There was a soft knock before Kira’s father entered the room carrying a large floral arrangement. He set it down on a table near the window wearing a smile. “Are you well, sweetheart?”
“Yes, Daddy. I’m fine.”
“You have a room filled with people who want to offer their regards in person, but I told everyone, including your sister, that they needed to wait. I wanted to be the first one to meet my new grandchildren.” He placed a loving kiss on Kira’s forehead. “Congratulations, sweetheart.” He peered at the little girl in her arms. “Hello, my beautiful granddaughter.”
“Daddy, this is Bella. Bella, meet your grandfather. He’s the most amazing man in the world. Besides your father,” she added with a teasing smile.
“Bella. That’s a fitting name for such a stunning little girl.” Kira’s father tickled the baby’s chin, and she cooed. He walked over to Brett and squeezed his shoulder. Congratulations, young man.” Then his eyes dropped to the baby boy in Brett’s arms. “Hello there, grandson. You’re a handsome boy. I see you’ve inherited the strong Abelman jawline. What’s your name?”
Brett caught Kira’s eye to see if she wanted to tell her father the baby’s name, but she nodded that he should do it. “Ron, meet your grandson, Ronnie.”

What to Read Next:
Radical Rock Stars Next Generation
The progeny of legendary punk rock band Immortal Angel brings you an enemies-to-lovers and friends-to-lovers duet.
LUCAS BLADE, Duet Book 1
He’s the son of guitar legend, Tommy Blade. He’s smart. He’s gorgeous. He’s talented beyond belief. He’s perfect. And he knows it. He’s also giving me the opportunity of a lifetime. He’s trying to teach me his wisdom, but I just want to play music. He’s so damn confident and self-assured it makes me crazy. He’s also breaking through all of my barriers.
She’s a spitfire. She’s got a smart mouth and an answer for everything. I’m trying to help her, but she’s fighting me every step of the way. She challenges me, something no one has ever done before. I can’t stand her, but I can’t stop thinking about her, either.
Lucas Blade was born into a world of extravagance.
Sindy Cavanaugh can barely afford to pay for necessities.
He has a close and loving family who support him.
She has dysfunctional parents who only call her for money.
Their backgrounds couldn’t be more different, but music brought them together.
From the moment they meet, they challenge one another with defiant attitudes and oversized egos, and their constant arguing disrupts rehearsals. They come to realize that the turbulence between them is really only a guise for suppressed passion. With their band about to go mainstream, they need to figure out if they should put their feelings on hold or risk everything they’ve worked toward.
MASON WILDER, Duet Book 2
She’s my best friend’s little sister. She’s off limits. She’s Tessa Blade Garcia, a girl who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to go after it. And now she’s after me.
Everything in my life has had a predetermined path. The success of the band had to come first. I’ve put my feelings on hold long enough. The time is finally right. Mason Wilder is America’s most eligible rock star. Now, I’m going to make him mine.
I’ve known her since the day she was born, but it’s taken me 22 years to realize how much I love her. Just when everything seems perfect, my world gets turned upside down, and I need to take sides between people I’ve loved and trusted my entire life, and someone I never thought I’d see again.
Sample: LUCAS BLADE, Radical Rock Stars Next Generation Duet Book 1
Lucas slowly rolled onto the bed and stared up at the ceiling, wearing a beautiful smile. Not a cocky grin or a teasing smirk. Just a happy, beautiful smile that made his face light up and enhanced his handsome features.
It was so easy to see why she fell for him when he was like this. But, as the euphoria dissipated, reality and rationality invaded Sindy’s brain. What was she doing? What the hell was wrong with her? Since when did she have such little self-control over physical desire? And with Tessa right down the hall, she was pushing boundaries too far. She was too smart to be this stupid and slipped out of Lucas’ bed to quietly pick up her clothing.
“Where are you going?”
“Shh. I have to get back to Tessa’s room before she wakes up and notices I’m not there.”
“Why don’t you want her to know we’re sleeping together?”
“Be quiet,” she whispered. “Because we’re bandmates about to embark on a career. And you’re Tessa’s brother. And she’s my best friend. And we’re not sleeping together.”
He gave her a sly smile as his eyes washed over her body. “No?”
“No.” Why was she standing there, naked, having a conversation with him? This was ridiculous. She stepped into her panties and her shorts and pulled the tank top over her head.
“My sister likes you. She’s never liked anyone I dated. She’ll be happy we’re together.”
“No. She won’t. She’s protective of those she loves, and she’s not going to let anyone interfere with the success of Prodigy. And we’re not together, so stop saying that.”
“It’s not that big of a deal. You’re blowing this out of proportion.”
She closed her eyes and exhaled a deep breath. This was too complicated. “For once in my life, I want no drama.”
“You got drama, baby. Like it or not, you can’t stay away from me. And I can’t stay away from you.”
She scowled at him, angered by his assumption that she found him irresistible. He got her so worked up she could scream. She lunged at him and grabbed his face in her hands and kissed him, harder than expected. She hadn’t planned on kissing him. She wanted to shake some sense into him, but the moment her hands touched his stubbled cheeks her hormones jumped to attention. She kissed him deeply, with so much passion that she wondered where it came from. When she pulled back, he had a wide grin on his face.
“Told you.”
He was such a smart ass. It equally annoyed her and made her smile. “Knock it off. I’m going back to Tessa’s room.” She reached for the door handle, paused, and looked back at Lucas. “This didn’t happen.”
“If you say so.” His coy smile widened. “And it won’t happen again next time, either.”
She snorted and laughed. “You’re ridiculous.”
“Maybe. But you know I’m right. Because there will be a next time. And a time after that. And a time after that.”
Sample: MASON WILDER, Duet Book 2
“In my mind, you were always Lucas’ little sister. I never had that eye opening she-turned-into-a-woman moment, until you put that seed in my brain. It was as if a curtain was lifted and the opacity was gone. In an instant, you turned into this voluptuous, gorgeous woman that I couldn’t resist. That I wanted. That stirred things inside of me that weren’t there before. I see it all clearly now. Me and you. A drummer and a bassist. We come from the same background. We have the same goals. Our sights are set on the same things. What two people share a better connection than us? You were meant to be in my life.” He paused and his expression deflated a little. “My life could have been very different. I could have never known my father. Never known you. Or Lucas. Or any of the Immortal Angel family. I believe I was brought here for a reason. Fate. Fate brought me to you. I love you Tessa Blade Garcia.”
She’d waited a lifetime to hear those three little words. They were overwhelming. She had always envisioned her reaction to be one of over-the-top elation. Jump-up-and-down hysteria. But Mason’s heartfelt revelation left her exhausted with relief, and she just wanted to feel him in her arms. “Kiss me,” she breathed.
His eyes dropped to her lips, and he pulled her closer. His mouth met hers with so mu
ch heat she thought she would combust. His mouth was warm and fiery. His lips were fleshy and soft. Gentle. His hands pressed against her back and held her to him, possessively. It was as if every pore in her body woke from a drunken slumber. As if they were waiting, dormant, for Mason to touch her. In a very real sense, they were. Her nerve endings were pulsing. Her heart was thundering. Nothing had prepared her for this moment. A million fantasies couldn’t conjure up the rampage of feelings spiraling inside of her. This was really happening. She was kissing the man of her dreams. Right now. It wasn’t a fantasy or her imagination, Mason loved her. He finally realized they were supposed to be together.
When their lips slowly parted, she said the words she’d practiced in her head for so long. Only this time she knew they would be returned. “I love you, Mason.”
“I love you, Tessa.”
The words finally registered, and tears sprung to her eyes while a quivering smile spread across her face. “You love me?”
“I had an epiphany. Everything cleared. Like I had my head in the sand and someone yanked it out and I could see the light of day for the first time. I always said I wasn’t interested in settling down or having a steady girlfriend because I was too involved with my music. People thought I was a player. You saw all the headlines, but you knew they weren’t true. Anyone who knew me knew I wasn’t like that. Now I realize that I never wanted anyone because it was you. I always said it was the music, but it was you. All along it was you. It was always you.”
