The Rush

“What can I say? Pain and lust make good music.”

As his generation’s best guitar soloist and As Above’s lead guitarist,Finland Montgomery has everything he’s ever asked for.

Women? Check.

Whiskey? Check.

Headliner status at the biggest music festival in the country? Double check.

But the one thing Fin never accounted for was a familiar face to come crashing into his life and becoming the focal point of his fascination.

Hardheaded tattooist, Cedar Jones, is no stranger to flirty advances and assholes with complexes. They’re present at every ink shop. Every concert. A problem that has easily been defeated with feisty remarks and her trusty bat.

Until a particular guitarist looks at her like there’s more behind his seemingly empty promises. Like maybe he’s different than those that came before him.

When passions collide, the rush begins and a nightmare threatens to tear them apart, can Cedar and Fin learn to trust each other among the flames of her past?


The Rush is an interconnected standalone and the second installment in the As Above series.
