Beauty and the Bassist

I've never had something this amazing before, and I'm terrified that I'm going to screw it up.Shane Beckstrom's punk band has been topping the charts, and he and his bandmates are sure they have it made—until a freak accident ends their success, killing their lead singer and rendering their lead guitarist too injured to play. Shane is the lone original bandmember to emerge unscathed—except for his severe concussion and the ghost of his best friend JT following him around, both of which make him doubt his sanity and his ability to ever play again.When Shane's agent convinces him to take over for JT as the emcee of the Miss California Poppy beauty pageant, he meets Allison Mendez, the pageant coordinator who has no patience for arrogant rock stars—especially when she's already dealing with catfighting beauty contestants with a penchant for overly-revealing swimwear.Despite Shane and Allison's bickering, the chemistry between them is undeniable. Allison needs to loosen up as much as Shane needs to get his act together—but will Shane's rapidly declining mental state get in the way of their happily ever after?Contains mature themes.
