Storm is a hot and sweet fairy-tale romance about a bad boy rockstar that isn't really bad and a good girl that finally grows up. An unlikely couple, but they worked for me -- there was a lot of steam in that truck stuck in the snow. 
 The first 2/3 of Storm progressed nicely around Storm wooing Evie. He swoops in to rescue her in more than one situation and I couldn't help but like him. He was mostly charming and caring and sometimes commanding and possessive. He lit up the pages when he was in the scene. 
 I liked Evie too, although there were a few times she seemed a bit bi-polar. At the beginning of the book, she's insecure and afraid of a lot of different things, and Storm shakes her up good. Sometimes she likes it, sometimes she doesn't but once he gets her to thaw a little, she takes a good look at her life. I love how she got stronger and more confident as she pulls away from her long time boyfriend. She got on my nerves a few times, but I totally understood where she was coming from. 
 The building tension as Storm wins Evie's heart kept the story nicely paced, and there are glimpses of stories to come as we meet Storm's band and family. But once Evie makes her decision, things almost got too gooey for me. The last bit just missed something for me. The ending felt a bit flat and Storm's behavior went from charming to almost being possessive in a scary way. 
 Overall, Storm was a easy, sexy and mostly entertaining read. I'd probably read another book in this series--there was enough of a tease for me to want to read about Ash, Storm's brother.There were things I really liked about Storm, and then there were some parts that could have been better. 
 A nice debut effort
