five-stars

Nikki’s the flamboyant rhythm guitarist of the hard rock band Oblivion. He’s a sexy rock star man-whore who’s accustomed to a life of music, partying and a constant stream of girls that are ready, willing and able!
Trixie’s a feisty party girl who likes to have fun. She makes the most of her single lifestyle and happy-go-lucky attitude. But she’s also a hard-nosed business woman who knows what she wants and goes out and gets it. She lives her life by the motto ‘Work hard. Play hard’.
Neither of them ‘do relationships’. But when their frequent hook-ups start to develop into something more they realize that the connection and pull between them is undeniable. The prospect of wanting more than just mind-blowing sex from each other is a total shock to both of them and it hits them like a bolt from the blue.
Can they change their partying ways and give in to the irresistible chemistry that sizzles between them? Do they even want to? And will their past catch up with them to prevent them from giving the whole relationship thing a proper try?
Warning: This story is a rock star erotic romance. It contains hot rock stars, sizzling sexual encounters and language that you would expect from heavy rock musicians used to a life of sex, booze and rock and roll.
Bolt From The Blue contains graphic sex scenes and is strictly 18+ only.
This novel is Book 2 in the 'Oblivion On Tour' series. Each book in the series follows a different band member and their quests for love. Bolt From The Blue can be read as a stand-alone, but if you plan on reading the entire series, it would be best to read Heaven Sent (Book 1) first.

My Review

Summary

Nikki’s is one of the guitarist for the band “Oblivion”. He and the other members of the band have been together since they were kids. He is used to the attention, the women and the life of partying night after night, and loves every moment of it. Trixie loves to enjoy a good party, she runs a club, and is very successful at it. She lives her life with a certain code “Work Hard, Play Hard”. She knows how to have a good time, and Nikki is just the man to give her that good time. But what starts out as slow flirtation and hot sex, turns into something even more. Trixie doesn’t trust men, and refuses to let herself have a relationship. but Nikki, isn’t one to curl his tail and turn the other way, when he wants something he goes after it. They start to develop a bond that goes deeper than just mind-blowing sex, and neither of them have any idea where their relationship is going to lead, but love is just around the corner if they let it happen.

The Hero

Nikki, is one sexy beat of a band player. My oh my….would I ever have mind-blowing sex with that man. With his motorcycle, talented hands, and he knows how to give a gal a swell time. Even though Nikki is on the surface, a player, loves his women and drinking, he also has had some tough challenges in his life. He has had to battle drugs, and misses his family. But his music is more important than anything. Nikki is driven and devoted to his band and the music they play, and the friendship that has never faltered. He is energetic and definitely can get creative. A charmer of the first order, but one that is irresistible.

The Heroine

Trixie refuses to enter into a relationship, until things really heat up between herself and Nikki. Trixie when she was younger, got burned, and ever since then refuses to look back. She knows that she needs to be able trust herself, and when she starts sleeping with Nikki, she knows that she is in danger. Trixie was flirty and fun, she isn’t afraid to jump into bed with a sexy man, and has attitude. She doesn’t hide her intentions, and she doesn’t play games. She is true to her character. She had a refreshing quality that brings to the story a light view.

Plot and Story Line

This plot is quite fun, and I have really started to get into rock band romances, and this story was quite a adventure. I loved the voice of Tania Sparks, and this story just made it up my list of rock band romances. Someday I would love a chance to read the first book, but I felt like as your reading this, you don’t necessarily have to. All you need is a comfortable place to sit, and some peace and quiet to fully get into this story. IN the beginning of this romance, their romance is all about fun, partying and lots of sex. They definitely know how to heat it up in the bedroom. No problems there…what you see that they need to work on is the emotional portion of their relationship. Both of them aren’t looking for anything serious, and sometimes you get what you don’t want, but what you need. It definitely has aspects of the story that are engaging, energetic and sweet. It could be a bit predictable a couple of times, but honestly it was one hell of romance that I fell head heels in love with.

Cover

This cover is so gorgeous, and I love the bold colors…it goes with the characters in the story. Those abs…hot mama….yummy.

Overall View

Bolt From The Blue is an exciting contemporary romance, with a sexy musician, a fun heroine, and a story that keeps you enthralled from beginning to end. A must read for contemporary romance lovers.

Q&A With Tania Sparks

Q&A with Tania Sparks

Tell us about you

The first thing you need to know about me is that I genuinely believe in true love and soul mates. I met my wonderful husband when we were still at school. I was sixteen, he was seventeen, we are high school sweethearts. Now more than twenty five years later, we are still very much in love and are happily married with two beautiful children. We live in picturesque New Zealand and I consider ourselves lucky to live in this magnificent part of the world.

I do have a full time job, but in my spare minutes I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, reading and of course my other major ‘hobby’ is writing steamy rock star erotic romances!

What books do you write?

My Oblivion on Tour Series follows the five band members of the hard rock group Oblivion. Each book in the series follows a different band member and their quest for love.

Book 1 – Heaven Sent – Ash and Eve’s story

Book 2 – Bolt From The Blue – Nikki and Trixie’s story

Books 3, 4 & 5 will each tell Cody, Scott and Hansen’s stories.

What are your books about?

Hot sexy rock stars and the girls that steal their hearts!

What’s the best thing about being an author?

Doing something that you love! Also, it’s a real thrill when others enjoy what you write. Writing is a very solitary thing, but sharing it with others is incredible.

How do you get inspired to write?

I listen to a lot of music which inspires me heaps, but the main thing that inspires me is the characters themselves. They are constantly in my head just dying to tell me their story.

How do you write?

Although I’m a definite planner with everything else, I tend to write by the seat of my pants – the characters talk to me and tell me their story. I tend to have a general idea where the story is going to go, but the actual story and details change as I start to write.

When do you write?

In every spare minute I can grab! I try to write every day. I get up at 5am most mornings so I can squeeze in an hour or two before my family get up and we all have to head off for the day. If I’m not busy at work I try to fit in a few minutes here and there. I also try to write some evenings but the majority of my writing is done on weekends.

What made you sit down and decide to write something?

I started writing in early 2014. After spending many years writing business documentation, and constantly being inspired by numerous romance novels, I decided to try my hand at fictional writing. After penning my first scene I discovered that I enjoyed it immensely and so resolved to continue with the rest of the story that was swirling in my imagination. That story resulted in my first novel, Heaven Sent .

Do you aim for a set amount of words per day?

Although the stories I write are not planned in any major way – everything else is planned, scheduled and organised to meticulous detail – including how many words I need to write each day to reach my targets. I aim for ten thousand words a week.

What advice would you give to your younger self?

Just do it. Don’t wait. Start now!

I waited so long before I discovered how much enjoyment and pleasure I get from writing. I wish I’d started earlier but I guess that means I’m just going to have to write faster to make up for lost time!

What do Oblivion sound like?

Hard, heavy and as hot as hell! I have a number of bands that inspire my imagination including Like A Storm, Hinder, Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, Shihad, Royal Blood and Chevelle.

What do you like to read and who are your favorite authors?

I’m an avid reader and tend to chomp through a large volume of books, mainly in the romance genre. I have so many favorite authors and I definitely couldn’t mention them all here, but the list includes SC Stephens, K Bromberg, Jodi Ellen Malpas, Sylvia Day, Chloe Cox and Olivia Cunning. Whenever any of these amazing ladies release a book it’s an instant one-click for me!

What is your favorite motivational phrase?

I have a million phrases and quotes that motivate me, in fact my desk and walls are covered in them, but my current favorite is:

“What you to today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it.”
