Summary

Seth Hawkins

Lead Guitarist, secretive, unforgiving

There was something about him that called to me. A darkness that drew me in. 

But he never noticed me. 

Until the night he did. One stolen night changed everything. 

One secret destroyed it all.

Riley Temple

Photographer, temptress, off-limits

She distracted me from my nightmares. Made me feel normal, but it was all an act. An illusion destroyed by one single lie. 

Shattered by her truth, I walked away.

I intended to have nothing more to do with her, but then she ran....

She calls me Lucifer, and everybody knows the devil always gets his due.

The second book in the Forgotten Legacy Rock Star Romance series from the author who brought you The Midnight Pack!

Please take notice of the warning at the front of this book.

Can't get enough!

This dynamic dynamo of Thomas's voice reading L.Ann's words is just *chefs kiss*. You might find yourself needing a cold shower at various parts of this book.

Forgotten Legacy book 2

Wow I was really excited for this second audiobook in this rockstar series.

I was introduced to L. Ann’s work in Tattooed Memories and fell in love with the whole band there! This book intertwines with the ending of Tattooed Memories with Gabe, Harper and the whole band playing a gig for a daughter of Gabe’s friend.

Seth spends time with Riley unbeknownst to him that she is the “birthday girl”. Once Seth becomes aware that his growing infatuation with Riley was based on the fact he believes her to be much older all hell breaks loose.

This was quite the trip into what it must be like for Rockstar living just as in Tattooed Memories yet here we witness a budding romance that is destroyed by misunderstandings and the growth of the relationship back for Seth and Riley. I loved visiting with all of the band and their group again in this book. Thomas Locklear is a fantastic artist voicing all of the various characters with such passion and distinction, you will feel like you are listening to various narrators while it’s all done by just Thomas. He continues to blow me away with his work.

I really can’t wait for Dex’s story next. Hopefully it is not too long to be entertained by Thomas again!

Brilliant

This book is brutal. The emotion captures the very essence of a troubled soul. With L. Ann and Thomas together this audiobook is out of this world. I cried so hard. Well done guys, you have out done yourselves. With a chapter dedicated to Hollywood Undead’s Bullet I knew it was going to be worth more stars.

as expected

well i waited for months for Thomas to finish recording this book and i was not disappointed. the story is exactly what would you expect after book 1 introduced us to the characters and the core story. i LOVED it. it has real life problems, tragedies affecting everybody, rich or poor and in all this love happens. when it does, the burts of emotions is amplified 10000 times. steamy passion complements the book perfectly. the book is well written and the dialogues sound so real, exactly what you would imagine longlife friends/brothers would actually talk to each other in real life. the flashbacks were intense and i got emotional a few times. Thomas' performance was absolutely outstanding. his voice variations and how his effortless job in reading full chapters with an unnatural tone is remarkable. the book was very good, but he made it perfect.

Book 2 Standalone

Omgoodness I love this book too! It was a crazy roller coaster but I enjoyed every minute. The real life experiences you feel in this book will reel you in. I love the character dynamics. I can’t say enough about Thomas Locklear, he is an amazing voice actor with all the voices you can ask for. You know every character just by their different voices. This is a standalone but more fun in order. I definitely recommend this book/series. 🎧 Audiobook Obsession

Devilishly good.!

Ok I have a confession to make..... I am a Forgotten Legacy groupie.!!
I swear to the heavens above this series is one of the best Rockstar Romances I have ever read.
Seth and Riley are Amazing!! This is an age gap trope but sometimes I felt that Riley was much more mature than Seth. What has the patience of a saint and an understanding that Seth needed desperately if he was ever going to start living .
L.Ann just leaves me speechless with her incredible stories which weave there way into your heart and soul,making me fall hopelessly in Love with her writing and with her characters.
Thomas Lockclear is just out isn't his world narrating this series,giving each character their own identity with his voices .I Love him he is Magic !!
I Loved this book,it had me in such a spiral of emotions and I am so happy Seth found his Love , a love he deserves.
Brilliant 5 Stars .I

Dark, disturbing and very engaging.

L.Ann you’ve done it again! This is a great listen- although it has to be said that when the narrator tries to do an french accent, he definitely sounds more German. This book made me laugh and cry. I can’t wait for the next one.

Legaxy

Thomas Locklear voice is amazing, his range in characters and making you feel the joy and pain.

The chemistry between Seth and Riley is high. You will be completely sucked in. Some of the subjects are tough, but dealt so well.
