Welcome to my stop on the Love Resolution Blog Tour!
This tour is being hosted by AToMR Tours; find the tour schedule here.
My stop includes my review and the tour giveaway. Series: Love Resolution (Black Cat Records #3)
Publisher: Michelle Mankin

To forgive or not to forgive…
There’s a storm brewing at Black Cat Records and lead singer Marcus Anthony and guitarist Avery Jones are at the center of it.
Brutal Strength is leaving Vancouver and heading out on a big stadium tour with the reprobate rockers from Tempest as their opening act.
Avery is forced to deal with a troubling figure from her past while being pursued by Tempest’s tatted bad boy, Bryan ‘Bullet’ Jackson.
Meanwhile, Marcus must battle his own internal demons as well as this rival for Avery’s affection.
Can Avery and Marcus keep their fairy tale happily ever after together when the prevailing winds of the real world are against them?
Love Resolution is the third book in the Black Cat Records series.
**A new adult contemporary novel with mature subject matter** Rock 'n Roll can break your heart.

So... Avery and Marcus have come a looooong way since the first book in the Black Cat Records series, Love Evolution. And it has been a true whirlwind. A match that started out under very misleading and awkward circumstances, somehow Avery and Marcus managed to get through all the nonsense, and are a phenomenal rock star couple. When the real world of touring, photo shoots and media crashes into their everyday life, Marcus and Avery will be forced to find out if the truly have what it takes to make their love last. Add into this a fellow rocker who's gunning for Avery's heart, and the outlook doesn't look good.

I have to say, this series just gets better and better. I didn't fall in love with Love Evolution, but I was interested in the characters, story and what would happen next. Love Revolution veered away from Marcus and Avery and focused on band mate JR and tour assistant Sam. There was also an unlikely, and really endearing love story about Sam's superstar sister Sara and rocker Chris Alex. I enjoyed those stories, but was definitely ready to have more Marcus and Avery. The author really puts these two through the wringer in Love Resolution. It was soooo hard to see these two go through so much, but this brought more authenticity to the relationship between two rock stars. Or so I would imagine. I will also point out that I think the author's writing is getting progressively stronger with each book in the series.

Love Resolution was emotionally trying, but in such a good way. I really, really loved how it ended, particularly for the main characters. But, I also love what's cookin' for another character in the series, and am excited to read his story in book four. With the way the series has improved over time, I can only imagine how hard Black Cat Records #4 will rock!


He put a hand over hers, stopping her before she opened it. "This isn't over," he said softly near her ear. "I'm getting you back in my life where you belong, and I'm giving you advance notice that I'm not gonna fight fair. Whatever it takes, that's what I'll do." Taking her gently by the shoulders, he turned her around and ghosted the pad of his calloused thumb down her jaw line. "You belong to me."   ~80%
