She makes my pulse race.

Effa’s the lead singer of the world-famous rock band, Luminous.
And I’m their new lighting tech, Kaden ‘Mercs’ Mercury.
Going on tour with an all-female rock band would be simple you’d think, but these girls aren’t an easy push-over.
All the while things back home are taking a turn for the worse, and I’m losing a battle of my own that might come back to bite me on the ass if I’m not careful. My only distraction from the ensuing chaos – a bubbly blonde lead singer, destined to brighten my life.
But with an all-male backup band, tensions are bound to run high when jealousy flares, and lines are blurred.
She sets my pulse racing, but am I enough to kickstart her heart?

I am a huge Rockstar Romance lover, so when I heard this novel surrounded around an all girl rock band I was immediately in! As for my rating and my review. I’m on the fence on how I’m going to approach this.

I had my likes, but I also had my dislikes.

I did enjoy Pulse, but it took me sooooo long to actually get into the storyline to the point of wanting to read more.

I liked the premise of an all girl rock band and I really liked the female protagonist Effa (Effervescent). I loved her hippie ways. However, It was a turn off being constantly reminded of her hippie ways and the fact that she is in fact a hippie.

I really enjoyed the male protagonist (Mercs) for the first half of the novel. He was sweet and endearing. He came across as the boy next door and I loved how he hated being far away from his family, but knew he had to work in order to provide for his Grandmother and his ill sister. But throughout the novel, his character suddenly morphed into an alpha asshole. Don’t get me wrong I love alpha ass characters, but only when the novel starts off with an alpha ass. Mercs seemed like a douche in the second part of this novel. Which ended up being an immediate turn off.

Oh my world is that a mighty cliffhanger…I hate cliffhangers, but this one has me FINALLY intrigued and wanting to see what happens next.

Overall,
I wanted to love Pulse but sadly (In my Opinion) this novel was just okay. I do plan on picking up the next book in the Luminous series called Breathe though. I kind of really NEED TO KNOW what happens next!
