Lexi and Alex’s passion for each other shows no signs of waning, but the road ahead is by no means easy. While Lexi loves Alex, she struggles to retain her individual identity while being a partner in a high-profile relationship. On her first international tour as Power Station’s publicist and Alex’s official girlfriend, Lexi is initiated into the crazy lifestyle of a rock star. Despite all the pressure, Lexi realises that their relationship is worth fighting for and she no longer wants to be alone. In order for her to move forward with Alex, she needs to reconcile her past and exorcise some demons that she thought were best forgotten. Is their love strong enough to survive the tests that family, distance, and time provide?

Lexi Reed was unstoppable, or so she thought. As the PR manager of international rock band Power Station, she was a long way from her old life in Melbourne. Married to one of the sexiest men alive (Power Station’s guitarist, Alex Stone), she was living beyond any fantasy she could have imagined. And after finally allowing the walls from her past to fall, she had learned to trust again. But her happiness is short lived when heartache and trauma throw everything she knows into turmoil. Her world comes crashing down around her, and now she’s struggling to regain her sense of self. Unable to regroup and heal under the scrutiny of the media and her well-intentioned loved ones, she can’t seem to find the road back to the old “Lexi.” Alex is devastated. His beautiful, intelligent, and once confident wife is now distant and guarded, the product of the brutality she has suffered. He feels powerless but is determined not to lose her. With her gorgeous rock-star husband by her side and her eclectic but devoted circle of friends, Lexi starts over. In order to find a way to reconcile the past and build a future, she must let go and trust them to help her. In this final installment of the series, relationships are tested, terms are renegotiated, and lives are irrevocably changed. With the hope that their love for each other is strong enough to carry them through, Lexi and Alex gamble everything in search of their happily ever after.

Lexi is a successful PR manager for a multinational firm based in Melbourne, Australia. She is an energetic and impulsive soul whose passions sometimes control her life. Through a twist of fate, she is chosen to represent a famous client, catapulting her into a new life in New York that fulfills her in a way she had never imagined. When Lexi meets Alex, sparks fly. Their chemistry is explosive, and they can’t get enough of each other. Her role as the PR manager for his band, Power Station, means they have to keep their arrangement secret, and this proves to be a complication for both of them. Following the twists and turns of six months in Lexi’s life, A Twist of Fate explores the complicated rules Lexi creates to govern her relationships.

Kitty was not only beautiful but also incredibly intelligent–except when it came to relationships. It seemed if a guy was a loser, corrupt, deadbeat, or unavailable, she was completely and utterly attracted to him. She definitely had a “type,” and all of them had been one bad decision after another.Dallas had trouble of his own. Finding women wasn’t a problem–he could charm the pants off almost anyone–but most of those “pantless” women ended up being a few bananas short of a fruit basket…not always the best candidates for his sex-without-strings philosophy. He was one date away from ending up on a 60 Minutes special.While both of them were at the top of their game professionally–she, a high-powered executive assistant, and he, one of the best tattooists in the city–their personal lives had become a dumpster fire.No one in their right mind would have suggested they join forces to help each other wade through the crazy. Surely that’d be a recipe for disaster? But without reason, logic, or even sanity on their side, they decided to do it anyway.

Sarah Madison loved working at Baldwin & Blake. While she looked and, for the most part, acted conservatively–she was a gladiator in the boardroom. The fast-paced, energetic work environment not only fed her need for corporate blood but enabled her to prove that women can have it all. And after months of paying her dues, she was finally offered the promotion she’d been vying for. Which was great, except for the fact she had to share it with a new guy they brought in especially for the role. Kyle Drake was smart, experienced, and probably just as good, if not better, in negotiations. And if she wasn’t careful, he could prove that he could do the job without her. Add in good-looking and an incredibly sexy smooth talker, and everyone in the office either wanted to be him or sleep with him. Which Sarah could have totally ignored if he hadn’t been the stranger she’d married in Vegas during a fake ceremony six months earlier. He was supposed to be her one-night stand, a stand-in for a ceremony that wasn’t even legally binding. They were never even going to see each other again. Hell, she apparently hadn’t even known his real last name at the time. It was the only time she’d ever done something completely reckless and spontaneous. It figured that one time would come back and bite her where it hurt.

Touring as an opening act for a huge rock band and landing a record contract means you’ve hit the big time, right? Sadly, neither of those things gave Rusty Crawford, lead guitarist of the band Black Addiction, worldwide fame and fortune. Which was a shame because he had the lifestyle down to a fine art–without the cliched stint in rehab. Even being back in the Bronx, paying his dues didn’t rattle the charismatic axe man, ladies loved him and men wanted to be him. Fate would just have to catch up. Seemed like fate had more than just a platinum album planned for his future. Alison Williams had the perfect life. Or at least she did until her world came crashing down around her, in the most epic way. With her future no longer a certainty she finds herself out of her comfort zone and into uncharted territory–a place where Rusty Crawford likes to spend most of his time. Will the charming and ridiculously hot rock god help her find her feet, or send her further down the rabbit hole? One thing was for sure; both of them were in for the ride of their lives.

While Beth Hart had enjoyed being the sometimes girlfriend of Max Reynolds–the hot bass player for Black Addiction–she knew it would never be more than a casual fling. He was destined for greatness, and she cared too much to hold him back. So, before she lost her heart and her sanity, she said goodbye to the Bronx, moved to Manhattan, and left her party-girl days in the past–along with Max. Nothing made Max happier than being a success in his own right. And in the last few years, he and his band had well and truly earned it. Moving to the city and enjoying the spoils of his new lifestyle made perfect sense, and he loved his new address. It wasn’t his new huge penthouse apartment that got him excited; it was his new neighbor. The one girl he regretted letting go–Beth. He wanted her back and would do anything to make it happen. Hopefully it wasn’t too late.

Kenzie Clark had made plenty of mistakes. Who cared? Life was all about the journey, and if you couldn’t enjoy the ride then what was the point. The tough-talking guitarist from Brooklyn, NY worked hard so she could play even harder. But some mistakes weren’t so easy to walk away from. Joey Shaw, the drummer for Black Addiction, was exactly that kind of a mistake. How could one night of fun turn into a life long commitment? That’s exactly what Joey was asking himself when Kenzie showed up a few weeks later–the soon-to-be baby bump with his name written all over it. He could barely tie his shoes; how in the hell was he going to raise a kid? With neither of them ready to become parents, it was always going to be difficult, but there was no way either of them were walking away. Come hell or high water, they were having this baby–together. Hopefully they would both be still standing by the birth.

Those were the words used to describe Eve Thorton’s exhibition. Not even a fine-arts degree from Yale or her daddy’s bank account could save her from the scathing reviews. And failure was a word Eve would never be comfortable with–not even close.Plotting the demise of every critic who’d written her off was her first instinct. But that would come later. Instead, she would show them that she wasn’t a bored socialite with more money than talent.She would prove everyone wrong, and she wasn’t afraid to get her hands dirty. But when her journey for redemption crashed headfirst into Josh Logan, the sexy, talented tattooist from Queens, getting her hands dirty took on a whole new meaning.Josh was everything Eve wasn’t, translating on skin what she couldn’t onto her canvas. All she had to do was convince him to share his jaw-dropping brilliance and help her–seeing him naked was just a bonus. Then she could go back to her regular life, vindicated.It should have been easy. Pity her plans had a habit of derailing.

White Trash Circus will be taking an extended break and won’t be playing any time in the foreseeable future. Please lodge all your complaints to my guitarist–and my ex-best friend–who I found inside the girlfriend I’ve had since high school. I will pull the freaking knife from my back and continue–without either of them–when the time is right. With enough hate and anger coursing through my veins to keep me in therapy for life, I’m going to save my cash and let the music heal me. Prepare all your bleeding hearts to be tormented with the most righteous, heavy, and cataclysmic tunes to ever come out of me. So there’s that to look forward to. Thank you for all the support over the years, the gigs, the love, and most of all memories. Don’t trust anyone and stay metal–Vaughan. PS. Connor, you left your guitar and rig at my house so I took the liberty of relocating it to my front lawn. I might have dropped it on the way out the door. In your own words, brother, “Sometimes stuff just happens.” PPS. Our drummer spontaneously combusted and is no longer with us.
