Taming the Storm (The Storm #3) by Samantha Towle

Taming the Storm
After Tom Carter, part of the Mighty Storm band, saw his best friend Jake hurting when he thought he was loosing his girl, he made a promise to God to change his ways.
You, see Tom is a bit of a player and giving up easy women was not in his plans.

Lyla Summers has been hurt in the worse possible way. After being betrayed by the people she cared the most for she makes a vow of her own. Her life gets complicated when her band Vintage signs with TMS Records and their band manager can't come with them on tour.

Tom steps in as their new tour manager. This means she will be around him 24/7. He will travel with them and share the same bus.  Lyla wants to stay professional but their attraction is about to combust.

Lyla discovers that there is a different side of Tom that not many people are privy to.  He is not only funny but he is a good listener.

I loved Tom Cat from the first TMS book. His humor and loyalty as a friend was enough for me to want to read his own HEA. It did surprise me to know his softer side, his own turmoil, and I was happy to see that he could be responsible with the bands record company when needed.

Lyla was a little harder to like. She pushed Tom away more times than I wanted to read about but in the end she's the one who gets hurt and that tilted the axis.

I do have to say that even though I love Tom's story, Jake is still my favorite in this series.

Favorite Quotes:

“You’re such a guy.”
“I fucking hope so, Firecracker. With the size of my junk, I’d worry if I wasn’t.”


I would rather have a moment of everything with you than a lifetime of nothing.”

“You’re not a mut. You’re an ex-mut.”
“An ex-mut. I like it. Makes me sound badass.”


“That this is it…you and me…we’re forever. You’re my heaven, Firecracker.”

Synopsis


Lyla Summers hates men. Okay, maybe hate is a strong word … Lyla intensely dislikes men. Her father has let her down her whole life. Her brother betrayed her in the worst way possible. And her past relationship experiences with men have been less than great. Lyla is focussing all her energy into her band, Vintage, so when they receive an offer to sign with TMS Records, it seems that things are finally turning around for her. The last thing she wants is a man getting in the way. Tom Carter loves women. Okay, love might be pushing it … Tom enjoys screwing lots of women. When tragedy befalls his best friend, Tom finds himself making a promise to the big man upstairs – he’ll change his ways, if he saves the woman his best friend loves. Tom’s prayer is answered. Now he has to change. Which means no sleeping around. After Vintage’s manager breaks her leg skiing, Tom steps in as tour manager, and Lyla finds herself on tour with the man whore of rock. Put one perpetually horny Tom and one sex resistant Lyla together, equals a recipe for disaster. Or so you’d think… But an unexpected friendship is formed. A closeness neither of them expected. Putting one chastity belt and one lamp that is in desperate need of rubbing, to the test. Will the sex storm that is Tom Carter, finally find himself tamed by the rock chick with a hardened heart, or will he go back to his womanizing ways…?

READ THE BOOKS THAT STARTED IT ALL!
Book 1 - The Mighty Storm 

the mighty storm


It's been twelve years since Tru Bennett last saw Jake Wethers, her former best friend and boy she once loved.
Jake Wethers, sexy, tattooed and deliciously bad lead singer, and brains behind The Mighty Storm, one of the biggest bands in the world, left Tru with a broken heart when he moved from England to America with his family when they were both fourteen. Sent to interview Jake for her music column by the magazine she works for, they are both unprepared for the sparks that fly the instant they reconnect. Only, there’s a complication to their instant feelings for one another—Will, Tru’s boyfriend of two years. Then Jake makes Tru a job offer she can't refuse—travelling the world with him and his band. But taking the job means leaving Will behind, and being on the road with the band means spending an inordinate amount of time with Jake. Is Tru strong enough to resist the delectable bad boy who once held her heart so completely, or will she willingly risk it all for one night with the world's most notorious womanizer?

Book 2 - Wethering the Storm 

wethering the storm



Music journalist Tru Bennett has done the impossible: capture the heart of rock-star bad boy Jake Wethers. Now they’re busy planning a wedding and navigating their new life together in the US. Of course Tru misses London and her best friend, Simone, but living happily ever after with Jake in LA is going to be great…right? Wrong. Even the bright California sun can’t whitewash the dark side of celebrity coupledom. Greedy music execs, merciless paparazzi, and Jake’s wild past are lurking around every corner. Making matters worse, Jake announces he doesn’t want kids, which just may be a deal breaker. Tru loves Jake more than anything. But when a devastating crisis threatens to destroy everything they’ve fought for, the couple must face the hard truth: What if, this time, love is not enough?
