Review:
I absolutely adore books that include music or musicians so
this book was right up my alley. I love
that it is the beginning of a series and I get to experience it from the very
start. Samantha Chase did a great job
bringing you into this world of musicians and characters where everything isn’t
so perfect but it’s how you get over your hurdles that define the person you
will become.
We have a prelude to a couple years before the book starts
and it’s a great way to introduce the main love interest, they’ve met before
but not both of them will remember. It was great and really its many girl’s
fantasies, first this is your brother’s best friend, second he’s now a rock
star, and I mean really who wouldn’t want that?
The two couldn’t be more different from one another but it’s the
complimenting of each other’s personality that makes them work the right way.
Matt Reed is on a hiatus after having had some bad backlash
of his performance on Broadway, hey that kind of stage is not for
everyone. So he’s hiding out at his best
friend’s house, where Aaron’s sister happens to live in the guest house next
door to the main house. First off the
scenery in this book the description of the house, the kitchen, the food and
the location is amazing, makes me really want to go there to relax. Regardless this was a recipe for something
very interesting and not a disaster at all.
There was an attraction there from the very beginning, and according to
preface even longer than that.
It was pure joy watching them get to know one another again
and enjoying each other’s company. It
was a joy watching them grow and learn from one another, whether it was about
food or family, relationships or responsibilities they conquered it because
they each made the other person better.
Vivienne was very OCD, there is no other way to explain it but she felt
some type of way about her parents, it’s tough I can completely relate to her
in the story about some people acting differently towards you than others
around you, it’s hard. But I like the
way she resolved her issues at the end of the book. Same with Matt, although his situation was a
little harder you can’t really define what’s more dire to one person, after all
you aren’t the one living in their shoes.
Overall this was a really great start to the series and I
can’t wait to see who comes up next!
Love the cover, it’s initially what got me interested in the book, again
a musician and he’s quite good looking, I’m all for it!
