Closer, the stunning conclusion to the Taint Duet from USA Today bestselling author Carmen Jenner is LIVE!
Levi Quinn has it all—money, groupies, a panty-melting smile, and a really big d*ck.
At least, he had it all. Until an angry redhead joined the Taint world tour and turned his life upside-down. Levi fell in love with her. His bandmate did too. It did not end well.
Brielle Kagawa doesn’t keep company with rock stars, but when this gifted cellist finds herself kicked out of the Orchestre de Parisan all-expenses-paid gig in the south of France seems too good to be true.
Because it is.
The man footing the bill might be a disorderly drunk, but he has an offer she can’t refuse—stay in his chateau and play for the month. No strings attached.
Yeah right.
The truth about rock stars is that they’re awfully good players, but Levi isn’t the only one who knows how to master a set of strings.
He’s broken-hearted.
She doesn’t have a heart to break.

Closer is book 2 of the Taint duet. This book can be read as a standalone. I would however, recommend reading Revelry (Taint #1) first to get the full effect.
Levi is broken. After having the best MMF relationship with his band mate and the PA for the band, those two have gone their own way and left Levi broken. Spiraling out of control, drugs, booze, women, you name it. Anything to overcome the loss of the girl that made him feel.
Chucking all feelings out the window, Levi pulls up his big boy britches and goes to a very special event for one of his bandmates. There is a Cello playing beautiful music. Levi is drawn to not only the beautiful music but the beautiful woman playing.
While staying at the Chateau in France, nothing is clearer than Levi is destined for a mental breakdown. The only thing that helps him so far is ‘the dog’ and the housekeeper. The days that go by are like a time bomb waiting to go off.
Brielle is the gifted cellist who plays beautifully. Although she’s learned that in life, who you associate yourself with, can ultimately come back to bite you. She’s been hurt and now survives teaching the love she has for playing the Cello to her students.
Barely making ends meet after helping her parents out, Brielle accepts the job offered for 1 week at a Chateau in France, to play her cello anytime the new employer desires.
This book was fantastic! I devoured it page by page. There is something about a broken-down rocker that sucks me in every time! I was suffering right next to Levi throughout this entire book.

Never mind, I'll find someone like youuuuuuuuuuu
I wish nothing but the best for youuuuuuuuu
I swear as if Adele wrote/sang this song for Levi, the Axe-Man of Taint! The foot long guy who stole our hearts in Revelry, the douchebag smirking Bastard was just too much to handle in Book 1, wait till you see him in book 2. He'll make you laugh and make you weep your eyeballs out!
I started the book laughing as a fiasco takes place on a special day for the Band and then burst into sobs. A cello breaks and the splinters just embed into Levi's arse and spikes in his heart. ( come to me baby, I'll hug you)
I'm crying as I write this review, you owe me therapy and wine Carmen!!!!
I have read few books of Carmen before , and though this book doesn't carry the same tune and super comic mood like prior books, I loved this book the most. The range of emotions that Carmen spreads before us have you swinging from torture to torment and all the throes of anguish in between
Let me go on record to say that Carmen is a she devil, having no mercy at all on us poor readers. I cried, shed tears, sobbed, howled to the moon, hurt like a mother trucker then cried some more. The sheer heartbreak of this magnitude shouldn't be endured by any human, let alone my beloved Levi.
“Maybe a man broke my heart by asking a woman to marry him. And a woman broke my heart by saying yes.”
His anger, bitterness, sadness and hollow desperation makes him lash out and turn to the bottle. Having ruined the day, he flees and crashes in the middle of nowhere. Just loitering in the halls of The Chateau, he's a crazed maniac, a dejected lover, a man on the verge of giving up.
In sweeps a kindred spirit, Brielle Kagawa, a godsend or Levi-propositioned as the siren of cello. Her sole purpose is to lure the sadness away from Levi's heart. Together they wallow in misery and try to stay afloat in their sea of guilt and loneliness.
I’m drunk, heartsore, and all kinds of fucked up. If I had any sense left, I might be embarrassed. Good thing I drank all my sense away. I get nothing. Nothing but a pickled liver and an angry French girl.
While he grasps at straws of pitiful happiness, tragedies strike in succession and his downward spiral is just out of control.
Story of my life, right? I’m always chasing women, but none of them are ever chasing me.”
Forget women.
Forget France.
Forget everything that isn’t music, because she’s the only mistress who’s always been there for me when no one else was.
Well at least he got some songs out of his burning hell. Sweetest songs are written with darkest of inks. His pain and suffering had me crying THROUGH-EFFING-OUT!! Not one second was I not feeling gouged and dismembered. The words were blurry and soaked with my bucketsfull of tears.
“I told you once that when you found the right girl, it would break my heart.
L'artiste Con—The Con Artist, just got played by life. And he just broke my heart!
Oh and if the serrated knife didn't twist enough, Carmen just brings out the big swords too etch a fresh wound that I DID NOT SEE COMING !!!. Omg why does she hurt us again and again and why can't this pain just stop๐ญ
While reading I was pming Carmen, seriously I wanted to throw my kindle to the wall!!
Margeaux steps in as salvager and along with the Dog just about keeps everyone breathing.
Be sure to pick this book after you read Revelry and Be sure to Cuss loud. I'll come join you and we'll both cry and drink wine๐ญ
