Simple and enjoyable love story about an 18yr old girl finding her way through life by following her dream and finding love unexpectedly.

Brynn was young and innocent who grew up rich and sheltered. With the help of her ex-boyfriend Ethan she found her love for music, but with controlling parents, she couldn’t go any further on following her dream. Until one day she found her strength to finally leave her parents. She knew she couldn’t take the life they were dishing out, if it meant not living life the way she wanted. So she left to follow her dream.

After auditioning to be part of rock band, she was chosen and became part of a new family. It didn’t take long for her to get along with the guys, they became her family. The guys loved her and she loved them like her brothers, except for Cale. Both she and Cale felt something else for each other, they knew they had a connection. Thinking of the band, they knew they couldn’t be together, they tried to stay clear of their feelings for each other. They tried seeing others, but neither one could stop how they felt. It didn’t take long for them to finally give in to their feelings. They kept it a secret at first, because they didn’t want the band to get upset..that didn’t last long.

Picture
What they found out was, when they are together they were better versions of themselves. They can share things with each other that they wouldn’t with anyone else. The more they spent time together and got to know each other, the more they realized how much they belonged together. So they explored what they had and they were great together. They live the life of music and love and nothing can be better than that.. Until their world crashing down when someone started hurting their bandmates one by one.

Keep in mind that this book ends with a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to read what’s next book. I enjoyed reading about an innocent 18yr coming out of her shell and finding the guy she was meant to be with. There were times when Brynn needed a smack for thinking about other guys, when her boyfriend Cale is just around the corner…but most of the time she was a pretty cool chick finding her way of life. Trying to live life the best she could.

This story is about Luke and Olivia, who had been together for four years happily. BUT Olivia feels as if she is stuck in a bubble. Small town everyone knows everyone's business. She wanted a city life, with Luke. She's just really tired of living in a small town. But Luke has a different opinion. And this is where things get complicated for the both of them.

It doesn't matter how many years it has been since, if you really, truly love someone it shouldn't matter because you know it will always be in your heart when you know who it belongs to. Fight it all you want, you're going to end up giving up somehow. Or giving in to this desire you can't seem to deny any longer.

Olivia thinks she made the biggest mistake of her life by only thinking about herself and her dreams, but it wasn't supposed to be without Luke. All she wanted was to pursue her dream with him by her side. There wasn't any day that she did not think of him. Everything and everyday she did with her day to day thing with him in her heart and mind the entire time she was away from Georgia.

Luke was hurt beyond repair from what Olivia did to their relationship. He thinks that what she did was selfish and did not even care after all the years they shared together. He pursued his own dreams and Olivia became his muse. It all started one night at his drunken state, he just started scribbling about how he felt for Olivia and the rest was history with his music. He became successful, but did not forget his own family back home. Being a Mama's boy had can't keep him away from home. When he received a news regarding his mother, he had to come back and take care of things at home. This is where Olivia and Luke cross paths again.

Somehow Luke knew Olivia would be back, he said it to her when she left him years ago. When you know it's mean to be, sometimes you'll have to let it go and if it comes back to you, you better hold on tight and never let go. Not everyone get's a second chance at love but when you do get that chance, you better make sure it's forever.

Ms. Franco, I absolutely loved Lukey and Care Bear's story. It was such an amazing, sweet love story that I enjoyed so much. You pulled me right from the beginning and could not put it down. I just kept reading and reading until I got to the bottom of the one love story that will stick with me. I highly recommend this book!! I can't wait to read more of your work.

The story of Luke and Olivia, loving through music.

This book brings you through the past and present lives of Olivia and Luke. First it brings you to the heartbreaking past of their break up and how painful their separation was 9yrs before their separated present lives. Then Author Lucia brings you back and forth from present to past and back again. I love how the Author wrote the story, it made me understand how Olivia and Luke became who they were as adults.

The story really takes the reader to knowing how much love and heartbreak both characters went through in their lives. There was so much emotion when it came to Luke and Olivia. That no matter how far part or how much time had past, Olivia and Luke always belonged together. Of course I cannot forget about the music, this story is also about the connection they have for music. No one can understand each other more than they understood music together. Luke became who he was for Olivia, every lyric that came out of his mind was because of her. When they were apart, he had an empty part of him that always wanted her and looked for her.

As for Olivia, even though she was the one that left to chase her dreams, she was as heartbroken as Luke was. Even when she got with Nate, she never really fully gave her whole heart to him. She was always thinking of Nate and her what if.

After seeing each other again, even after 9yrs sparks flew. They knew, they just tried to deny it. While reading this book, at times I got antsy. I just wanted them back so badly, but I stayed patient and it was all worth it. This story is not only beautiful, but so sweet. I <3 Luke and for Luke his music always speaks louder than words.

♪ ♫ ♩ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯ ♪ ♫ ♩ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯
Luke: Listen to the music, it tells a story…
Luke: time fades…but the music never stops.
♪ ♫ ♩ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯ ♪ ♫ ♩ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯

Of course let’s not forget about poor Nate, he was sweet and kind. I hope he also gets his happy ending, he deserves it. Author Lucia Franco, please write a book about that wonderful man. =)
