Three reasons you should read this Rockstar Romance:
- Addicted to Rhapsody by Selena Laurence takes a far more serious look at sex addition than many other books I’ve read and it was great to see the issue get the respect it needs.
- The weight of guilt on both Savvy and Garrett was tangible. And their struggle to overcome it was amazing.
- Savvy and Garret’s relationship wasn’t one of fairy tales and fantasies. It was very real, and that made it even better.

Guilt is the hardest habit to kick.
Garrett Jakes is the sexy and sex-addicted lead singer of Rhapsody. Now in recovery, he’s trying to clean up his act and atone for his mistakes. The only problem is he can’t stop the guilt he feels whenever he looks at his friend Savvy. They have history, and he’s not sure if he’s helping or hurting when he tries to become a bigger part of her life.
Savvy O’Roark is a widow and a mom at twenty-eight. She watched as her husband was murdered while trying to protect her. Now she’s struggling to keep her husband’s business and his memory alive, and Garrett wants to help. The only problem is she can’t stop the guilt she feels whenever she looks at him. Their history is one that haunts her, and she’s not sure that’s something she can ever get past.
As Savvy and Garrett struggle to overcome their demons, they must also face the one thing neither of them can ever take back. Will they learn how to honor and forgive, but also love and let go? Can something that started all wrong end up right? Or will guilt be a habit they simply can’t kick?
My Review of Addicted to Rhapsody:
Addicted to Rhapsody by Selena Laurence was a very different sort of rockstar romance. We definitely have a rockstar with Garrett, but the meat of this story is outside of the rock world, and instead takes us to Portland, where Garrett is recovering from addition.
His addiction isn’t drugs or alcohol. He’s addicted to sex, and he’s trying everything he can to beat it. He’s making amazing progress, but along the way he seems to fall more and more in love with Savvy. Savvy has a connection to the band, but she is living her own struggle, and as much as Garrett wants to help, he’s not sure he’s ever going to be good enough for her.
Savvy shares Garrett’s feelings, but for different reasons. She’s doing everything she can to keep her husband’s memory alive in his business, but it seems overwhelming and too much. And should she really be falling for someone when she’s still mourning her husband?
These two made me cry. They both had so much going on in their lives and often struggled to just make it through. But they needed to realize that working as a team made them both so much stronger. The guilt was a whole other issue, and it might just take the whole community and band to help them move on.
