Description

It started off as a battle of wits. Me: the ordinary girl with a big mouth against Him: the sexy bastard with a big...ego.
 
I thought I’d hit the jackpot when I was upgraded to first class on my flight to London.
 
That is until HE sat next to me. Gabriel Scott: handsome as sin, cold as ice. Nothing and no one gets to him. Ever. He’s a legend in his own right, the manager of the biggest rock band in the world, and an arrogant ass who looks down his nose at me.
 
I thought I’d give him hell for one, long flight. I didn’t expect to like him. I didn’t expect to want him. But the biggest surprise? He wants me too. Only in a way I didn’t see coming.
 
If I accept his proposal, I leave myself open to falling for the one man I can’t manage. But I’m tempted to say yes. Because the real man beneath those perfect suits and that cool façade just might be the best thing that’s ever happened to me. And I just might be the only one who can melt the ice around his heart.
 
Let the battle begin…

    It’s really intriguing to see that push/pull sexual chemistry between the Kill John’s manager, Gabriel Scott and the strong willed chatty girl, Sophie Darling heated up throughout the book with its usual ups and downs toward the end. Also, I’m deeply touched that Sophie is half Filipino even though she’s a blonde. To read the passage saying her Mom is half Filipino, part Norwegian American who sent her care packages like lumpia, I truly am in awe that she mentioned her mother is a typical outspoken mother😂😂😂😂! It’s nice to know there’s a great deal of diversity in all characters in the book series. I enjoyed reading the journey between Scottie and Sophie. I’m looking forward to reading Fall and Exposed.

    This is my first read from this author, and I loved it! This story is funny, charismatic, and romantic. Polar opposites with attraction is a recipe for disaster, aka success! No spoilers here but Managed is Gabriel’s story. He’s reserved and alone when he bumps into an over the top photographer. It’s worth the read how these two meet and become friends.

    There are examples of incorrect grammar in Ms. Callihan’s work. Some examples are due to the characters’natural use of colloquial speech patterns. Others are attributed to characters who are well-educated and should know better. I do find her novels entertaining and well-developed.

    This is an excellent portrayal of the complex emotions and interactions that can make or break a loving relationship. It’s all about communication, as well shown by the author.

    From the very begging the story warm my heart. It was funny and captivating and the way the those two characters develop had a way of making me feel like so many things are possible. It’s a good read, to the point that I couldn’t put it down until I finished it.

    If you read idol than this is a must!!! I love having a new perspective of Scotty and having a new character in the gang. I could not put it down, I finished it all in one day. Scotty reminds me of Elijah from the originals and I overall loved the book! Won’t regret buying it
  • And, I thought the first book in the series was great!

    Book two of the VIP series. This author is new to me, and I can’t believe I didn’t find her sooner. I read through both Idol and Managed super quick and can’t wait to start on the third. So well-written with good storylines, well defined characters and witty dialogue.
  • Love Scottie

    Loved this story. The writing was engaging, the characters memorable, sexy, and the time line of the romance progression was wonderful. I have read this story five times already and starting again. Just totally fell in love with Gabriel. Thank you for this.
