This is a fantastic, gripping read, with a deeply tortured wounded hero and a strong heroine.
I loved the portrait of Lennon, the troubled drummer, who is yet to find his major ultimate challenge in this story, and Georgia, the very contemporary successful woman – an extraordinary pediatric neurosurgeon no less – with whom he will seek (and find) redemption.
One of the things I really appreciated was the realistic and seemingly well researched approach to Lennon’s disability and him overcoming it (all the adaptations are well incorporated into the plot) as well as to Georgia’s very special work and its excruciating demands. I liked the musical context too and the different musical textures and tastes the story provided.
There are some powerful scenes, as compelling and moving as they’re so visual and cinematic, such as the road accident or at the hospital when Cole realizes the magnitude of what he has lost.
I found the relationship a bit rushed, them jumping to sex somehow at odds with Lennon’s devastating injury, still I loved these two together, how they met (just excellent!) and how they worked through their problems and divergences.

This book is dark and takes on some seriously deep personal issues and does it well. I haven't read the other books in this series but if this book is any indication I will be reading them.

**Was kindly given an ARC of this beaut for an honest review**

OH MY GOD!! what can I say except— I had All the motherfucking feels reading this book, Scarlett.you took shit to another level babe! It had everything— and as much as love and adore your books, This is shit, my fave book! And of course Lennon is crazy hot ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love Scarlett Cole. Having said that, this book is my first experience with this series. My oh my ....why did I wait so long? The romance was sweet, heart wrenching and definitely spicy. What great afternoon I spent reading about these two people finding eachother. I am going to have to run out and grab the other books in the series.

There are very few things which excite me and give me as much pleasure as a new Scarlett Cole novel. Ever since reading her first novel I have been a HUGE fan!! This seems to be her final Preload novel. In a way I am upset to see the series come to end while loving how it ended. None of the members of Preload had happy pasts and they were all damaged in some way. Yet Scarlett Cole has not only accomplished to give us stories that are emotional and sexy at the same time, but that also show us that with the love of the right woman, a man can find redemption and peace and a happily ever after.

Lennon always seemed to have a dark demeanour. Coming from a very traumatic and painful childhood Lennon has always found it hard to find and believe in love. He believes that not only is he unlovable but that he is incapable of loving. It seems that he has to loose the one thing that has defined him his whole life to finally be able to see the love and support around him. To find that one woman who will help him fight his demons and truly show him how precious he really is.

Dr. Georgia Starr may seem like she has the perfect life from the outside, but she has a big family that has never supported her or valued her. The only person who ever truly cared about her was her late grandfather. She comes from a long line of neurosurgeons but no matter what she does, her family will never give her the acknowledgement and praise that she rightfully deserves. Her whole life changes when a horrific traffic accident takes place right before her very eyes and she hurries to help those in the bus. The last thing she expects to find is the love of her life - a man who seems to have everything, but the will to survive and live.

As always Scarlett Cole has gone into a lot of research to make not only the heroine, Georgia, a believable neurosurgeon, but has also given us an uncensored view into the psyche of a man who has survived his early childhood with no love and not even the most basic of human interaction to become a famous rockstar. A man whose whole identity is defined by his love for the drums that he plays and how he now has to deal with the new state of his life and body. Heartwarming, heartbreaking, tender, emotional, sensual and sexy are just a few words to describe “Lennon Reborn”. If I could give it more than five stars, I would. Absolutely loved it!!!

I am so sad to say goodbye to this amazing cast of characters. I loved SCT and I’ve loved the Preload series. Every book has been fantastic. I’ve been waiting for Lennon’s story and it is a doozy! I shed so many tears throughout this book. It’s heartbreaking and beautiful. I wanted to climb into the pages and just hold Lennon!
If you’re not familiar with this series, I highly recommend starting right at beginning with the Second Circle Tattoo series. It leads into this awesome spinoff series and all 8 books are near and dear to my heart.

OH MY!!!! This was so good, but I seriously wanted to smack Ms. Cole at the beginning. I cried several times while reading Lennon's HEA. Georgia was so good for Lennon. They smoked it up in the bedroom and various other places. Her father is a real sh*t head...big, huge arse. Loved seeing all the other members of Preload and their ladies. I'm so sad there's no more members to read about.

Easily a 5 star read.
Lennon and Georgia's story was so much more than I thought it was going to be. Lennon has been a hard nut to crack throughout this series, we always knew that he had some pretty heavy issues to deal with (as all of the guys do) But Lennon buried his issues deep and only let his brothers into his world.
I have to say, that Lennon's childhood was devastatingly terrible. Thank goodness for Maisey, Ellen and the rest of the Preload brothers that have loved Lennon even when he felt completely unloveable.

Enter Dr. Georgia Starr, in the right place at the right time, she encounters the whole Preload gang. During that encounter, she connects with Lennon in a moment of danger and disaster and their lives are never the same.

Lennon gives Georgia the ability to relax and slow down. In turn, she gives Lennon a sense of comfort and calm that he has never experienced.

I truly adored Lennon and Georgia's love story but I also enjoyed Lennon's personal transformation. While he had his setbacks, he realized in order to move on and have a chance at a fulfilling life with Georgia, he had to do the work on himself.

Lennon Reborn was everything I'd hoped it would be a Ms. Cole gave Lennon the HEA he so richly deserved.

This story had my interest from the first page and I did not put this book down until I had read it cover to cover. Lennon’s story had me on a roller coaster of emotions. My heart was broken for him at times. He had more love than he realized and was stronger then he knew. Though Gia frustrated me at times, I loved how she just saw through Lennon. She saw him and treated him accordingly. I enjoyed this story, though parts broke my heart to read. This was a good read.
ARC given in exchange for an honest review.

This had SO MUCH POTENTIAL to be a great book. Lennon was the mystery character that I personally wanted to know everything about...and it was so underwhelming. Like really, really underwhelming.

The start was good. The setup for how he meets Georgia and all that. Except one second he's like "I fucking hate her" and then the next they're sipping coffee together on her day off? That made no sense. Where was his fight? Where was the torture? Where was her making him believe he was worth living? I mean, he's just been through this tragic ordeal where he basically begs a stranger to let him die, and she doesn't, and the everything is fine? I mean, she tried to show some turmoil there but it felt forced. It didn't work at all. I didn't FEEL any of it, and with this sort of plot I expected to feel.

And then suddenly they're in love? Like, it just seemed rushed and not well thought out for me and though I was looking forward to this book, I didn't enjoy it at all. I wanted it to be over so I could move on to better things, and that makes me sad because I like Scarlett Cole's work most times, but these last few books have been less than stellar for me.

So Lennon is the last member of the band to get a book - so definitely not a standalone!! - and man was it a good book to finish the series with.

Like the other members Lennon had what you would call a messed up childhood and things seem to go from bad to seventh circle of hell for Lennon just as all the other members' lives seem to being going rosy

This is not a happy, cheerful, everything is always rosy book (especially at the start) but I did enjoy it... Lennon is one of those characters you just want to hug and hope that everything gets better for him (luckily that part is happy cheerful)

So this series started as a spin-off from another of Cole's that I devoured but now I want to know... what comes next in this world!!!

When I was a teen (long before Kindles and other e-readers), when I read a book that I absolutely adored, I would carry it around with me for days, even sleep with it under my pillow, in some sappy attempt to keep it in my heart. I would read my favorite passages over and over again. This beautiful, heart-wrenching story brought back those memories and made me long for that connection with a physical book. It's not as easy to flip around in a Kindle, nor is it comfy under my pillow. Even so, I know that this story, Lennon and Georgia, and heck, the whole dang group from Preload, will be with me for a long, long time. You know how when you see a movie sequel and it's hardly ever as good as the first? I find that many book series are that way as well. But not this series. Ms. Cole defies logic in that these books have each either gotten better or been at least as good as the previous one. Nonetheless, there was a part of me that expected this one to let me down because I was looking so, so forward to Lennon's story. Yet, Ms. Cole worked her voodoo once again and created the most emotional, riveting story yet. I am not one of those readers that goes for the rock star books, so I don't have much to compare this to in that sense, but I can't imagine anything in that trope coming even close to this book, or this entire series. I know I'm not doing a good job of describing how great this book is because I'm blubbering with emotion, so if you still aren't sure about it, try reading a few pages. You'll get sucked right in. And you'll be glad you did.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an ARC for review.

What an amazing book! Scarlett Cole really knocked it out of the park with this book. I couldn't put this book down until I finished it. I read it in one sitting. Sad that it ended. This book has it all. It hit all my emotions. I loved both of the main characters, they were amazing. This book was so much more than I expected. I would recommend this book.

This is the first book by Ms Cole that I have read. I couldn’t stop reading it. Georgia and Lennon are amazing together. You’ll want tissues nearby. And the sex is phenomenal. I might have to go back and read the first ones.
Georgia is a pediatric neurosurgeon and her family are all neurosurgeons. She is going to her parents and comes up on a bus wreck. 
Lennon is the drummer for Preload and grew up in a foster home with the other members of the band. He thinks he’s not good enough to be loved. When the bus wrecks he loses one of his arms up to the elbow. He is moody, hateful, and wishes they had let him die. Until Georgia comes and sees how he’s doing. She is the one person who doesn’t pity him and just wants to help.
She moves him into her apartment building and continues to stand by him no matter how bad he acts. The more time they spend together the more Georgia falls for the rocker. But because of his childhood he doesn’t think he’s capable of loving her back or at least give her the words. When he finally decides to go back to Toronto, he asks Georgia to go but she loves New York and her job, family not so much. Will she lose him or will she take a chance and finally do what she wants and needs?

I have been DYING for Lennon's book. (Mostly to find out why he was always such a jerk all the time.) Perfectly heartbreaking story. Loved Georgia and Lennon together.

OMG what a book. Made me heart broken all the way through. Lennon's childhood , there was so much trama. Georgia meets his at his lowest point and brings out the best in him. But his mind keeps telling him she will leave. This series has been amazing series to read. Looking forward to see what is next for Scarlett Cole.

Ok, this is deepest feeliest rock star romance book I've ever read! I read this before the rest of the series, so if you haven't read them, don't delay. But, you can check out Lennon and his recognition that he's capable of physical and emotional recovery. Loved both of these characters so much. This was a "read in one sitting" book with amazing depth. I loved it. Now, I circle back around for the rest of the series.
