Bianca Sommerland’s Backlash is a fabulous start to another great series, Winter’s Wrath. Lead guitarist of the band Winter’s Wrath, Alder Trousseau, is at odds with their lead singer/his brother, Braver. The drama is tearing the band apart. This contemporary romance is suitable for adult audiences.
Bianca Sommerland does a phenomenal job with her character development. The Trousseau brothers have some issue steaming back to their family. Braver comes off as a jerk but there is more going on with him then what is going on at the surface. I like Alder. He is a caring man. He is open-minded and smart. I love their roadie, Jesse. He cares about the guys and looks out for their well being. The dynamics between Alder, Brave, and Jesse was fascinating. Danica Tallien is a strong heroine. I enjoyed how her and Alder met, and how that was tied into the story. Winter’s Wrath’s manager, Zach Cole, is a piece of work. He does help make the story interesting. I also, enjoyed the rest of the band and look forward to discovering more about their characters in future books.
I enjoyed the plot. It seemed very believable. I love the scene where Danica was hanging out with the authors at the concert. I could totally picture Bianca Sommerland there. I like the contrast and similarities throughout the story: Danica’ upbringing vs, Alder/Brave; Danica’s manager versus Winter’s Wrath. Both managers are intense, but I would take Danica’s manager over Zach any day. I appreciated Danica’s friendship with Jesse. I love how the story evolves. The dynamics throughout the book were captivating. There was a little of everything in the story: drama, mystery, thrills, crime, humor, entertainment, and romance. I cannot wait for the next book.
