This was a good listen and great start to a new series from L. A. Cotton. After overcoming a very serious illness, Eva is encouraged by her best friend to compete in a talent competition, and to try and get back to “normal life.” During the competition, she sings and plays her guitar with passion and ease. Then, she and her best friend Molly meet Hudson and Rafe, two members of the band Black Hearts. The connection between Eva and Rafe is immediate, and it is clear that there is so much more to their budding relationship than just physical chemistry. But, it also seems like there is a bit of mystery in terms of the band and their lifestyle. Rafe and his troubled brother Levi have some secrets they seem to be hiding.
Sarah Puckett is a wonderful narrator, and as a special bonus, she sings in this audio. Yes, there is a guitar playing and she SINGS. It was so cool and a fun addition to the audiobook. Sarah can ring so many emotions out of you and take the material she is presented and just make it even better than it already was. I’m looking forward to seeing where L.A. Cotton will take us with this story.
