*I received this book as in ARC exchange for an honest review*
I have to start off this F&C is book two of the Back-Up Series. If you have not read Back-Up yet, what are you waiting for?! This may contain spoilers off book one so if you have not read, you are warned.
Front & Center starts off right where we left off, which is something I personally love. Jack, Leila and the rest of Devil’s Lair are off on their first tour and the fans are loving them! Jack and Leila are so madly in love it’s sickening to the rest of the band, but secretly they all couldn’t be happier that these two have found each other. Devil’s Lair is on fire, climbing the charts, scheduling extra tour stops, nothing will stop them.
Jack’s ex-girlfriend, Jessa plays the perfect villain again in this book. Claiming to be pregnant with Jack’s baby, is throwing a major wrench into this young relationship. Lei is doing everything she can to keep her jealousy and anger at bay while comforting Jack of possibly being the father of this baby. Yet, something isn’t settling right for Lei, she can sense that Jessa is up to something.
Leila is petrified to announce her and Jack’s relationship, worried they fans will hate her or think she is sleeping her way into the band. Turns out though, she worried for nothing! The majority of the fans love the idea of them together! Until Jessa leaks her pregnancy that it…
This book had so many twists in the plot my heart was racing with every page. I don’t want to give too much away but you will not be disappointed! While I am an avid fan of A.M. Madden and fell completely in love with Jack and Leila in Back-Up this book completely surpassed anything I could have imagined. This is A.M.’s debut series, and I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next!! If F&C is any indication, Encore is going to be amazing!!!
HIGHLY recommend this book and if you have not read Back-Up yet, you need too! This is not your ordinary rocker book, the connection between Jack and Leila jump off the page, and there is A LOT of that happening because he can’t keep his hands off of her. I think I can even see a spin off happening with some of the other band members.. Maybe I can plant that idea in A.M.s mind *wink wink* This is a Must Read 5 Stars!!

An intimate moment causes their willpower to collapse, and their erotic love affair to begin. Finding love was a bonus that neither Jack nor Leila anticipated.
