About this listen
Keeping up the rock star image ain’t easy, but someone’s gotta show these fakers how it’s done.
Hotel-room-trashing tantrums? Check. Daddy issues galore? Check. Glitz, glamour and general debauchery? I wrote the f**king book.
I’m a textbook bad boy rockstar cliche, and I’ve never claimed to be anything else. Hell, I own it. At least, I did, until he came along: Mr. Self-Righteous who acts more like a priest than a drummer. Now he’s my bodyguard and the guy in charge of making sure I don’t OD before the tour ends.
Oh, right. I also have a crazy stalker who’s been obsessed with me since I was a kid. So that’s fun.
It doesn’t take long to figure out Cash is more of a danger than any freak with a shrine of me in his closet, and he’s way harder to shake. He’s managed to convince our band manager (AKA, the crappiest father ever) that he’s the only one who can protect me from my stalker and my own vices. Cash thinks I’m stuck with him while he forces me to get clean, but what starts out as a daddy/boy role play meant to freak him out turns into so much more than a game. For the first time ever, I don’t know who’s going to win, but I’m not going down without a fight.
My new job is a nightmare.
The name of that nightmare? Dante Jung, lead singer of the world-famous band Dante’s Infernal, living train wreck, and all-around brat. His manager hired me to be the new drummer for Dante’s Infernal... and his undercover bodyguard, since the singer has run everyone else off. The only problem is, I’m pretty sure Dante is more of a threat to himself than even his obsessed stalker. He drinks hard, parties harder, and he’s never turned down a lovesick groupie.
And there are a lot of those.
Dante is a brash, selfish, narcissistic douchebag. And he’s also a brilliant, devoted and passionate musician who can be unexpectedly vulnerable at times.
When he asks me to be his “daddy” for the month we’re stuck together, I’m shocked, but not for the reasons he thinks. Taming Dante is going to be one hell of a challenge, but he will break before I ever back down, no matter how undisciplined he is now. He doesn’t know what he’s in for, but he’s about to learn.

Starts out Excellent
Now, Taming Dante Written by: Joel Abernathy Narrated by: Iggy Toma, Cooper North started out with a bang. This bad boy rocker singer knocked my socks off. But, it totally fell flat on its ass, and let me say 180 doesn't begin to describe then end. It's like the author wrote the beginning, all stirred up and inspired. Then went on a Caribbean vacation and came back to finish the book that waited unfished. It sounded like you hated every word in the end like you couldn't wait for this to be done. Cooper's range of voice has definitely improved, in the last year, I have avoided his boring arse. Go! Cooper! I'm voting him as the fastest up-and-coming narrator of the year. Man, he really grew into himself and his voice is undeniably sexy. Iggy lost his sense of humor. Kill me already,,,

Really great
If anyone needs a Daddy, it’s definitely Dante!! Saying he’s a mess is an understatement!
I enjoyed this rockstar who has completely gone off the rails. And if the rockstar lifestyle of sex, drugs, and mayhem don’t kill him, his stalker might.
I especially loved when he petulantly suggested he and Cash play Daddy/Boy while he’s detoxing, thinking it would make Cash run in the other direction. When Cash doesn’t back down, the two are about to learn a little something about themselves.
They make a great pair. Dante is open and carefree, while Cash is more steady and strong, together they make a really great pair.
This was a fun story. A little rock n roll, a little mystery, a little kink…and a whole lot of self-discovery. Definitely an enjoyable read. And well done as an audiobook.
I always enjoy Iggy Toma as a narrator, and this was my first time with Cooper North, but he also did a great job. This audiobook undoubtedly made my work day a lot more pleasant.
