As Ally rewinds the last year of her life, she knows two things. One, she’s never going to get what every Rock Chick should have—her own Hot Bunch guy. And two, she’s a Nightingale through and through. She just isn’t sure what to do about that.
But as her secrets are revealed, the men in her life react. Darius Tucker, a lifelong friend, as usual takes her back. Ren Zano, the man she loves, isn’t quite so sure. The Rock Chicks, Hot Bunch and the entire gang at Fortnum’s weigh in, and a Rock Chick Revolution starts brewing.
It’s up to Ally to control it and prove what she knows down to her bones.
She’s a Rock Chick, she deserves her hot guy and she’s going to keep the one she wants…
Because she’s a Nightingale.
Amanda's Review:
In the lyrics of Nelly Furtado..."Why must all good things come to an end?"
We finally get to the conclusion of the Rock Chicks and their Hot Bunch along with the many side characters that we've come to adore, enjoy and love. In this last installment we get Ally Nightingale and Ren Zano's HEA. Ally is very dependent, very bull headed, didn't have to answer to anyone but herself and because of this her and Zano have some problems. Zano Zano Zano. How you hurt and captivated me is beyond reason. Ren spoke freely. Sometimes they were hurtful words, he spoke "Alpha" and I lurved his dirty talk. One thing that I absolutely loved about Ren, besides watching himself having the S-E-X with Ally, is his apologies. As Ally would say, he IS the shit.
My favorite quote from him. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me." Oh my God. I stopped breathing. He wasn't done. "And you keep getting better." All together now...Le Sigh. As for the rest of the story we get all the other characters one way or another. The story tend to drag a bit but it didn't bother me none. It held my attention and that's what a great story does.
I really can't stress enough on how much I love and will miss this series. I laughed, got teary eyed, downloaded killer music, swooned and fell in love with the Rock Chicks and Hot Bunch. But hold the phone. There will be a spin off and you know it's gonna be good so we have to wait impatiently for that series.
Righteousness!
That is how I describe Rock Chick Revolution. KA is the
shit! She writes like no other and there will never be another like her. I
cried and cried when I read the acknowledgements because it was just beautiful
and cried some more while digging into the story because of so many things but
mostly because I kept thinking …THIS IS IT! No more Rock Chicks getting into
trouble (that we know about) and no more Hot Guys going in for the rescue (that
we can know about). Yes, I know that there is going to be a spinoff and it will
be fabulous but it still won’t be the same. I know that I will see the hot bunch
and hopefully the RC’s again in other series and that makes me happy but there
will always be a lingering sadness within me knowing that there won’t be a RC
9, 10, 11 and so on. I’m not going to talk about Ally and Ren because I can
just go nonstop about them so I will just list a few of my favorite lines/parts
from RCR.
“What the fuck?” he asked. “What?” I asked back. “What…” He took in a breath through his nose. “The.” He went on and kept scowling at me. “Fuck?” he finished tersely.
“What the fuck what?” I asked
”Dude, we hooked up. That’s it. Or that’s all I remember. But maybe I was drunker than I thought. Did I miss the part where you slid a ring on my finger?”
Ren had just demonstrated he was fluent in Asshole.
”You take the backs of that crew of yours like your blood flows through their veins. Indy may be their foundation, Daisy and Shirleen the emotional support. But you’re the backbone.”
”La, la, la, I’m not listening, la, la, la” I chanted.
“Oh God, Roxie’s talking about Hank and her doing the business. “
“You’re Ally. And I’m Ren.”
51% almost busted a gut from laughing so hard and my love for Luke; 93% my heart is breaking; 94% I died!!!!; 96% I’m alive again and oh so happy.

I do not even know where to begin because words just can not begin to describe all the emotions I felt with reading the final Rock Chick book. Once again Kristen Ashley showed why she is the ultimate Rock Chick and will never be topped.
Ally and Ren's relationship was a crazy ride, but would you expect anything else when it goes to Ally? Ally didn't disappoint in her Rock Chick ways. Ren, holy smoking shit, he isn't one of Lee's Badasses but he is a Badass in his own way. These two are perfect for each other, they have a connection that is perfect for them. Was their relationship perfect? HELL NO, but come on this is a Rock Chick book, if it didn't have the drama then it just wouldn't be right.
Rock Chick Revolution is, in my opinion, the perfect ending to this series, but have no fear Rock Chick fans, it appears that there will be a spin off that will include some of our favorite characters as well as some new Badass alpha males in our future. I will end this with a couple of my favorite quotes.
“It wasn’t perfect, none of
it.
But it was a fairytale.
And people needed to believe in
fairytales. Even flawed ones.
Maybe especially flawed ones.
And they needed to believe always.”
“Hear me, honey, I get what you’re doing, but I need you to know that you have nothing to make up for. You gave me you and that’s all the special I need.”
“Okay, I’d had a variety of Rock Chick chinwags where the girls let it all hang out about their guys and how they communicated in Asshole, but I’d never experienced it personally. And Ren had just demonstrated he was fluent in Asshole.
It must be said, I didn’t like it much.”
“You seem to have an aversion to the mall.”
His answer to that was, “Do I have a dick?”
I felt my lips curl up and I replied , “Yes, baby. You have a dick.”
“Then, yeah. I got an aversion to the mall.”
“Do you love me, Ally?” he asked in his sweet voice.
I stared into his eyes. I drew in a breath.
Then I answered, “Yes, Ren. I love you.”
All good things must
come to an end. And with that, we are saying good-bye to the Rock Chicks. Rock
Revolution is the story we’ve all been waiting for, Ally’s. Ally FINALLY gets
her hot bunch guy. She’s been watching everyone around her find their HEA and
she wants hers. The only problem? She’s not sure she’s going to get hers.
Ren and Ally are an
awesome couple. Ally isn’t the typical Rock Chick. She’s a cross between Rock
Chick and Lee badass. It’s a perfect combination for her. As a result of this,
her story is slightly different from the other Rock Chicks, as it should be. In
this one we get romance, closure, and happily ever afters. We get to see how all
the Rock Chicks and Hot Bunch are doing. We get to see how things are for them
when no one is chasing them, shooting at them, kidnapping, setting off car
bombs, etc. It’s a sweet story with tension, romance and little bit of
Smithie’s!
