Tyler Thompson is a bona fide rock star. He went on tour at seventeen and never looked back. And now, fifteen years later, he has more fame, fortune, and success than he ever imagined. He's the bass player for a new band, Nobody's Fool, and all he wants to do is get back on tour. But business and personal issues are blocking his next move. Pop star Ariel Fox has been under her father’s thumb for so long she doesn’t remember what freedom is like. When she gets invited to record a single on Nobody's Fool's demo tape she's ready for a week of work...and fun, without the watchful eye of her father. One look at Tyler’s blue eyes and she's immediately snagged. She wants it all—him, success, a real future. But nothing is ever that simple. Falling in love wasn't part of the deal. And when the record company tries to sabotage Nobody’s Fool, Ariel must choose between protecting Tyler and protecting herself. Are you ready for the ROCK HARD series? Four sexy rockers. Four intense women who don't know they love them. Four hard rockin' love stories for the ages.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

USA Today Bestselling author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.

Kat's a typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max). When she's not writing, she's either scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible. She hopes to retire there one day so she can spend her days writing books on the beach.

As you can guess from her series, the Las Vegas Sidewinders, Kat loves hockey. She is also a freelance hockey writer, covering her favorite team, the Florida Panthers, and any other teams that have an interesting story. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...

Great First in series novel!

This novel starts out really great. Author waited 6+ chapters too late to get into the female leads real issues. Last 6 chapters began a decline in the QUALITY of this novel. But I am looking to read the whole series.

I wasn't sure how this book was going to go when it initially seemed like it was going to be a "love at first sight" story, but it is in no way that kind of story. There is so much more to the story than two successful musicians meeting and falling in love. Ariel is a beautiful you woman who has been a huge pop star since she was a teen. Tyler is a talented and sexy bass player in the hard rock band Nobody's Fool. They have an immediate connection when they first meet. The record company wants them to work together, but they want Nobody's Fool to be more pop, than rock and dangle a huge contract in front of the band. As the band and Tyler get to know Ariel, they learn how controlling her father is over her life. She's never had a chance to enjoy her life and have any friends. She finally decides it's time to take control of her life and get out from under her dad's control.
There is so much that goes on in this book. You find out what an absolute jerk her father is (and I'm being nice). Even in the end he claims he was just trying to protect her. Tyler makes some stupid decisions when Ariel needs him the most. The band, including Tyler and his parents, a King, psychologists, a pharmacist and more all come together to support Ariel to help her get her freedom and what is truly hers. Did the Judge rule on Ariel's favor? Did Tyler win her back? Will the band go on? You'll have to read the book to find out.

New Band, New Series

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2021

n Play, Kat Mizera brings back our favorite musicians with a few new characters. Tyler was the bassist’s for Casey Hart’s band, but when she left marry a king, the band Reckless Harts was disbanded. Tyler now has a new band with several new band mates. While the band, Nobody’s Fool, is playing a live show, he sees the pop start Ariel Fox in the wings. Something just clicks into place, beginning a new experience for the playboy.

Years ago, as a teenager, Ariel lost control, drove her car into a pool, and then hit a policeman. Her father placed her in a mental institution, told her she was bipolar, and became her conservator, controlling every minute of her day and her finances. When she meets Tyler at the show, she lets go for a moment, sneaking off with him. Soon, they are trying to get together again, but away from her controlling father.

I liked how these two were complete opposites, their music, their lifestyles, and their freedoms. But one thing connected them, they both were lonely in their own ways. Tyler is this smoking hot bass player, a known player who can have any woman he wants, although he seems to want more. Tyler was invited to join Reckless Harts when he was 17, and although he is a great musician, everything has come easy for him, fame, fortune, women, while never having to work at it. He is sweet but clueless. Ariel has practically been locked away in a tower, no friends, no relationships, since she was a teenager. She lacks self-confidence, and while her beauty and musical abilities have made her professional life easy, her personal life has been hell.

I love this start to a new series, and the bandmates are all so different from each other. I'm looking forward to the next book in this series.

They fall hard for each other. As time goes by all types of situations occur with Ariel's dominant father, her bi-polar disease and her relationship with Tyler. Several things happen before there is happily ever after.

Love this start to the Rock Hard series...fabulous

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021

Verified Purchase

Play is a fabulous start to a new series. I loved this one. You will see many familiar faces and they just make the perfect addition to the Rock Hard series. This is Tyler's book. You may have met him as former bandmate to Casey. Now he is in trying to bring home a new music deal along side his bandmates. He is sweet and sometimes clueless. But you will love him anyways. Then there is Ariel and everything her (ugh) dad puts her through. She is stronger then she thinks she is and is so sweet. I love the instant connection Ariel and Tyler have. They just have this pull that you feel from the start that will keep you glued to the pages as their attraction grows. I really could not get enough of this. I cannot wait to see where Kat Mizera takes us with this new series. This may just become my new rocker addiction.

Indescribable

Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2022

This was an interesting book, almost sweet definitely sexy. My only negative was the bipolar diagnosis. I knew in the middle of the 2nd mention of bipolar disorder that Ariel didn't have it. I'm bipolar and have been on.medication for more than 30 years and trust me when I say you can tell when I'm not taking them. I also argue with the fact that the meds muddle your thoughts and the other descriptions used. While true years ago the biggest complaint I've heard in the past 10 years is an.upset stomach..... Like I said that was the only part I had issue with and made the identity of meds not a show stopper. I wish more research had been done on that.
All and all the story was a sweet one and definitely worth reading! Im excited to read the next books in the series!

Her life is being ruled by her father with no out i sight. He’s a rockstar trying to be part of a second big name band. When all the cards are on the table do they have what it takes to make their love last?

This book is amazing! I love the storyline and want to punch Ariel’s father! Tyler is so amazing, even though he had his typical man moments- in the end he shows up big time and that’s all that matters! It was also great to catch up with some of the characters from her other books too, especially anything that has to do with Club Inferno. You should definitely read this book. It’s the first in a series of stand-alone books about the Nobody’s Fool Band that has been mentioned in a few other series, including the sidewinders!

Miss the mark

The story and characters were fine. Love scenes are good but there is no way the judge, in particular, would speak like that in court. Or that a king would go to court on a whim and short notice. The whole legal wrap up was too schmultzy.
Pity that it never kept the right tone for the business and legal sides of the saga.
