Book 4 of 5: Lightning Strikes

See all formats and editions

Downbeat |n|: The first beat in a measure, often the strongest.

Fame, fortune, traveling to different cities across the country…I’m living the dream. As the drummer for the Lightning Strikes, it’s my job to hook you in and keep you coming back for more. It’s my craft, my calling, what I’m a master at.

Even with all that, I’m still just a normal guy who wants to eat at food trucks and lounge on the couch, playing video games until I can’t see straight.

Everything was perfect.

At least I thought it was, until a blonde bombshell walked into my life and made me question everything I thought I knew.

I want her.
I need her.

Only, she’s afraid of the spotlight, afraid of what it’ll do to her and the ones she loves. The wall around her heart is keeping me out, but I know before long I will break down her barriers.

She needs to know that there is more to us than what she sees, that this chemistry between us is our downbeat to forever.

All the guys in the band have their happily ever after. Maybe it’s time for mine.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

A lover of all things happily ever after, Jodie Larson has always been a romantic at heart. Blame it on her sign, but Cancers are hopeless romantics. This is why her stories are filled with swoony moments and even swoonier men because the world could use a little more love.

Jodie lives along the shores of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota with her family, 3 dogs, 2 cats, and all the voices in her head. She began her writing career early, getting poems published in Seventh Grade, then moved on to writing Sweet Valley High fanfic in her spare time. Fast forward several years, and she finally got the courage to write her first novel, Fated to be Yours. In addition to the many stories rolling through her head, she's an avid reader and doesn't shy away from a good challenge.

Get Lost in the Lightning Strikes series however you can! Downbeat is the perfect conclusion to my favorite band

Reviewed in the United States on 26 July 2018

Wow! WOW!! Downbeat was everything the conclusion to your favorite series should be! Jodie Larson does not disappoint. I absolutely love the Lighting Strikes books - as a huge fan of Rockstar Romance, that shouldn’t surprise anyone - especially if you follow my blog. When Jodie Larson released the first book in the series, Serenading the Shadows, I was completely consumed by Adrienne's story and Jodie's storytelling abilities; and my admiration for her has grown with each book I’ve read that she releases. Over the last year and a half, since the release of Notes of the Past when I first discovered Jodie Larson and with each subsequent release in the series, I have found a reason to reread these books. Usually its before I am going to read the next release but its undeniable how much I loved Serenading the Shadows, Notes of the Past, Forbidden Lyrics and now Downbeat. There is just something about these books and the stories that Larson penned that I have found fulfilling. If you’ve read Jodie Larson’s work, I am sure you agree and if you’re new to her work, right now is as good a time as any to join her faithful followers!

With the release of Downbeat, the Lightning Strikes series has reached its conclusion and there is a huge part of me that is completely broken up about this. Honestly, I would have loved to see the series never end in the first place, but as they say, all good things must come to an end. That said, Downbeat is the absolute perfect ending to this series. Each book focuses on different members of the band, and they can all be read as complete standalones. Downbeat is Paxton’s story and while I cannot deny my eternal love for Kade, there was something about Pax that drew me in like bees to honey! I think Jodie Larson could make a snake sexy, as she’s exceedingly talented in writing heroes that are that perfect blend of uber sexy and devoted to the women they are paired with… Oh, and also important to note, Pax is as far from snakelike as you can get! (Spoiler Alert: I hate snakes!!!) He’s the good guy, the one that’s never been one to have long term relationships but isn’t a player like Myles (from NOTP) was either. He’s wholesome if I had to pick a word to describe him. And he sees Kylie and is done for! He immediately puts in the time and effort to show her he’s interested in more than just a one-time fling, he becomes her friend even while he’s falling for her… Tell me that wouldn’t win you over? It’s no wonder Kylie never stood a chance!!! Kylie is a single mother who’s been badly burned and is very hesitant to introduce a new person into her son’s life. As a mother, I really identified with Kylie’s actions and her fears and it made the story more realistic to me.

Downbeat has so much more to offer readers though that I haven’t even touched on. Jodie Larson writes a compelling romance that was set to the perfect pace. The story sweet and sexy but it’s also a slow burn romance that will have you on pins and needles. By the time Kylie gets Pax in her bed, you’ll be as hot and bothered as they were! I also loved that this story is told from both characters perspectives - I always feel like this lets us get to know the characters better. If you’ve read the other books in this series, you’ll enjoy catching up with the other members of the band. Oh, and Quinn is still as hysterical as she was in the previous books! So, what are you waiting for?! Get your hands on a copy of Downbeat and get to reading!!!

Amazing End!

I am thrilled to have read this series. I feel as if I have spent time with friends. I want to be part of this amazing group of young people. I will remember this story for a long time. This series will become part of the books I place in my special little paperback library. I have spent the past couple weeks binge reading this series and I will read it again. I loved this story as it had a mystery component making it different from the previous books. I loved each of the characters and loved getting that little look into the lives of the secondary characters. I would say that I especially loved the little guy Jodie presented. This was exactly the man to pair with this little guy. I would also say that these new characters will also find an amazing amount of love from the family they will certainly become integrated with. As I finish this review I want to also say that I feel that this series is not yet complete. I know the author says at the end of the book that it has ended but as a new reader having binge read all of the books I do not feel it is over. These men are rockers but they are also each becoming family men. I would love to see one final book with all of them being integrated into the mix. I would love to see them needing to make a decision to settle down having completed one dream and now creating a new dream in one place. I see these folks settling in an area together and I want to read that book. I really feel this author needs to see this series home to do them each justice. This is just my humble opinion and I am curious if her readers have mentioned this to her. Just saying. Another big thank you for this book being in paperback. Always need to acknowledge this. Great job, and please think about that final sequel. denise bailey

Rockstar Romance? Heck Yeah!

Reviewed in the United States on 26 July 2018

Rockstar Romance? Heck Yeah! Single Parent? Yes Please! Jodie Larson just delivered a super sweet, feely and swoon worthy story!

The characters are inviting and created with passion. The story line is intriguing, leaving you entertained until the very end.

Paxton had me from hello because well Rockstar drummer, duh! But he’s actually so much more than that. He’s sweet and kind, looking for love and happiness just like all his band mates have already found. When he catches sight of Kylie he’s on a mission to learn more about her and win over her heart.

Kylie is a sweet single mom who’s had her heart broken in the past. She’s very guarded to protect not only herself but her sweet little boy. She’s been through so much and only wants what’s best for her son.

Will these two find common ground for a relationship? Will love win when they live two completely different lives?
Read to find out what happens!! Must Read!!

Congratulations Jodie on this sweet story!!!

This is a great series

I love this series. Each couple has such a great story it’s hard to pick a favorite. Paxton is the odd man out as all of his band mates are paired up with the loves of their lives and starting families. Then he meets Kylie and he knows it’s his turn but the single mom has been burned before and has walls built high. Paxton knocks them down quickly and this adorable couple and a awesome 5 year old get the happily ever after they deserve.

I love this series!

I did not think it was possible to fall anymore in love with this series and the Lightning Strikes boys, but I was wrong. Jodi saved the best for last with this one. Pax is so sweet and selfless, not the typical bad boy drummer you would expect. Kylie has her own set of issues to work through and Pax is just the one to heal her heart! This is a must read! Loved it!
