BOOK REVIEW
Sid is the drummer of the underdogs. With his spiky mohawk and tattoos he comes across as a tough guy. Underneath the scary exterior, he craves pain and submission.
Asher is nicknamed Stan by the Underdogs because he has been a fan and follows them around. This is because he is attracted to Sid.
But Sid won't give him the time of day. Until Sid inadvertently blurts out his secret yearning and Asher is quick to show him that he can become the sadistic dominant that Sid needs.
The question becomes, will Sid allow Asher into his heart?
Now, this story is more my fare than the first book of the series. There was emotional and sexual tension right from the start and throughout the story. And I absolutely loved it.
I have to say I was totally Team Asher on this one. From the previous book, he was made out to be some random person stalking the Underdogs. Meanwhile he was promoting the band, which they were lapping up. I think they treated him unfairly, considering him and Sid had a thing in the past.
So I was totally on board with Asher dishing out pain which Sid totally loved, BTW. Win-win, for everyone.
And I should add a warning here. The BDSM scenes are kind of hardcore and focuses on sadism/masochism. If pain is not your thing, you can still skip those scenes and still enjoy this book. There are other things going on to keeping you reading including religious cults and rescue missions.
So easy to recommend this one.
See my review of the first book of the series - Manic Pixie Dream Boy.

BLURB
---. Whips and chains - not optional .---
Sid. Drummer for The Underdogs. Secretly yearning for pain and submission.
Asher. AKA Stan. Stalker. More than meets the eye.
It’s hard to find good hookups while on tour. Sid wants pain, humiliation, and the kind of sex that isn’t easy to get from one-night stands. So for now, he’s given up, settled for an online Dom to get his rocks off, and focused on his band instead. The Underdogs are getting increasingly popular, but there is one fan who has followed Sid since before he even joined the band, and he’s driving Sid mad! Rich, spoiled hipster brat looking for the bad boy experience. If he knew what Sid was really into, he would run for the hills.
Asher is convinced that Sid is The One, his One True Love, his endgame. Years ago, Asher lost his virginity to Sid, and from that moment on, he knew it was meant to be. They had a spark, that honest connection that couldn’t be faked. The members of Sid’s band call him a stalker, but all he wants is to offer Sid his love. When Sid finally chokes out what he wants, Asher is more than ready to unleash it on him.
But the last time Sid was out as gay and submissive, he got badly burnt when his former band kicked him out, and the doors to many opportunities slammed in his face.
Asher wants the whole world to know that he’s dating Sid. Problem is, Sid would much rather keep the relationship as pain-with-benefits.
