HIM: Some call me the devil. I’ve had many names. I simply live at the crossroads and make deals… Mortals are so fun to play with. Desperate, hungry little things. And everyone says yes to my deals. Everyone. ...Until her. Now I crave her soul. She has made me the desperate thing. So I'll have my revenge.
LUNA: Once I stood at a crossroads and was offered the world in exchange for my soul. And I said no, a soul is too precious to ever trade! But if I was ever asked again? What wouldn’t I give, if only to feel their touch…? My bandmates. All night, all day, I dream of them. ALL of them. At once. Touching and being touched by them. They see me as their little sister, though. At least they have until now…
But everything comes at a price. What do you do when the devil has you in his sights?

Stasia was born in Georgia, grew up in Texas, recently spent a freezing five-year stint in Minnesota, and now is happily planted in sunny California, which she will never, ever leave.
She loves writing, reading, listening to podcasts, and has recently taken up biking after a twenty-year sabbatical (and has the bumps and bruises to prove it). She lives with her own personal cheerleader, aka, her handsome husband, and their teenage son. Wow. Typing that makes her feel old. And writing about herself in the third person makes her feel a little like a nutjob, but ahem! Where were we?
Stasia’s drawn to romantic stories that don’t take the easy way out. She wants to see beneath people’s veneer and poke into their dark places, their twisted motives, and their deepest desires. Basically, she wants to create characters that make readers alternately laugh, cry ugly tears, want to toss their kindles across the room, and then declare they have a new FBB (forever book boyfriend).
I'm so excited about this one. Villains as heros...um, yes please :) :) :) Having a blast finishing up writing it. Can't wait for y'all to find out the twists and surprises <3
Holy hotness - this book is dirty, fast paced and ended WAY TOO QUICKLY!! Don't let the knowledge of this being a quick read scare you away because it definitely won't disappoint. Stasia pulled me from the beginning with the omnious "Him" and kept me glued to my kindle as she introduced Luna, Bishop, Mason, Cash and Tank. I LOVE how she built the mystery and so much sexual tension that it had me panting, while throwing in suspenseful moments to keep me turning the pages - don't even get me started on the bigger than life twist mixed with the heart stopping cliffhanger. Stasia has me hooked on this - I really enjoyed how she plotted this out and got me to connect and sympathize with almost every single character. My favorite thing is that this story made me think of the blues legend Robert Johnson, there's been so many takes on his story and this one seems to be another but with just so much more. I am so excited to see where she takes this!
This was my first book by Stasia Black and it just didn’t do it for me.
I’m all for the smutty and reverse harem, but the storyline and characters had no dynamic. The story did not flow as other books tend to do and I feel like there was a missing component in the overall dynamic between the characters.
The writing was ok in my opinion, but could have definitely been better.
I’m never one to give a book such a low rating, but for me two stars means that there may have been a few moments that I liked. This rating is often reserved for books that are lacking in some areas—writing, characterization, and/or problematic plot lines. But there may have been some moments of enjoyment for me.
A quick, very smutty read. Lots of kinks are explored, and I’m curious to see where the author takes it after the cliffhanger, but overall it wasn't for me.
What did I just read? Rock stars who think they are above and beyond everyone else! This story was mind blowing, unexpected and so twisted I am still in awe of Stasia Black and her story writing expertise! Luna, the drummer of Faust, has had a very difficult life and is so happy to be a part of this rock group. But she secretly covets the men she plays in the band with. Bishop, Mason, Cash and Tank, her band members, are all attractive men and she would love to be with all of them. One night it becomes clear that they all feel the same. But there is something dark and sinister playing behind the scenes. Stasia, this story was so unique and unexpected that I am still reeling from what I read!
This book is a twisted dark tail that you will not see what's coming at the end. This is a quick read with an interesting plot twist and lots of smut. Luna, Mace, Bishop, Cash, Tank make up the band called Faust. Luna has had a very difficult life and is so happy to be a part of this rock band. But she secretly wants the guy's Bishop, Mason, Cash and Tank, and she finds out one night it becomes clear that they all feel the same, but they soon realize that there is something dark and sinister playing behind the scenes. The twist at the end was definitely a surprise so I’m intrigued to see what will happen next.
Interesting. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. The main characters so prove this. I’m confused because we really don’t get what Luna was bargaining with the devil for. He is a vengeful person. It’s twisted fir sure. It just seemed to be missing something no sure what. I only felt her connection to Tank and Mason. Cash was like an extra and Bishop has a strange vibe. It is a cliffhanger and yes I want to see what will happen.
Luna, Bishop, Mason, Cash, and Tank are members of Faust a famous rock group. They all have secrets and are being led by him. She said no to him and he doesn’t like that so now he’s coming after her. Six years the band has been fighting the attraction between them. The guys made a deal that they wouldn’t date her. Bishop found a loophole. Great characters and storyline Highly recommended Amazing Book. Check your trigger warnings and ends on a cliffhanger. I can’t wait to see where this goes. So good. Secrets and more secrets.
Oh my god! I normally don’t read PRN but wholly sh*t that was good!! So many twists and turns I loved it! It was fast paced but so good and the spice omg😍 definitely can’t wait for the next one!!
Intensely gripping all around Rockstar Gods by Stasia Black is full steam ahead dark deliciousness that you can just tell is going to take you on a decadent and twisted path of debauchery. Luna is spunky and full of sass while also filled with longing. As she pines for more with her bandmates, she also struggles when alone, but fears seeking them out when they are home. Bishop is the Hero villain you love to hate, yet hate to love. His dark dominance and free for all attitude leads this band to its inevitable reverse harem/poly-relationship. I love how diverse these characters are and each one has their own deeply significant background to the main plot of this book. It's also highly interesting in that these characters know each other quite well, but just now reaching the point where their interactions shift from platonic to decidedly intimate. Overall, from word one I was hooked on the characters and I just knew that Ms. Stasia was going to throw a major curve. The cliffhanger ending has my heart rate skyrocketing as the plot just twisted and thickened, deeper into the darkness that is constantly hanging over them like a shroud. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review.
This quick read follows the 5 members of the rockband Faust. Each have had their own interaction with a shadowy figure at the crossroads but only 1 was brave enough to turn him down. Luna, our badass drummer has always pined for her fellow band mates and is now ready to take it to the next level. With some spicy scene and talk of triggering topics, definitely check out the content warning before reading! The end of the book will not disappoint with spice and shock, happy reading!
Stasia Black has taken me for a ride once again and given me a highly unexpected story. The rollercoaster ride and the unexpected twist at the end left me with my mouth agape. Cash, Tank, Mason, Luna and Bishop were all struggling with their own inner turmoil, but wow, I'm just floored by the revelation and how it took place. If you're a fan of Supernatural and love a good Rockstar RH, this is the book for you.
The crossroads in life we meet, we choose which pathway will lead us to life, love and happiness; all with stipulations. What would you do if given a choice? A choice given by a God in his shadowy abode? Luna said no, a mortal told him no.... So, he gave her the world to be able to take it from her.
The band, Faust: Mace, the pianist, sweet and poetic Bishop, the lead singer, arrogantly dark persona Cash, the lead guitarist, joker Tank, the bass guitarist, silent and serious Luna, the drummer, treated as their little sister
Oh how the mighty fall when the souless members are on the chopping block. What goes up, must come down as they crash and burn in a blaze of glory.
Author delves into each member; their pasts, their soulessness, their present. Written with no rules, no boundaries and lots of steam riddled with humiliation kinks. All for one purpose, to own her.
I have to admit, reading this prequel/novella, I was waiting for the story to kick in. It begins with 'Him', the entity that granted the requests of 4 of the 5 members of Faust, a rock group.
We key in on one pivotal night, when the 5th member initiates the harem. After this, we learn more about the background of the group, especially their weaknesses and the 'why' of their requests to 'Him'.
And then the story twists in the final scenes, and the ending absolutely left me speechless! I didn't see it coming, and I always see these coming! Honestly, I was on the fence as to whether I'd read the next book in this series, but this ending nailed it down. Made me rethink and look at the novella in a completely different light. Great character study of 'Him' the silent presence in the story.

I seen this author on IG and figured it looked like a quick read. It was well written but yet lengthy more then I believed at first. Her peak clip on her IG had me intrigued enough to download it. I couldn't put the book down! Easy to understand what was going on and the end was a OMG ending!!! I can not to dive further into this author!!
“The light in our darkness. The moon in our night.”
Once Luna stood at a crossroads and was offered the world in exchange for her soul. Thinking a soul was too precious to give up, she said no. But what if she was ever asked again, would her answer change now that she has them? Her bandmates are the only family Luna has ever known & she loves them, in more ways than one. But everything comes with a price, is Luna willing to pay it?
“I was bad at being alone.”
I loveee seeing how the dynamics between the bandmates changed throughout the books, especially with Bishop & Mason! I liked that every member of the band has their own secrets & it’s all slowly revealed! And the ending brought everything full circle!
Note: check TW/CW! This is a standalone. This book contains reverse harem elements, gambling & themes that are not suitable for everyone.
Thank you to Stasia Black and Peachy Keens for this ARC copy. This review was written honestly & voluntarily based on my own enjoyment of the book.
Interesting to say the least. Twisted events going on with lots of temptations. It is a tad jumbled up and we know the devil wants revenge but not sure what Lina’s story is with him. Yes she turned him down but what did he offer? I know sex but there had to be more to it. Tank and Mason’s paths were paved with good intentions but we all know how that goes. I wonder how it’s all going to go down.
A short story of what can happen when you make a deal with the devil. While this book was intriguing and captured my interest, it isn’t for everyone. Be sure and read the trigger warnings. and with twists along the way, Ms. Black has given me a pause, that do they walk among us?
Everything readers should expect from Stasia Black!! A very interesting storyline, only slightly predictable. Perfectly $inful and I can’t wait to read the next one.
Alright, you want a short and smutty novella? This is it. This is freaking it. I was so entertained while reading this, and I’m mad at myself for not reading it sooner. I absolutely loved Bishop (although he was a bit prickish) The characters were all cool and really had their own voice/personality that really separated them from one another. The smut was really fun to read (that pegging scene WOW)
This book is excellent to go in blind with! I wish the ending was strung out a liiiiitttle more with the plot twist/reveal. But it still shocked the hell out of me. What a wild ride.
Who rejects an offer by Mephistopheles? Luna. That’s who, she rejected his offer and he send her back, guess she didn’t much to lose after all! But if all he wants is her soul why send her back? This book was amazingly written and worth your time to read! Thank you PeachyKeens and Stasia Black for the advanced reader copy of this novel and I can’t wait to read more!
literally other than like a few spelling errors the plot the smut the everything was so good and the plot twist absolutely blew my mind i wanted to keep reading but unfortunately the book ended. end of the day i loved this book.
Before becoming the drummer for Faust, Luna stood at a crossroads. When she’s offered a deal in exchange for her soul, she denies HIM.
She’s the only one to ever turn down a deal. Now he’s out for her soul and he’ll have is revenge…
Mind Blown! Rockstar Gods is full of unexpected twists and turns. Not to mention it’s smutty as hell. Ack, and that cliffhanger…what?!! Interested in seeing what happens in the next book.
Holly hell what did I just read? I’m pulling at my hair at the ending, mind flipping blown. I can’t explain how good this book is! It’s such a smutty book but with an actual story behind it, it’s not all smut (even though it’s pretty smutty 😂), absolutely cannot wait for the next book! I’m excited to see what’s in store for the MC, her men, and the devil in disguise 😈.
First book I've read by this author and it won't be my last. I really need that next book , that ending. I need to know what's happened. I loved Luna so much.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.... I have never been so surprised or blindsided by a twist EVER. Y'all this is like "I see dead people" kind of epic surprises. I absolutely love the originality of this story and love even more seeing a woman as the drummer of a rock band! This book is HOT y'all! There's so much more I want to say but can't because I will not be the one to ruin this book for anyone. Message me when you are done so we can be mind blown together. Can't wait for the next!
Interesting story of selfish people selling their souls to the devil for what they want. All except Luna, and the devil didn’t take to kindly to her saying No. He’s after her to make her beg. She realizes who He is at the very end. I’m curious to see where this is going to go.
This is a solid 4.5 ⭐️ read for me! I received an ARC of this book and I’m so happy that I did. I’ve devoured this in one sitting. The FFC is super sassy and very powerful in her own right. This is a reverse harem one of my favorite and each main male characters has shit going on and a heck of a backstory which helps create some depth in the story. I’m happy that you told me in the very beginning that you were going to throw me off a cliff that helped lol. So ready for the next installment in the series.
Thank you to PeachyKeens and Stasia Black for this eARC! I received this in return for an honest review.
Luna is the drummer of Faust. But before Faust, she was just a lonely girl being offered a deal in exchange for her soul to be given to HIM. But she is the only one he’s encountered that denies him and that means he’s going to seek his revenge by finding a way to get what he wants from her.
This is very reverse harem style, with lots of twists, and turns. I liked how quick the read was and how spicy it got. Only notes are that the ending is kind of lack luster for what could’ve been done but it’s also decent. If I could give 4.5 I would!
