"Abby Gauthier is close to getting everything she's worked so hard for. The band she manages, Sinister Riot, has been offered a major record contract. But it comes with a catch: the band must add Eli Jamison, winner of the talent show The Spotlight, to the lineup.
Devon Sinclair is the singer of Sinister Riot, and he's Abby's best friend. She's in love with him, but fears she'll lose him if she makes the first move. Devon knows adding Eli to the band is a mistake, and he's right. Eli's interested in more than just making an album. He wants to take control of the band, and he wants to get to know Abby better. A lot better. When tensions between Devon and Eli threaten to destroy Sinister Riot, Abby must act on her true feelings or lose everything she's ever wanted."

Too Many Reasons by Kristen Strassel (Spotlight Series Book #2)
Completed: 04.02.2015
* I received this title as an ARC by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Abby is the manager of Sinister Riot, and has always been in love with the lead singer, Devon. When Sinister Riot is forced to add Eli into their band, a move that could make them big, tensions are high. Will Sinister Riot finally make it to where they want to be?
This book is for fans of band-based romance, and love-triangles! The author made the relationship between each individual character very differently. Which I found extremely refreshing, because not everybody got along with everybody - and it wasn't the typical situation where a protagonist comes along, and you feel like he would be the 'annoying one' throughout the entire book. No, it was nothing like that. Everybody had their plus points, as well as their bad sides.
This is the first time I've read any book by Kristen Strassel, and I was pretty impressed, to be honest. The book was really well written, and the characters were realistic. The only reason I won't be giving this book four stars is because I'm not too keen about love-triangles. There were parts of the book where I found myself wanting to smack someone. I won't spoil it for you, but I would definitely recommend this book for anyone looking for band romance, as well as, a little something different!

Three Stars!
PS: Do you have to read the first book in the series in order to enjoy this one? Nope. Not at all, Too Many Reasons is great as a stand alone novel.
