ARC Review: Sweet as Sin (Bad Habit #1) by J.T. Geissinger



Book Blurb

Twentysomething Kat Reid is loving life as an in-demand Hollywood makeup artist. She has absolutely no interest in rock ’n’ roll, but in order to pay the mortgage, she agrees to work on the set of a rock video for the world-famous rockers known as Bad Habit…which brings her face-to-face with Nico Nyx, lead singer of Bad Habit and Adonis in the flesh.

However, the fiercely independent Kat isn’t impressed by the hard-living, womanizing rock star. But when Nico’s model girlfriend shows up to the set drunk and Kat is tapped to replace her as the video’s sexy bride, her combustible chemistry with Nico suddenly threatens to consume the set. Nico feels it, too—and becomes determined to win Kat over, body and soul. Yet behind his rock god swagger, Nico hides a dark secret. Can he rock Kat’s world forever, or will he just break her heart?

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala

Kat is a make-up artist working on a video shoot for the band Bad Habit. It has been rescheduled more than once and she is surprised to be working on Avery Kane. Then when lead singer Nico Nyx walks in Kat’s life is about to change. Avery is unable to do the shoot and Nico chooses Kat to fill in.

She had an instant attraction to Nico but is not going there. He is a superstar and she knew better. He tries to sway her but she continually tells him no. He keeps trying. Grace, one of Kat’s friends, believes he will keep at it because he doesn’t hear the word no.

Nico proves that he feels more for Kat, but he has to earn her trust. He is willing to do so. Kat takes a leap of faith and enters into a relationship. Both have a lot of baggage from their pasts and don’t know how to open up to each other. Nico’s life starts getting in the way. Avery causes problems and when Kat learns the truth, she is shocked. When Nico’s brother, Michael comes to town, he causes more problems. He has such hatred for Kat. Nico Panics and refuses to let Kat out of his sight. Kat doesn’t believe she is in as much danger as Nico fears. However everything blows up in her face and she has to sacrifice everything.

I loved this book. It drew me in immediately with Kat’s sassiness. She was a great character. She stood up for herself and refused to let Nico bully her. Their attraction was instant and strong. She reacted like she should have. It was fun to read how Nico convinced her.

The sex scenes were hot! The author wrote them well. Nothing like fanning yourself. They were explosive and then tender. The main characters were perfect for each other and I rooted for them.

The author created a fabulous story between two damaged people, one just happened to be a rock star. Nico’s secrets were huge and shocking. Kat’s were tragic and sad. Her guilt staying with her. However Nico wins hands down when it comes to troubled pasts. It made for an excellent story and deep love affair. This story was awesome. I give it a 5 out of 5.
