The Rooster Club, The Best Cocks in Town by N.M. CatalanoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Rooster Club was a different read. Yes it has romance and sex but it also shows the seedy side of the 80's and early 90's. The dark side of the club life that I lived. Yep 80's girl all the way, big hair and all. The cocaine deals and cocaine use which was rampant at that time. The promiscuity of men and women. Addiction and illness. It was kind of like the 60's on steroids.
Michael and Natalie meet young and have a strong connection. Natalie is a sweet innocent young lady that has ambitions for her life. She falls hard for Michael. Michael has great intentions but falls into a bad scene and loses his way and broke Natalie's heart in the process.
Years later they reconnect.
Catalano gives us the entire disco scene; clothes, lingo, lights, dancing and drugs. Oh and the club owners in sleazy polyester suits! Loved.
I laughed at the cocky boys, cringed at some of the hairy situations they got themselves into and shed a tear at the mistakes made.
An all around great read with some real life situations.
I received a copy for an honest review.
