"Maid for the Rock Star" [Romance Island Resort Series, Book 1] by Demelza Carlton

Author's Book Description : A maid at the exclusive Romance Island Resort, Audra knows how to handle rock stars, billionaires and celebrities. She keeps their secrets, cleans up their mess and makes sure their holiday is a memorable one. There’s just one rule: no relationships with guests. And Audra never breaks the rules.

Jay Felix is rock royalty and he knows it. When one of his bandmates threatens to break up the band, he goes into hiding at the Romance Island Resort. Looking for a distraction, he sets his sights on the unattainable Audra. But what’s a rock star to do when the girl he wants is the one woman he can’t have?

Welcome to paradise, where the romance is as hot as the weather and the tides aren’t all that’s surging beneath the surface.

My Book Review : 2.5 out of 5 stars. A rock star decides to stay at a remote island Resort in Australia while coming to terms with being on a "farewell tour" at only the age of 25 years old. While there, he becomes enamored with his maid and tries to peruse her by any means necessary.

I tried to like this novel but I found Jason (Jay/the rock star) and Audra both hard to enjoy as main characters. Jay portrays a main who is self-centered and all about getting laid, it was hard to find any depth with him. Whereas Audra is poor, trying to find the self-control not to hook up with Jay so she won't lose her job, and allows her family and coworkers to steamroll over her. Together I thought they might have a nice friendship but it wasn't love. In addition, I'm not sure how they can have anything long-term because of Audra's career goals and how this novel ends.

In truth, I don't recommend it unless you're looking for a straight erotica without much romance.

"I've never flown in a helicopter before, so that makes two of us."
"I get to pop your cherry and someone else is paying for it? How do you feel about taking the scenic route, if it's your first time?"
She blushed. "You're the pilot. As long as we get to the airport in one piece and then back here with my patient, or whatever he is, the flight route's up to you." ~ within Chapter 27
She saved her brother's life. Why the fuck would he want anyone else watching out for him? ~ within Chapter 33
