Hyperventilating
Rock My World Series
Book One
by Tanith Davenport
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Erotic Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Amber Blake is fleeing a terrible betrayal in her past by touring with rock band Puppetmaster as a make-up artist with her best friend Elyse. Knowing the band is struggling, she hopes to use her make-up skills to reinvent their image, but when a member of the crew drops out, Amber finds herself asked to contribute in a different way – in the form of heated sexual conversations with hot lead singer Cassian Marsh to put him in top form before every concert.
Despite her past, Amber is unable to resist Cassian’s charm and raw energy, and enjoys knowing she can drive him wild with just her voice – but their increasingly passionate meetings leave her longing for more. Can she move past the betrayal she suffered – and can she convince a man as commitment-phobic as Cassian to break his no-dating rule and let her into his heart?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
The music changed to a darker, heavier track and Amber felt goosebumps rise on her skin. If You’re Cold. This was one of their best ones.
Watching Cassian perform was definitely the best part of her job. During the day she never allowed her gaze to linger on him—at night was a different matter. At night she could hide in the shadows, no longer having to deal with the masks they wore every day.
Cassian behind his mask was just so…real.
But she had had enough musician boyfriends to know getting involved with another would be a bad idea, even if the men of Puppetmaster hadn’t been perpetually unavailable. Nate’s relationship with Elyse was considered a blip. Cassian hadn’t had a girlfriend in years.
And Cassian, she knew, was well out of reach.
But, God, was he worth looking at.
His lean, muscular arms exposed by his leather waistcoat, his slim hips, the tattoos that decorated his taut stomach, tempting her to follow their lines with her tongue. The way his sweat glistened on his skin as he moved, catching her eye with every motion.
But Amber knew, even if it were possible, it would be a very, very bad idea.
And she had had enough bad ideas to last a lifetime.

GUEST POST:
Where I Find Inspiration
As a writer I can find inspiration in a lot of places – for instance, I’ve pulled a lot of ideas from dreams, as I dream very vividly and it lets me live through scenarios as though I was really there. I also, for some reason, tend to get new ideas while I’m driving, which means my husband is quite used to taking down notes and texting them to me so I don’t forget them. However, my main inspiration?
Music.
Almost everything I write has a soundtrack to it – I’ve often wanted to include a playlist with each story so I can ask my readers to play particular songs for specific scenes. Songs can add emotion and passion to scenes or provide backstory for characters; they can also provide titles, as they have done for several of my books already, such as Photograph and I Wish I’d Never Met You.
For Hyperventilating there were two main songs that inspired me – “Hyperventilating” by Peppercorn and “Good Sign” by Emilia. “Hyperventilating” gave me the emotional hook for Amber’s feelings towards my hero Cassian, how she loves to watch him perform and how it makes her feel. “Good Sign” is a happy, bouncy track which I pictured for the ending of the book – I won’t reveal how it ends, but I hope it’s appropriate!
Hyperventilating is the first book in the Rock My World series, and I plan to name every book in the series after a song; there’s just something about music, particularly rock, that provides the passion and heat that works for my writing.
I hope you enjoy it!
