Who Would Like This Book:
If you're into sizzling chemistry and forbidden romance, "Crashed Out" delivers all the steam! Fans of "older woman, younger man" dynamics will appreciate the refreshing twist, and Tessa Bailey’s trademark dirty talk is at its absolute best here. Sarge makes for a swoon-worthy hero - a rockstar with a heart of gold, relentless in his pursuit of love. Readers who enjoy small-town vibes, blue-collar heroines, and plenty of heat in their romance will likely get a kick out of this one.
Who May Not Like This Book:
Not everyone is here for the nonstop steam - some feel the story focuses a bit too much on sex at the expense of deeper relationship development. If you want a more evenly balanced story or nuanced character arcs, you may find Jasmine as the heroine less compelling. The age gap and past babysitter angle might feel icky or unrealistic for some, and a few readers questioned the plausibility of certain plot points and the heroine’s choices. Plus, if you’re tired of all the angst or over-the-top drama, this one might test your patience.

From The Publisher:
Jasmine Taveras is the reason Sarge Purcell grabbed his six-string and bailed the hell out of New Jersey four years ago. She's the fuel for every song he's ever written-each one laced with bitter, hard-edged, hungry lust. Now, with his hugely successful band on temporary hiatus, Sarge is determined to prove to Jasmine that this "kid" turned into every inch the man she's always needed...
Men are slim pickings for a single factory girl in Hook, New Jersey...until tall, broad-shouldered hotness walks-or rather storms-into Jasmine's life. Sarge's return shouldn't affect her this way. He's her best friend's much younger kid brother, and the kind of rough, gritty, sexiness Jasmine has no right to taste for herself. Even if he lets her.
But lust is a blinding, insatiable force. And when it crashes, it will take both Sarge and Jasmine down with it...
