DEEP is Book four in the "Stage Dive series by
Kylie Scott.
As a huge fan of the Stage Dive series, I have been
really looking forward to Lizzie & Ben's book. DEEP is an
example of the wonderfully layered, character-driven
stories I've come to expect from a Kylie Scott book. I
recommend reading the previous books in this series before
reading DEEP -- not because it can't work as a stand-alone
story, but to get a better understanding of the main
characters and the group dynamic.
There are so many aspects of DEEP that make a compelling
story, in addition to the romance. DEEP explores the
themes
of family, trust, and female autonomy. The complicated
relationship between rock star Ben and psychology student
Lizzie plays out amid the trappings and hassles of fame,
and the involvement of friends and family. The Stage Dive
family -- made up of Ben's bandmates, their significant
others, as well as Lizzie's sister -- is such a fabulous
assortment of characters. The thing that I really like
about DEEP is that, although Ben is a famous musician, the
issues that come up in his relationship are ones that
could
come up in anybody's life.
DEEP is told strictly from Lizzie's POV. Having that
perspective helps create an affinity between the reader
and
that character. I ended up liking Lizzie a little more
than
I thought I would. Although she's in a difficult, and
often
emotionally draining, position she owns the decisions she
makes. I love that she calls Ben on his nonsense and
doesn't let anybody push her around. The sexiness and HEA
is there in DEEP but it is very much fought for by the
characters.
DEEP is equal parts fiery romance and emotional blowout --
both are equally satisfying. I love these characters and
loved seeing old favorites as well as new and interesting
ones making appearances. As great as they are, the
secondary characters never distract or take anything away
from Lizzie and Ben. I eagerly await the next book by
Kylie
Scott. If you're looking for characters you can fall in
love with, good dialogue, and a high heat factor, then
DEEP
by Kylie Scott is for you.
Don't miss a beat with the fourth and final novel in the
New
York Times and USA Today bestselling Stage Dive series
from
Kylie Scott.
One by one, the members of Stage Dive are falling in love.
David, Mal, and Jimmy have all taken the plunge, and now
it’s Ben’s turn—only he refuses to fall into that trap.
The
sexy bassist enjoys his no-strings-attached lifestyle. But
when Ben is forced to keep the one girl he's always had a
weakness for out of trouble in Sin City, he quickly
learns
that what happens in Vegas, doesn’t always stay there.
