[Smidge 02] • Rock God in Exile

“Tall enough. Toned arms with just the right amount of ink. Blond wavy hair. Oh, hell no.”

Is it overreacting to knock someone down for groping you? Nell Whelan is a black belt whose self-protective instincts kick in hard when she’s uncomfortable.

Then she arrives at her hated day job to find the handsome jerk from the pub kicking the photocopier, and finds out that he looks familiar because he’s the bass player from a famous rock band… but when she asks him what he’s doing working for her boss, he avoids answering.

Eamonn Yarrow — known to the rock world as “Easy” — hasn’t always been a good person and he’s reaping the consequences, but maybe Nell is just what he needs to turn his life around.

Is there someone worth knowing behind his arrogant stage persona?

Will she lower her guard for a disgraced rock god?
