Margot Duke can’t keep her long-distance relationship alive any more than she can the cells that are supposed to be taking center stage in her PhD thesis. Both seem to be suffering an inexplicably long and drawn-out death, and she’s spent more than enough time fretting about it, without any solution in sight.

It figures that the one day she chooses to pack it all in and stop caring is the day she meets Jonathan Young.

Jonathan swings through town with his band, just long enough to knock Margot off her feet, and leave her feeling a little giddy in his wake. The encounter proves once and for all that her inter-continental love affair is over, but can she really stomach the idea of starting another one right on its heels? And with the darling of the indie rock world at that?

Margot Duke considered herself to be a superfan of the band, Paperclouds.  When she finds out that they will be playing in Bonn, she recruits some co-workers to go with her to check out the show. 

To her amazement, the beautiful man that she watched with hungry eyes as he was setting up for the band wasn’t just a roadie – but Paperclouds’ lead singer – Jonathan Young.  Their attraction is instant and overpowering.  He’s only there for one night and she has to go back to her reality, so they have to walk away. But there is something about Jonathan that haunts her day and night.
Please, Margot. Please.

Meet me in Belgium.

Let me touch you.

J.
They begin a hot transatlantic love affair that sends her into a tailspin.  She tries to convince herself that when their passion wanes, she will be able to walk away and not get hurt.   And now that Jonathan and his band are on the verge of superstardom – that time may come sooner than she ever dreamed.
I had flung my heart at him recklessly, ignoring all of my better instincts, and he had thrown his back at me. But was it realistic to expect us to carry one another’s heart around while we were on opposite sides of the globe? A small part of me couldn’t help but wonder how he could possibly take proper care of mine while he was busy fending off the advances of his newfound admirers.
The Music of Temptation is another wickedly fun book by Verity Jacobs!  She continues to delight with her signature brainy heroines and super swoony heroes.  I have to admit that Jonathan is my favourite so far.  He is the most perfect combination of sultry and sweet. After all, wouldn’t you want a seriously sexy rock star to write songs about you? 

I’m thinking of packing up and hitting the road with the band…

Exclusive Excerpt - 

“Hi,” Jonathan said, the timbre of his voice running up and down my body like fingertips on silk. “It’s nice to meet you all.”

I looked over at him and felt my desire bloom inside again. His smile was suddenly open and easy, his eyes twinkling under that fabulous mess of dark hair. I felt the entire table fall under his spell with a dull thud.

“So you’re in a band?” Tek squawked skittishly.

See the alpha male go all fanboy, I thought with a grin, winking when his glance flicked to mine.

“That’s cool,” he added, coming over casual and scowling back at me.

“I’m in a band,” Jonathan said with a nod.

“Not tonight though,” he continued, looking over at me and stretching an arm across the back of my chair. “Tonight, I’m just with her.”

“Her?” I repeated, getting lost in his gaze and feeling the need start to bleed through my system.

“You,” he said quietly. His hand edged forward and found the bare skin where my back met my arm. I willed it to keep going and touch the side of my breast. I wanted those hands all over me again. On my breasts and in my hair and cupping the backs of my knees as he slammed himself into me.

Now it was my turn to smile awkwardly, and he recognized the shift in an instant, a smile tugging at one corner of his mouth.

“Right, we get that you two are into each other,” said Tek, apparently having recovered from his momentary bout of groupiedom. “Can you keep it together long enough to be a little bit social?”

Jonathan laughed and turned back to face him. “Hey man, can you blame me?” he said. “She’s so fucking beautiful that I have trouble breathing sometimes when I look at her.”

I felt my heart trip over itself and then stop completely. I caught Kate’s eye just long enough to see her melt all over the floor.

“And as I only get to look at her for another twelve hours,”  he was saying, “I think you’re gonna have to suck it up and deal with our shit.”

It was Tek’s turn to laugh. “Yeah, alright,” he said. “Just try to keep it PG-13, will you?”

I smiled and leaned into Jonathan’s side, snuggling up against him and shivering when his fingers found the lace of my bra, playing out the thoughts I’d just entertained.
