The Rocker Who Needs Me (The Rocker Series #3) By Terri Anne Browning

Buy Link: The Rocker Who Needs Me

The Demon… 

I’ve been fighting my own demons for most of my life. The alcohol seems to numb the pain, but it never makes the nightmares go away. All I want in life is a little peace. When I met my angel it felt like I found it, but there is so much standing between us. Why does she have to be so young…? 

The Demon’s Angel… 

Meeting Drake was the best thing to ever happen to me. I found my friend, my soul mate. But he lets my age stand between us. There is something that haunts him, and I selfishly want to be the one that helps him conquer his ghosts. If he would just let me in, let me closer, I think I could help him…

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. 

Drake is an alcoholic. He's not hidden that fact and drink freely whenever he pleases. How he manages to still play for the band is anyone's guess. 
In the other books you know something dark is haunting Drake. You know it's going to bad but never and I mean never would I have guessed what it was. I honestly thought it was from a bad childhood and growing up on the wrong side of the tracks. But reading his story made me understand his character more and why, out of all the band members he seemed the most distant from Emmie when they are all close. 
It seems he holds a lot of guilt stole something that could have happened to her. 

Angel, Layla's sister, Lana is smitten with Drake from the get go. We see their friendship blossom in book two but in this book we see the real depths of their feelings for each other. 
This book is my favourite so far because of this. It had so much more meaning, so much emotion it kept me captive all the way through. 

Drake screws up so much during the book and although at times I'd say it was unforgivable, the two do work through it. But Lana knows something is holding Drake back. 
He's obsessive protective, he obviously loves her and even follows her to New York after a year I think it is after his first screw up. To me, how he redeemed himself and how he did it is the best way he could have. He really proved to everyone he was worthy of Lana. 

But again, nightmares haunt him. He spills his secrets to Lana whilst drunk but he doesn't know she knows and she doesn't know the full story. But until he opens up, she knows nothing will be fixed. 
Their story is tragically beautiful and I was glued to the screen reading it.
