Rock Courtship by Nalini Singh Book Review:
I was suggested the book by a friend who had read it and loved it so much that she was all praise.
Things I Liked:
Cover and Plot:
There is drama, intense emotional scenes, a fluid narration and sex scenes that are almost erotic. The story is well conceived and executed. The flow is maintained throughout the book and the dialogues well written to bring out the emotional turbulence faced by the protagonists.
Intimate Scenes:
I was a bit uncomfortable with the sex scenes which are too many but the author is able to use them as a means of showing emotions and takes them a bit higher than just sex to love making. So I won’t complain too much here. David and Thea, together are explosive, sensuous and burn the whole atmosphere with the intensity of their feelings for each other.
Characterization:
The characterization is noteworthy. I felt empathetic towards David who is hopelessly in love with Thea but always rejected by her. I rooted for him and was impressed by his perseverance and strength. He is truly the Gentleman of Rock and when he did play dirty, he was too sweet and left me giddy with pleasure like a love struck teenager. 🙂
The idea of sending memos is totally new and made me love the story more. I enjoyed reading the memos and loved the interchange between David and Thea. The last memo was specially sweet and I applaud the author for thinking of such an idea.
Thea made me feel angry at first. I felt she was being unduly stupid by letting David go but then when all the reasons of her abstinence from committing came out, I felt sorry for her and prayed that she take a risk with David. The band members are also introduced in this book and the strong bond of friendship, trust and love is shown admirably among them. I loved David’s and Thea’s family who are loving, sometimes interfering and always very supportive of them. Both Thea and David’s parents have seen many hard times and through effort got a love that is the forever kind. Their stories of finding love touched my heart and made me appreciative of all the love that I have in my life.
I loved Thea’s mother the most. She is strong, wise and knows Thea too well.
This below quote that Thea’s mother said specially stayed with me.
"Love has many guises, Thea…but it must be nurtured. You can't kick a heart and expect it not to flinch."- #BookQuote Rock Courtship by @nalinisingh & #BookReview on #NjkinnysBlog Share on X "Whatever life throws at you, know that it's the universe testing you to see how committed you are.”-#BookQuote Rock Courtship by @nalinisingh & #BookReview on #NjkinnysBlog Share on XConclusion:
Nalini Singh is a talented writer and she shows her prowess beautifully in this book. She paints a shiny world of music with parties, groupies, one night stands and then compares the people that inhabit this world to their true selves. Despite being in the limelight and appearing carefree, most are hiding deep hurts, secrets and a personality worlds apart from their ever smiling public face.
All in all, this was a book that kept me hooked, made me laugh and feel too happy and eager to start on the other books in the Rock Kiss series by Nalini Singh. 4.5 out of 5 stars to Rock Courtship and Njkinny Recommends it to all lovers of romance above the age of eighteen. I will be checking out the other books by Nalini and wish her the very best.
