About Gibson’s Legacy
Gibson Barclay has been famous for almost seven years and he's only twenty four.
Seldom does anyone pick up a magazine, newspaper or watch a television entertainment show, without seeing his image or reading about his promiscuous antics. He had no need to court publicity with his magnetic charm and charismatic ways; when he chooses to cooperate that is. Shrugging off the advice of publicists and image consultants, Gibson makes no excuses for who he is, and with no ties, he answers to no one about how he chooses to live his life.
From teenage musician to twenties mega rock star, Gibson has seen and done it all. Women fantasize about him and men envy his rock scene, womanizing lifestyle. Only one person ever made Gibson feel uncomfortable about the way he lived his life. No one ever said no to him that he can remember, although there was two minute events that he has never been able to shake from his mind. Both of those events involved the way Chloe Jenner looked at him. It was something and nothing, but for him, the impact haunted him. In the strangest twist of fate, something so wildly obscure occurred, that set his mind ablaze with the memory of that small encounter.
Like all women, Chloe found Gibson striking and had even shared with friends, her own guilty fantasy about him. Fantasy and reality were poles apart and Chloe believed that Gibson Barclay never even knew that she existed.

Excerpt
Hands invaded my body space and ran up and across my pectorals, my head dropping to see what she was doing. She glided her palms around and under my arms, until they stopped on both scapula bones on my back.
Stroking me, she smiled suggestively and continued to trail downwards toward my ass, and by the time I made eye contact with her, she was so close her hot panting breaths were fanning over my face.
Groupies had no shame. Then again, I was so fucking wired after the gig, I needed something to bring me down, and an easy fuck meant I didn’t have to be charming or polite to anyone. This girl knew the score and she was begging for it.

My Review
4.5 stars
As much as I wanted to dislike Gibson and his sleazy ways early on I just couldn't help falling for his charm, his bad boy attitude is all it took!
Chloe has seen Gibson's behavior first hand, and while she thinks it's immoral she can't help responding to him. The way he looks at her, his touch, it seems to temporarily erase all his faults.
Chloe is not the only one affected. Gibson has never felt a connection to another person the way he did when he locked eyes with Chloe years ago.
Now by chance Gibson has found Chloe only Chloe is not the same girl she used to be. She's lived through something unthinkable for years and recently found her own feet and is trying to rebuild her life.
The two reconnect for a weekend and sparks fly, but thinks are different for both of them. Gibson doesn't want a one night stand and Chloe refuses to sleep with him.
Gibson and Chloe have to get to know each other as adults, with the changes they have gone through and what has made them who they are today. Chloe has a hard time trusting thanks to her history and pushes Gibson away repeatedly before giving in and telling him what she's been through.
I loved the get to know you stuff, though regardless of her trust issues I think Chloe's constantly going back to treating Gibson like his 19yr old self was nerve wracking. She did redeem herself towards the end when she stood up for herself, I had to laugh at that part, I was proud and happy that she finally grew a pair and began to show something other than her shy self for once.
I look forward to the next book in the series, I have a feeling Kace and Tori could be issues for them and I'd love nothing more than for Kace to get a dose of his own medicine!
