Rocked Under by Cora Hawkes

Falling in love isn't always easy or pleasant. The intense and angst-filled story of Emma and Scott is a painful, gut-wrenching and exhausting portrayal of how hard it can be to let go...

Picking up the pieces and starting again in the US, Emma enrolls in college with her cousin, Ashley. She is finally free to do what she wants and live how she chooses, and no man will ever rule her decisions or emotions again.

That is, until Scott Mason walks on stage...

Intense bad boy Scott is the lead singer of a popular local rock band. A ladies’ man and Ashley's long-time friend, Scott holds an instant fascination for Emma — she finds herself drawn to him, even though he represents everything she hates and needs to stay away from in a guy. He treats females like he does a cigarette — light it, use it, and lose it. 

For her cousin's sake, Emma makes an effort to get along with Scott, but she soon discovers that there is more to him than first appears, making him even more dangerous in her eyes. Behind the facade of friendship, jealousy, obsession, fear and insecurity fester — an internal battle rages as she fights her attraction and does everything she can to stop history from repeating itself.

Rocked Under (Rocked #1) by Cora Hawkes
My Rating 3 out of 5

Bad boy rocker meets and falls for virginal British girl. More like British girl vs. Bad boy rocker. I really thought I was going to love this book not the case. Brit girl (Emma) annoyed me, Bad boy rocker (Scott) couldn't keep it in his pants even though he LOVED her. 

Too many mixed signals, miscommunications...whatever you want to call it. Chapter after chapter of drinking, dancing, staring at each other and going home with someone else. FINALLY in the last chapter things got better between them....closer to the last few pages. 

It just took too long for them to get together. I don't need instant gratification in the first chapter but I do need it by mid-book.
