About this audiobook

The third novel in Jamie's fantastic Mayhem series reunites lead guitarist, Shawn, with a girl from his past who is determined to show him what he's been missing.

From the moment she saw Shawn Scarlett perform at a school talent show, Kit Larson has loved two things: the guitar, and the gorgeous, green-eyed boy who inspired her to play. But one careless night in high school shatters her hope of ever being more than a notch in his bedpost.

Six years, two bands, and one mostly mended heart later, Kit s about to make her rock star dreams a reality as the new guitarist for Shawn's band, The Last Ones to Know. He may not remember their reckless night together, but Kit has never forgotten ... and she's determined to make him eat his heart out.

The release of their new album means a month cooped up on a tour bus, sleeping inches away from the ridiculously sexy musician she's never quite gotten over. And as Kit gets to know the real Shawn not Shawn Scarlett, the rock god, the player their attraction becomes too hot to resist. But the past is paved with secrets, and when they finally surface, Kit could lose everything: the band, the music, her dreams ... and Shawn.

    This heroine has a serious case of "not like other girls" syndrome. Almost every stereotype about women being catty, emotional, or venomous she-devils is at play here. Our protagonist alternates between being a "grown up" 21-year old and a simpering obsessive for the hero to whom she lost her virginity at age 15. She's been in love with him for the flimsiest of reasons for more than half a decade and at no point during their romance does he do anything to merit her level of devotion. And that doesn't even begin to mention the downright homophobic stereotype of the Gay Best Friend being flamboyant and feminine. The crux of the story is a classic miscommunication-as-conflict plot. The heroine is co vinced the hero doesn't care about her even after they've almost banged and shared intimate conversations for weeks. There's denial and then there's insanity and she's tipping way too far over the edge.

    DNF. The heroine is a big drama mama in all her juvenile glory. Can't take it.

    Great narration!! Some books i find are ruined by a narrator who doesn’t fit the main character in my head. This was not the case i think she did a great job & will be looking for more books narrated by her. loved the story & that it wasn’t too cheesy—had me laughing and smiling— listened to it in 2 days!

    I never learn. At 17%, nothing has happened. Nothing. And not in an interesting way, either. How was this even published? A waste.

    ETA: At 80% complete, the elapsed time within the book was about three hours, and the exposition felt endless. Endless. At 90% complete, all hell broke loose, and the villains were identified and disposed of within a couple of paragraphs. I just don't get it.

    I find myself in an ambivalent relationship with Ms Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta suspense novels. This one tended more toward the hate end of the spectrum. "Why am I still reading this book that isn't going anywhere,' I asked myself as I kept turning the pages.

    The latest Scarpetta novel, ti's about a murder of a bicycle rider in Boston, then it spins out of control. This is chaotic, indeed, and needs some serious work to turn it into anything near an exciting read. There’s very little plot and lots of rambling so that we don’t have a dead body till 20% through the book. There's al awful lot of discussion about slimey shoes, internal monologue and other clothing concerns that detract from the whodunit plot.

    The author took forever to get to the story and continually went off on tangents that had no bearing on the story, character development or anything besides being boring

    This is the 24th book in the crime fiction series featuring forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta, who now is the head of the Cambridge Forensic Center in Massachusetts.As the story opens on a suffocatingly hot day in early September, Kay and Police Investigator Pete Marino are called to the scene after 23-year-old cyclist Elisa Vandersteel is found dead in John F. Kennedy Park. Marino got a call about the case allegedly from Interpol, although it’s glaringly and annoyingly obvious to everyone but Marino and even Kay for a while that it was a fake call.Kay has gotten her share of prank calls lately as well. These threatening calls come from someone identifying himself as “Tailend Charlie.” The voice on the calls has been manufactured to sound like Kay’s deceased father, and the messages are delivered in Italian, always at 6:12, which is Kay’s date of birth. Moreover, they always last 22.4 seconds; 224 was the street address where Kay grew up.Kay and Marino discuss the current death, the calls by Tailend Charlie, and the upcoming visit of Kay’s sister Dorothy in confusing and chaotic dialogue, although this is probably not the “chaos” to which the title refers. When Kay’s FBI husband Benton Wesley enters the picture, the dialogue does not become more comprehensible. Clarity is not the strong point of this book.As Kay and Marino analyze the crime scene, they discover that Vandersteel was a victim of some sort of electrocution, in a way similar to other recent puzzling deaths. In spite of some badly done red herrings, Kay, Marino, and Benton - for inexplicable reasons - suspect involvement of the pathological Carrie Grethen, nemesis of Kay and her niece Lucy.The story builds to a predictable climax, and ends with a surprising revelation that ensures the storyline will continue in future books.Evaluation: The plot is a bit silly and the dialogue is hopelessly garbled. Except for the interesting forensic details, the book was a great disappointment to me.
