Rock You — Candy J. Starr

Working for a cranky, old hermit in an isolated house sounds like Ruby's idea of heaven â€" but her boss isn't quite what she expects. Tex is a fugitive from the rock and roll world â€" a tragedy abruptly halted his career. No one knows why he quit, no one knows where he is.

The two of them live in the same house, avoiding each other, until Tex screws up, endangering their lives and forcing them to move into close quarters. Suddenly, the idea of human contact seems more appealing, if only with each other. The sanctuary they have built is enough for Ruby -- the man she grows to love is Tex the hermit, not Tex the rock star -- but the outside world encroaches.

She thinks their fledgling love can't shine brighter than the rock dream but can Ruby bear to let Tex go?
