Tommy Blade is a man with a secret. It’s a secret he only shares with one person, Jessi Blade – and 

the men he surrenders to in the bedroom. Her only condition to their tumultuous sex life is that these

Jessi Blade, sympathetic to her husband's bisexual needs, loves him enough to share him, but she never counted on Angel Garcia to test the threshold of her marriage. He makes her life hell . . . and heaven. He’s her damnation and her salvation. She wants to hate him. She wants to despise him. But, his charm and raw sex appeal are impossible to resist. Without warning, she finds herself falling in love with her husband's gay lover.


At the height of it all, their punk rock band catapults to stardom. 
 

Their lives are marred by secrecy, deception and sacrifice. Feelings of betrayal, backlash from the sensationalistic media and threats of blackmail send them down a hard road filled with tough decisions. 

 
They aren't your ordinary rock stars. They're radical rock stars. And they have a big story to tell.
