It was always the two of them. Rowan and Luke. Luke and Rowan. Until it
wasn’t.
He walked out to follow his dreams. She eventually moved on without him
and learned to believe again in the possibility of happily ever after. Until
Luke walked back in—in a big, viral social media, way.
Luke learned dreams were hollow without someone to share them with. Now
he’ll do anything to make Rowan believe she is the most important thing in the
world to him—more important than the fame and the fans.
Jilted and gun-shy, Rowan isn’t sure she has it in her to trust again.
The bright lights of Music City create deep shadows where secrets and lies
thrive and believing in someone might be the hardest thing she’s ever had to
do.
My Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is my favorite kind of romance. There’s just something so satisfying about two people who belong together getting a second chance. The conflict arises from external circumstances, creating authentic angst without being overbearing. And the main characters are so realistic and loveable.
I was quickly drawn into their story and cheering for them every step of the way. Luke and Rowan were high school sweethearts who thought they would be together forever. Then fame and fortune stepped in and they went their separate ways. Now Luke is back, in an epic way at the most inopportune time, and he wants Rowan back. He knows he made a mistake all those years ago, and he's not letting her get away again.
This book had some great elements for Luke and Rowan to navigate as they found their way back to each other. The typical trappings of fame, with crazed fans, paparazzi and famous people, and a manager with nefarious intent, all make for challenges that keep the story interesting and moving along. I loved both Luke and Rowan, and their story is the perfect lighthearted, sexy, touching, feel-good read.

Excerpt
The minister glanced between them. In a low voice he asked,
“Are you ready?”
“Yes,” they both said.
He raised his voice so the congregation could her him.
“Michael and Rowan, marriage is a promise between two people to love, trust,
and honor each other. It takes trust to know in your hearts you only want the
best for each other. It takes—”
A commotion at the back of the chapel stopped the minister
from telling them what else it took.
“Sir, you can’t go in. There’s a wedding in progress!”
She recognized their wedding planner Stephanie’s voice.
“I know. I’m here to stop it.”
Rowan’s heart thumped in her chest and her fingers tingled
from the flow of adrenaline suddenly coursing through her. She squeezed her
eyes closed. “Please God, no,” she whispered.
