Cover Reveal ~ Unplugged by Lisa Swallow



TITLE: Unplugged (Blue Phoenix, #3)
AUTHOR: Lisa Swallow 
RELEASE DATE: September 29th 
GENRE: Contemporary Romance  






Synopsis

"A rock star doesn't return to his humble beginnings and whisk away the girl he

kissed once. Especially if she has a four year old and her relationship status is 'it's 

complicated'."

Blue Phoenix bass player, Liam Oliver discovers pictures of his fiancée with 

another man and his world crashes around him. He packs up his humiliation and 

hurt and flies back to his Welsh family home for Christmas.

Cerys Edwards once had pictures of Liam Oliver covering her bedroom wall. Her 

best friend’s big brother never gave her the time of day when they were growing 

up. When she was fifteen, he left town leaving Cerys with her fantasies. Now he’s 

back. The problem is, she has a daughter and a broken relationship of her own.

In the world of his Christmas past, Cerys and Liam reconnect. Are they two hurt 

people looking for comfort in a time of heartbreak or does Cerys have a place in 

Liam’s future too? 

Months later and unplugged from his Blue Phoenix lifestyle, Liam reconnects 

with Cerys. He discovers Cerys’s world is full of complications he never expected 

– including Ella’s father who isn’t happy about being replaced by a rock star. 

Unplugged is more than a rock star romance. Liam isn’t dark and brooding like 

Dylan, or a bad boy like Jem but a fiercely loyal man with a big heart. This is a 

story of love, family and unexpected bonds made that can’t be broken. 

This is book three of the Blue Phoenix series. It can be read as a standalone but has 

minor spoilers for books one and two.


Extract



Our faces touch, his rough cheek against my forehead, and I know if I 

move my head a few centimetres, our mouths will meet and our worlds will shift.

"Is kissing you still wrong?" I ask.

"Your lips are meant to be on mine." He moves his face. The static 

charge of our mouths so close and the snow drifting onto our bodies drag us 

into a surreal world. The shift happens. I slide my cheek along his, the stubble 

scratching my skin as my lips meet the edge of his.

The world is covered in white, hidden from reality; a reality that I hate 

currently. I can escape for an evening, maybe a few days, and allow his blizzard 

to overwhelm me. If life is the same struggle when everything melts away again, 

a few moments lost in a fantasy after months of feeling worthless are what I need 

and worth the consequences.

Liam digs his hand into my hair and crashes his mouth against mine. 

I gasp in surprise at the force as he delves his tongue into my mouth, sliding 

against mine. When Liam kissed me in the bedroom the other day, there was a 

tension in him where he held back part of himself. Was this because Liam knew 

I did too? This time the world falls away completely as we kiss frantically, noses 

bumping as he pulls me into the snowstorm that is Liam Oliver. 

Liam moves to kiss my cheeks, a delicious scrape against my skin as his 

hot lips burn into my cool neck. He slides a hand around my waist, beneath my 

coat and holds me against him. Convinced my legs are going to give way and 

cursing the lack of walls for Liam to press me against, I grip his sleeve. 

Liam nudges his nose back across my face, hot breath mingling with mine 

and misting in the air. “Definitely feels right,” he whispers.

Then Liam kisses me so gently that he takes my soul and pulls it apart. My 

head spins as the intensity of the slow kiss fills me with a craving for this man 

that will never be satiated. This is more than feeling right, this is our hearts open 

and raw finding their way together.

Which means when they’re torn apart again the pain will kill me. 

The heat we create counteracts the falling temperature around us but the 


cold of reality isn't far. I pull my face away; I need to pull myself out of this.
