-A reclusive rock star going through the motions-

Jake McKallister might have been a rock star, but he was no ordinary one. Surviving an unspeakable crime as a young teen had shaped him into a guarded workaholic, and he now lived his life trying to forget. If it hadn’t been for music and the redemption he found through it, he might not have survived. Career success came easily for him. Personal connections did not.

-A vivacious college student embracing life-

When outspoken and fun-loving Casey Caldwell was paired with the famously reserved musician for a friend’s wedding, she was prepared for the worst. What could they possibly have in common? She was a bubbly talker; he was a media-shy loner. His life was filled with music; she couldn’t carry a tune. She’d enjoyed a happy childhood; his was a well-publicized nightmare.

-Their worlds are about to collide-

Despite their obvious differences, Jake and Casey found each other, and her light balanced out his darkness. Would their love be strong enough to survive the weight of his tragic past?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

This book. This book! I expected a never-would-ever-actually-happen story between a Plain Jane and a famous rocker. But this story was so much more. Despite being the biggest rock star on the planet, Jake is so terribly broken as a result of a traumatic childhood experience, and has completely closed himself off from most of the world. He meets Casey at his brother’s wedding and they are paired together as members of the bridal party, and when she refuses to let him brush her off, sparks fly. The banter between Jake and Casey literally had me laughing out loud, and my gut clenched as this couple tried to overcome the obstacles placed in their path due to Jake’s inner demons.

There are some graphic scenes about kidnapping and abuse, so proceed with caution if those are triggers for you. But ultimately, this was a beautiful love story between an ordinary girl who becomes “everything” to a troubled young man who never imagined that he was worthy of anything. Read this book!

You thought their story was over… but a love like theirs has no end.

Fate doesn’t own Jake McKallister. At least that’s what he tells himself. Life is better than ever. He’s at the top of his game, performing to sold-out crowds the world over.

He has his health and a solid, fun-loving family to keep him grounded.

And he got the girl – the beautiful, quirky girl he’s just made his wife.

Yes, life is good. If only fate would stop screaming in his ear.

Lucky is the word to best describe Casey McKallister. Life is not just great… it’s amazing.

She has an awesome, devoted support system, a nerd’s dream job at a prestigious accounting firm, and, best of all, she’s married to the hottest rock star to ever roam the earth.

Yes, life is perfect… until it comes crashing down around her.

They say love concurs all. That’s what Jake and Casey are counting on.
