Review: Rock the Band (Black Falcon 1.5) by Michelle Valentine

4.5 Review
If you haven’t read, Rock the Heart, you must read it first!

Goodreads Summary:
After Noel Falcon professed his love to the one girl who truly holds his heart in the palm of her hand, he decides to try his damndest to keep Lane Vance in his life forever this time. There’s no way he’ll let her slip through his fingers again without a fight.
The instant they are together Noel begins to plot a way to ask his headstrong lady-love to be his wife, but every attempt to pop the question is foiled by a string of mishaps that prevents him from the perfect moment to get the job done before he goes back on tour with Black Falcon.
Distance is a bigger challenge than Noel expects, and the one-eyed beast of jealous raises its ugly head when Lane takes on a job working on an ad campaign for Embrace the Darkness. With Striker—a man that’s made it clear in the past he’s very interested in more then her business sense—lurking around her constantly, Noel wants to claim Lane now, more than ever.
ROCK THE BAND is a 27,000 word novella from the Black Falcon Series(less)

My Thoughts:
I truly love Noel Flacon.  There is a whole new dimension to him in this book.  I felt as if I was learning more about him each second I read.  We know from book one that he has a womanizing past.  He was clouded and put through the ringer with Sophie and came so very close to losing Lane forever.  In Rock the Band, Noel comes to terms with wanting Lane for the rest of his life, but how to get that is the question. 

I loved hearing from Noel’s POV.  His thoughts, emotions and jealousies were gripping!
 The continued banter between Noel and Lane sucks you in! 

She resurfaced, fighting mad.  “You’re such an asshole!”  I laughed as she splashed water in my face again.  “So you keep telling me, but I know that’s just another way of you saying you love me.”  She rolled her eyes, and I knew I was right.

LOVE IT!!  Knowing they love each other even after all the crap they went through was heartwarming!  The term ‘defying the odds’ came to mind while reading.   Oh, and speaking of heartwarming, I freaking LOVED how Noel took care of Lane.  OH. MY.GOD. My heart grew so much from that section of the book!

The passion between Noel and Lane is still intense!  Michelle did an awesome job writing the scenes between them.  I felt the ‘realness’ in them.  The emotion was totally there!  I LOVED how they had to get ‘creative’!  YUMMY!!!! 

Even though this was a novella, we get a whole actual story. It’s filled with want, need, lust, love, jealousy, anger, hope, romance, fulfillment and much more!  That is what I love!

The only issue I had with it, was it was too short!!!!!!! I WANT MORE!!!!!!!!   I cannot wait to hear Riff’s story and lick the Oreos!

Overall, fantastic read!  If you are a Falcon fan, it is a MUST READ!
