I loved this book, it grabbed both my attention and my heart right from the start and held it straight to the end. Leaona Lux is a gifted author, I enjoy her writing style and the storylines she creates, they are realistic and easy to relate to. The two lead characters, Charlee Rae and Alden, went to the same High School, Charlee had a crush on Alden, listened to him play music though he never knew she was there. The only contact she had with him was when they collided and Charlee fell. Alden did want to reach out to her but never saw her again. Fast forward thirteen years, Alden is doing what he love, he is in a band performing live shows, he is getting noticed and is invited to play in music festival. Charlee is out with friends who are seeing a friend play when she see’s Alden, who happens to be the friend they are talking about. He does not recognize her so she introduces herself as Rae. The two hit it off, she does something she normally does not do she has a one night stand with him. Alden the player only does one night stands so they agree to just be friends after that. When Alden suffers a devastating loss and everything in his life changes, his friends try to help him but it is Charlee who comes to his rescue. I loved how everything plays out in this book, there is never a dull moment with plenty of drama, angst, heartbreaking moments, heartfelt ones and a slow burn romance. Leaona Luxx thank you for another awesome story and emotional rollercoaster ride, I love how much heart you put into your books.
