Trusting Gibson: A Second Chance Rockstar Romance (Last Score Book 2) Kindle Edition

by K.L. Shandwick (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 468 ratings

Loving him is dangerous. But not loving him might destroy me.

Falling for Gibson Barclay was never part of the plan. He was chaos wrapped in a six-foot package of tattoos, fame, and temptation. But when fate threw us together—again—I realized there was more to the rock god than just groupies and headlines.

Now, I’m in his world. On tour. In love. And in danger.

My abusive ex is back—and he knows where I am.

Gibson says he’ll protect me. That I’m safe with him. But trusting anyone after what I’ve survived isn’t easy, especially when every girl in his orbit seems to want a piece of him. I want to believe him. I want to believe in us.

But the higher we climb, the harder we’ll fall—especially when the past refuses to stay buried.

Because when you give your heart to a man like Gibson Barclay, you don’t just risk getting hurt...

You risk losing everything.

Review

Wow, I never thought that this book could be better than the first, but I was so totally wrong. Trusting Gibson is so amazing, scary, emotional, made me want to jump into the book for more reasons then one and Gibson is so alpha male smoking hot! Amazing read and if you don't grab this series you are totally missing out! Book Boyfriend Hangover. There's twist, turns, and secrets that could destroy them both. Trust will determine the outcome, love can overpower it all, but the question remains, will they conquer the demons of the past? I recommend this series. It's well written with characters that will find their way into your heart. Indies Steal Our HeartsLife can be cruel sometimes but I also believe, everything happens for a reason. You can survive anything, overcome anything if you have the right people around you, who love and care for you no matter what.
There is humour in this book that had me laughing out loud. It is also a sexy read, some very intense moments. I was drawn in to continue turning the pages. I would love to read more of Gibson & Chloe's story. I hope there will be a book three. I couldn't possibly sum up this book with one word because it was, brilliant, sexy, funny, compelling. I loved it. Joanne Swinney JoandIsaLovesBooksThis is one love story you have to read. Once I started I couldn't put it down. It has all the elements of a perfect romantic love story..lust,drama,danger,love and the omg steamy sex!!
KL Shandwick your writing is so beautiful and always keeps me coming back for more. This is so much more than a 5 Star read.. you ROCK!! Amazon Kindle Customer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 Electrified Guitars for Trusting Gibson
    Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2016

    I read the first book over a year ago, so I didn’t remember a lot of specifics, but I remembered the brilliant plot line that brought Chloe and Gibson together initially. There are enough mentions to jump start my memory. However, I would highly recommend having read the first book before you start on this one as it does start right after the previous one ends, and the mentions are really just enough to jog the memory of those who read the first one and not enough to tell the full story.

    Gibson has decided that Chloe is THE ONE, but how does the world's biggest rock star, who has a very sordid history with a very large number of the female population - Chloe saw this first hand when he was a teenager before he even got signed - convince her their short time together has changed him. Chloe still feels he's only with her because the media outted her whereabouts to her abusive ex. That would be a big enough issue for any couple to try to overcome, but a string of women bearing down on her when they have to go back to his real world makes things that much harder, while he is doing everything he can to take care of her and make her feel safe. Throw in the fact that the ex she worked so hard to escape is still on the loose, it is easy enough to see how she could feel everything is being done out of guilt rather than love.

    I'm hesitant to go any further into details but a traumatic event occurs and shows everyone - except maybe Chloe herself, at least at first - just how dedicated he is to her. It is touching to see how he has changed - not for her, but because of her.

    I love the way Ms Shandwick portrays him as so typically male, so dense about so many things...such as his friend Morgan. If I didn’t like Chloe so much I could almost feel sorry for her. He is definitely an alpha male, but in a sweet and not controlling way, if that makes any sense. It's a steep learning curve for him, but for the most part he gets straight A's in becoming everything Chloe needs him to be.

    One difference I noticed, and probably the reason it took me so long to get around to reading this one, is that the editing in this one is so much better than the first book in the series. It was so much easier to read, and has left me hoping for a book three very soon.

    For mature audiences only due to explicit sexual content, and potential trigger warnings for stalking and kidnapping.

    I read both books Legacy and Trusting and I really enjoyed both of them. The story lines were fresh and totally kept my interest. I only gave it 4 stars because there were too many times where I felt paragraphs were repeated and there were some grammatical errors that bugged me.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An incredible follow-up to Gibson's Legacy
    Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    In Gibson's Legacy, the author introduced us to a hotter than sin rockstar by the name of Gibson who has a legacy that precedes him. We also got to meet Chloe, a former bar cleaner who fantasied with Gibson the moment she laid her eyes on him. Their story was that of star-crossed lovers who jump through hurdles and obstacles to find normalcy in their respective lives until a twist of fate reunites them many years later.

    Trusting Gibson takes off immediately where Gibson's Legacy concluded. What happens when two people - a larger than life rockstar, and a normal and kind troubled soul like Chloe - have to learn to find common ground, and accept terms alien to them in order to find happiness and fulfillment in a world full of chaos and confinement? You will have to read Trusting Gibson for answers.

    K.L. Shandwick, an eminency in the New Adult Contemporary Rockstar Romance genre returns like a force with her prolific prose and innate ability to tell a story. I truly admire Shandwick's storytelling and weaving in medicine and science in a romantic way. The dialogue is effective and natural, all while employing effortlessly the perfect balance between simplicity and complexity in situations that will leave you sitting at the edge of your seat and holding your breath.

    We learned so much about Gibson's thought processes and intelligence in Gibson's Legacy, but in Trusting Gibson, Shandwick shows us the human side of this enigmatic rocker with a heart larger than his fame - packing a fierce punch where it matters most: Your heart. This story was anything but predictable, the plot unexpected, and the twists and turns Shandwick put me through taught me to never assume her writing is cookie-cutter or formulaic. It is genuine and unique.

    Trusting Gibson is a swoon-worthy introspective work of literature that demands to be read. If you are looking for a smart rockstar with a heart, this is the book for you. Shandwick never disappoints in the sensual steamy department and those scenes had me fanning my face and squirming in my seat more than once. What's not to love about Gibson Barclay?

    This novel ends with a Happy Ever After, yet a part of me feels Shandwick is leaving The Last Score Series open-ended. Hopefully we get to see more of Chloe and Gibson in the near future. A girl can wish, right?

    Brava, Ms. Shandwick. Five Stars.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Gibson just gets better...
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 30, 2015

    After the end of the first book I could not wait for the second and i was not disappointed!
    The first book I absolutely loved, the second book I loved even more if that is possible! I have to say I love Gibson, definitely one of my top bbfs of all times!! This book had it all, the angst, the emotions, the HOT scenes, everything that you want from a hot Rock Star book!
    I won't give anything away because you really need to read this for yourselves to see how brilliant it is but I will say that this book gave even more depth into Gibson's character, it showed the reader his personal side, his thoughts and feelings and fears, not just what he is as a rock star. I loved this because it made him seem so much more real and not just the famous person that he is to the world. You could clearly see his love for Chloe, what a decent man he is always trying to be towards her and how much he really is trying to earn her trust and hep her put all her fears behind her after the bad relationship with Kace.
    Chloe definitely came into herself more in this book as well, it showed her as the strong sassy girl that she is, how after everything she dealt with, and had to deal with in this book, actually made her stronger and realise how much she loved Gibson. She allowed herself to trust him and to let her heart lead her despite the risk it was for her to make.
    Again it had the dual POV's which I really love, it gives us so much more into their characters and we as a reader understands their thoughts and feelings much better. This book had a major turn in it which I really wasn't expecting, but then I like this because it wasn't predictable at all!
    The ending was lovely and if KL decides to do another book about Gibson and Chloe I would definitely be reading it!!
    Overall I think this is a brilliant series and totally worth the 5*. Highly recommend it!!

    I absolutely loved Gibson's Legacy and couldn't wait to read Trusting Gibson, which finishes the story of Gibson and Chloe.

    Wow, and what ending it was, the characters developed as did the story. I loved the angst and the love and the music. I will not tell you anything about the story, you just have to read it, don't want to give anything away.

    I gave it 4 stars purely as for me there was a little too much sex. Now don't get me wrong I am no prude and love a good sex scene in a book, I just felt they slightly over rode the story. However that is just my opinion. As far as the rest of the story went it was awesome. Loved it.

    Definite must read after you have read Gibson's Legacy.

    I prefered the second book than the first, there was less alternate point of views with repetition of the story just read, the flowing of story was far better in that sense than in the first.
    I stay and read till the end because of the two main characters, they were well designed. The style is still to improve but not the worst I've read in this genre. Far from it. I appreciated a lot that the book has been reviewed, it was really visible and stopped less the reading! it was far less annoying than in the first book. I counsel it to buy! go get it! ;) you will enjoy your time.

    Oh my goodness this is so good, the first book was brilliant but Trusting Gibson was even better, I loved how it opened up straight off the back of Gibson's Legacy.
    What I particularly like K.L.Shandwick style she gets the balance spot on, Gibson and Chloe's story unfolds beautifully there's such a level of hesitation all the way through, it's touch and go with them and you desperately want things to work out, the story is proportioned really well.
    Just when you think it can't get any worse the inevitable happens and the story becomes almost torturous and unbearable to read because you feel absolutely everything that Gibson is feeling and going through it's portrayed so well.
    I have been so consumed with Gibson and Chloe's story that I didn't want it to end, I just wish there could be a 3rd book, this Author has got a superb way with words and yes I'm talking about Gibson and all his sexy talk and banter he's defiantly one of my favourites..!!
    The ending didn't feel rushed at all, it all played out beautifully but you still find yourself holding your breath at times.
    I honestly can't praise this series enough if you want a scorching hot but very tense and on the edge read then this is it without a doubt, as I've said it's extremely well written you will not be disappointed.
    Thank you for this fabulous series..
