Strings, By Kendall Grey

WARNING: STRINGS is not suitable for slut shamers, uptight stone throwers, Holier-Than-Thou prudes, humorless virgins, persons with chronic neck or back pain, pearl-clutching bitties, those who disparage crude humor or vulgarity in their many forms, closed-minded people with sticks up their asses, or anyone under the age of 18. The vile, base language and shocking, unholy sexual acts contained herein are not condoned by anyone with a lick of sense and should certainly not be reproduced without proper training and protection. The potty-mouthed and perpetually horny "heroine" (the term is used loosely) of this book does not resemble a normal, well-adjusted, or remotely believable person in any way, shape, or form. The author acknowledges that the characters in this book are shallow and two-dimensional; the plot is both ridiculous and insipid. She makes no apologies for any of it.

* Readers are strongly advised to wear latex gloves whilst reading to minimize contamination risks.


Free-spirited musician Letty Dillinger adheres to a strict, "no strings attached" policy when it comes to men. After a wild night of unabashed sex in a fancy hotel room, she never expects to see the adventurous stud she dubs "Shades" again. When her all-girl rock trio books a tour at the last minute as the opening act for their archenemies, Letty's shocked to discover she knows the competition's new lead singer. Intimately. Shades is no longer a one-night stand. Now he's the guy she has to one-up on stage every night for the sake of her career.

Sharing close quarters on a bus with her sexy nemesis and his bad-boy buddies puts Letty's Golden Rule to the test. On this tour, guitar strings aren't the only things being played. And when heartstrings are pulled too hard, they're bound to snap sooner or later.




                So of course, with all the drama that is going on with this book, I just had to read it.  That and it has been crazy recommended to me by several friends!  And everyone who knows me, knows how easily I cave to the peer pressure, I read it last night.  I have completely mixed emotions about this book, and it’s not for the reasons that many of you may be thinking!

                Now while there were parts of this book that had me completely laughing out loud, I do have to admit that some of it was hilariously funny.  But the story behind the hilarious parts was just as good.  I really did enjoy the tension between Shades and Letty, and that was what kept me reading.  The tension between the two separate bands as well was interesting to say the least.

                I am all for the women who know what they want and take what they want, which is the type of character that Letty is, she knew she wanted to use that toy on Shades and boy did she let him have it!!  I enjoyed the secrets that Shades was hiding, and how it wasn’t just pushed on you all at once what was going on with him.

                Now I do have to say, I think at times it was almost as though Kendall was trying to make this book as crude as she could.  Especially with some of the scenes, but if you take that aspect out of it, the overall book was well written.  And honestly I can’t wait to read more into the series, which I hope there will be another book!
