Waiting on Wednesday Rockaholic by CJ Skuse @CeejaytheAuthor @chickenhsebooks

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.


This week’s pre-publication “can’t-wait-to-read” selection is:

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 2012
She’s got it bad, and he ain’t good — he’s in her garage?

Gonna have to face it: Jody’s addicted to Jackson Gatlin, frontman of The Regulators, and after her best bud Mac scores tickets, she’s front and center at his sold-out concert. But when she gets mashed in the moshpit, loses her precious moon rock, and bodysurfs backstage, she ends up with more than a mild concussion to deal with. By the next morning, the strung-out rock star is coming down in her garage. Jody — oops — kind of kidnapped him. By accident. And now he doesn’t want to leave.

It’s a rock-star abduction worthy of an MTV reality series . . . but who got punk’d?!



About the Author

C.J. SKUSE loves graphic novels, ’80s sitcoms, Gummi Bears, My Chemical Romance, and malamutes. She hates omelettes, carnivals, and coughs. She has an MFA in Creative Writing from Bath Spa University in England. BCCB called her novel PRETTY BAD THINGS “a fast-paced action adventure [that] provides a subtle sociolgical study of the effects of living in a hyper-mediated culture”! ROCKOHOLIC is her second book.



Doesn’t this look like an awesome read?  Almost in time for Rocktober too!
