind. Can they make it with all that darkness surrounding them?

It is an instant love kind of story, super strong connection in seconds and bleeding hearts in weeks, which makes sense since they are children.

We are left with a little cliffhanger waiting to see what Rafe's whole deal is and if Eva is making the right choice.

I love rockstar romances so it was a really enjoyable book and I can't wait to know what happens in their story.

EXCERPT:


“I made you some hot chocolate.” He offered me the mug and I took a sip, the smooth rich liquid warming my insides.


“How very rock star of you.”


“I try.” His gray eyes twinkled with laughter. “Come here.”


I went to Rafe, and he eased the mug out of my hand, placing it on the ledge. His long fingers brushed my jaw, moving along my neck and into my hair as he tilted my face up to his. “I’ve wanted to do this again all night.”


My hands wound around his neck as he kissed me, his lips brushing over mine with a heated desperation I felt right down to my toes. We stumbled back as Rafe’s hand slipped to the small of my back pushing me closer as he pressed me against the wall.


“Rafe…” I panted and he broke the kiss.


“You want me to stop?” His eyes searched mine, his pupils blown with lust.


“N- no.”


“Thank fuck.” He dived for me again, attacking my mouth with fervent need. One of his hands slid to my throat, stroking the skin there, his lips chasing his fingers. Sucking and biting, sending shocks of pleasure zinging through me.


“Where have you been all my life?” Rafe whispered into my neck, his words so low I wasn’t sure they were for me. But I’d heard them. Like a gunshot to the heart they’d impacted me.


It was crazy.


We didn’t know each other. We didn’t know any of the important stuff. But I was falling. Hurtling towards the ground hoping, praying, he’d be there to catch me.


“Eva, tell me what you want?” He lifted his face, eyes dark and stormy and so full of need. I swallowed hard.


“This.” I pulled his face to mine, kissing him deeply, rubbing myself against him shamelessly. His mouth curved, and he pushed his head to mine, forcing me further against the wall. My hands pressed at my sides, steadying myself as he hooked one of his hands under my thigh, hitching my leg around his hip. I could feel him thick and hard beneath his jeans, but I wasn’t ready for that.
