THE ROCK STAR IN SEAT 3A by Jill Kargman

Congrats to Tanya Quilts on Colorado! You have won Rock Star! Please email me at stephanieelliot@gmail.com to get your book!



 

You want a fabulous fun read? Here is one that will have you dreaming of the best song you ever heard by the hottest guy who ever sang it! Think INXS’ Michael Hutchence (God rest his soul), Robert Smith of The Cure, John Mayer, Sting, Dave Matthews, Jon Bon Jovi? … who’s your fantasy rock star? 

Imagine sitting next to him on a plane and then HIM falling hot and heavy in love with you and having the hottest sex imaginable with him. But also, HE’s IN LOVE WITH YOU TOO!

Fifty Shades of LAMO… who needs THAT book when you’ve got Jill Kargman’s THE ROCK STAR IN SEAT 3A?

Which, by the way, I read on AN AIRPLANE!! Too bad I already had my rock star of a husband next to me and couldn’t have a real fantasy. Too bad I wasn’t in seat 3B waiting for a hot rock star. OK, my husband might not be a ‘rock star’ but come on, he’s HOT! See:
 He can't sing to save his life though!


But, this book is so much fun! There’s drama because of course, main character Hazel has the perfect boyfriend who is about to propose to her when she meets handsome rock star. But you don’t feel like she’s being a horrible person by following this fantasy because you kind of know in your heart that if [INSERT HOT ROCK FANTASY GUY HERE] met you on a plane and you shared instant hot spine tingling low-stomach aching chemistry, you’d want to do the same exact thing as our lovely heroine Hazel does!

You’ll seriously love it! Here’s the book blurb:

It's Hazel's thirtieth birthday and she has everything she's ever wanted: a kickass job, a dream apartment in New York City, and the perfect boyfriend—who's just days away from proposing. Hazel thinks she's happy but isn't quite ready to settle down. So when her most far-fetched fantasy enters the realm of the possible, shouldn't she drop everything to see it through? 

The morning after her birthday, Hazel boards a flight to L.A. only to get the surprise of her life. When she's bumped up to first class, extra legroom and free drinks are absolutely the last things on her mind when she catches sight of her seatmate: her all-time biggest celebrity crush, rock star Finn Schiller! Only the night before she'd confessed her infatuation with the gorgeous musician, and her boyfriend joked that she had a free pass if she ever met him. Hazel can't believe fate has actually thrown them together. 

Even more unbelievable is that during the flight they genuinely connect. Finn likes her uncensored cursing and wicked sense of humor, and that she's unlike all of his groupies; Hazel likes his killer looks, ripped physique, and soulful music. But what started as a fantasy quickly becomes a real attraction, and after a dream date and taste of the rock-star life with Finn in L.A., Hazel is forced to examine the track her life is on. Indulging in a passionate affair with a rock star seems crazy—but could she ever forgive herself if she walked away from her wildest dream coming true? And is her wildest dream the stuff that happiness is made of? 

A lively novel about a down-to-earth New York City girl who suddenly finds herself in a rock 'n' roll Cinderella fantasy, The Rock Star in Seat 3A is seasoned with Jill Kargman's signature wit and hilarious dialogue. This is a fairy-tale romance with a twist.

I seriously loved this book and didn’t want it to end. It’s a great, quick fun read, but as all great things must come to an end, so did The Rock Star in Seat 3A! If you’d like to enter to win a copy for yourself, tell me who is THE ROCK STAR YOU’D MOST LIKE TO MAKE OUT WITH ON A PLANE, and what song makes you melt? Right now, I think my Go-To song and the guy I’d like to make out with on a plane (even though he gets HORRIBLE press and a totally bad rap) ... my guy would be John Mayer. LOOK, it's MY FANTASY!!! And I love the song Gravity.

Your turn! Tell me girls! I can't WAIT to hear who you want to lock lips with!!!! xo

Crystal said...

Justin Randall Timberlake!! If he sings and dances to My Love I would just about die!! (or a throwback to *nsync and I would be putty in his hands!) <3

absolutahnie said...

can we pretend it's the late 80s so i can say bono? the song would be "all i want is you." i wouldn't want him today (that hair? those glasses?)

Jessica said...

Hmm, hard question. I can't even think of any rock stars. Maybe I'm just too tired, haha. Well I can't think of any good looking ones. I guess John Mayer. I don't know if he's considered a rock star. I love the song "Sometime around midnight" by the Airborne toxic event.

Thanks!

Dawn in CA said...

Lately, I find singer Andy Grammer to be really hot, and his song "Fine by Me" to be just fine for a makeout session!

Luke Bryan... Drunk on You.

EBrowning said...

I'm not into rock stars so much but if I had to pick one it would probably be Adam Levine. Now if we're talking country boys I don't know how I could chose just one...Blake Shelton, Toby Keith, Joe Nichols, Keith Urban, Tim McGraw, Luke Bryan...all HOT, HOT, HOT! ;) My favorite song right now is Dancing Away with my Heart - which is nice and slow and would probably be a good make out song.

ludy2288 said...

is it sad that I can't think of a single rock star I'd want to make out with? I haven't seen my bf in 5 months so he is the only person I think about making out with...to any song at all :)

Bridget said...

John Mayer. Yummy. Dreaming with a Broken Heart

Kristi said...

Even though he's not a rock star, Justin Timberlake. He's hot, can sing, act and he's funny.

Emily said...

Adam Levine, Adam Levine, Adam Levine.

And the song One and Only by Adele is currently one of the ones that gets to my heart.

Jes said...

Because I am a Jersey Girl, of course its Bruce and the song Born to Run.

Krystal said...

I would also choose Adam Levine with "She Will Be Loved".

Dani In Chicago said...

Justin Timblerlake; Your Body is a Wonderland. Most beautiful song ever.

Anonymous said...

Ok, don't laugh but Mick Jagger. I just want to say I made out with a legendary c***smith! And of course that would be to Beast if Burden just for the whole feel of it.

Heather said...

I would have to say Jon Bon Jovi! Good girl, with a bad rocker boy :)

susieqlaw said...

Bryan Adams "The Summer of 69"

Susan B.

Juliet Farmer said...

Jeff Buckley (R.I.P.) and my current fave song is "Our Deal" by Best Coast.

TinaB said...

Luke Bryan is my crush! He's country, not rock...but he's HOT!!! Love all his songs!!
Brannanflooring@aol.com

buttah said...

My first would be Chris Cornell of Audioslave or Soundgarden, depending on what era you are from LOL!! His voice is so soulful and sexy! And my other would be Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20. I don't really have a "song" per se...

Emma S. said...

Ne-yo to Rob Thick's song "Lost Without You"

CAnative said...

Jon Bon Jovi. No specific song but I've really been into Shinedown lately.

Nicole

Unknown said...

Uncle Kracker - "Follow Me" OH MY GOSH that would be killer for me! I love that man! LOL

Lizett34 said...

Adam Levine, he is amazingly sexy!

BrendaL71 said...

Sorry...It would totally be Enrique Iglesia for me and he could sing a nursery rhyme and still make me melt. So yummy!

Natalie M. in VA said...

Jon Bon Jovi most DEFINITELY. However, despite his bad-boy, mysogonist rep, a close second would be Eminem (especially if he was wearing his smart-guy glasses).

Natalie M. in VA said...

oh, and I'm pretty sure the song would be a non issue, bc hey - I'd be making out with Jon Bon Jovi or Eminem!! lol Though if I had to choose, I'd say anything by Kem or Sade would make for good ambience.

Unknown said...

I've got it really bad for Kid Rock:) He's got a bad rep, but he's so nice (according to interviews) and does such good things for Detriot.

Almost all his songs on the Born Free Album make me melt, but "For the First Time" is pretty sulty and I often fantasize that he's signing it to MEEEEEE:)!

Seriously, see him in concert, dare you not to fall (but beware of the shady crowd...lol).

ncsuloges said...

Kenny Chesney Summertime...I know he's not a rocker. :)

Katie said...

I would probably say I would most like to make out with Dave Matthews. Hello! :)

LeslieGC said...

Jon Bon Jovi. I have had major celeb crush on him since high school (the big hair days)! I saw him in concert last year sing Hallelujah...absolutely beautiful. LeslieGC

Nanette said...

Ummm...Hello? BONO....ahem. :)

Tanya Quilts in CO said...

I had to think about this one for a while! Kid Rock would probably be the one just to annoy my husband who absolutely hates him...As far as a song that makes me melt that would be "Your Body Is a Wonderland" by John Mayer. It is ultra sexy!

Carly said...

Bruce Springsteen: I'm on Fire

:)

Carly H

Megan said...

oo I'd make out with Adam Levine and the song that makes me melt is..."I Melt" by Rascal Flatts.

accidentalgypsy said...

I'd make out with Dierks Bentley or Charles Kelley (Lady Antebellum) to any song at all! :)

Anonymous said...

I would like to make out with Adam Levine. I love the song "Saturday Night" by the Eagles.

-Donna W.

Leah B said...

This is tough - right now it is probably Adam Levine [he seems to be a pretty common answer], I love the tats and bad boy image.

Melissa said...

hahaha. i just started reading this one. i don't need to be entered and while i'd make out with adam lambert in the past, i'm kinda over him now. if jason segel were a rock star, that would work. lol! i think brad paisley, who sings country, is sexy.

melissa a from clc

Tiffany Drew said...

Hmmm, so many to choose from! I guess I'll have to go with Eddie Vedder. He can sing Black to me and I will just melt into his arms lol :)

slm8803 said...

I could name MANY! However, although he is not a rock star, I'd have to say Bradley Cooper!!!

AND...any song will be fine. Who would be listening to it anyway?

equinn726 said...

I'd totally make out with Noel Gallagher from the '90's band Oasis while listening to "Love Forever."

Lesley Davis, esq said...

I'd say Adam Levine even though IRL he's not my type. Unless Channing tatum is a rock star & I don't know about it. I really love Goyte's somebody that I used to know right now!

keltban said...

Lenny Kravitz...Love him!!

Not too many songs come to mind but I love "Wicked Game" by Chris Isaak.

Christina said...

Dave Matthews!! I loooooove him!

A.C. said...

Throw in another vote for Adam Levine here :) Song that makes me swoon is Konstantine by Something Corporate.

TaraUB said...

Glad there are other Bon Jovi's on here. I'm not very good with keeping song names in my head. Maybe Imagine by The Beatles.

Terri said...

Pretty much, if you put any guy in a band with a guitar (or especially the drums!) their hotness increases by about 50%! I can't think of anyone in particular though. And there are millions of songs that make me melt.

Terri M.

Carie Casey said...

John Mayer totally. He could sing me the phone book.

Carie

Jeffie T said...

Dierks Bentley for sure.

Fav song right now - Lady A's "Just a Kiss"

Erin G said...

I'd say David Cook or Justin Timberlake. Right now I love the song Somebody That I Used to Know

betsy_blixt said...

Tim Armstrong or Lars Fredrickson make me swoon. I can't just pick one song, their all my favorite.

Ally said...

Gavin from Bush.

Carol5814 said...

Steven Tyler makes me laugh on Idol. Or how about Phil Phillips ;)

Alice said...

Just went to the Avett Brother's concert and I'll take either of them, if they didn't think I was ancient. Have been playing I and Love and You on a loop.

Joelle said...

Hmmm...who would I want to make out with...I would probably say Bon Jovi. My favorite song right now is Wild Ones by Flo Rida.

Kris said...

It would have to be Bono for me, I've loved him for like forever and he's hot and can sing,
