SCANDALOUS BEAT by Michelle Mankin: Cover Reveal & Teaser

Juaquin Acenado. 

A drummer. A rapper.  A rock king. 

My brother’s best friend. 

Arrogant. Forbidden. Do-not-go-there trouble. 

The sexy Latino was too old for me when we first met, and I was in high school. But he was my first love. I’ve never gotten over him. 

Miriam Jackson. 

Stripper.
Exotic dancer. Her Vegas stage name is Queen. 

My bandmate’s little sister. 

Spicy and sweet. The spark that fires my inspiration. The rhythm to my beat. 

She’s the one I imagine when I settle for the others. My ultimate fantasy. Only I can never have her. 

Until I arrive in Vegas to record my solo rap album, visit a strip club, and there she is. Miriam was supposed to be in college, but she’s not. She is so not. 

Sin City, a place where anything can happen, and I’m the only one in the band who knows her secret. 

So why resist anymore? 

Who could possibly stop me?

Love Evolution, Love Revolution, and Love Resolution are a BRUTAL STRENGTH centered trilogy, combining the plot underpinnings of Shakespeare with the drama, excitement, and indisputable sexiness of the rock ‘n roll industry. 

Things take a bit of an edgier, once upon a time turn with  the TEMPEST series. These pierced, tatted, and troubled Seattle rockers are young and on the cusp of making it big, but with serious obstacles to overcome that may prevent them from ever getting there. 

Rock stars, myths, and legends collide with paranormal romance in a totally mesmerizing way in the MAGIC series. 

Catch the perfect wave with irresistible surfers in the ROCK STARS, SURF AND SECOND CHANCES series.
