One guy, one girl. One in the spotlight. One in the shadows.Falling in love with your best friend isn’t always a great idea, especially when he’s Noah Lockton - the sexiest, most famous new talent on the planet. When 21-year-old small-town photographer Chloe Campbell is offered the chance of a lifetime – to join her celebrity childhood friend Noah on tour as an exclusive blogger – she’s certain both have put what happened four years ago behind them. But his eyes still burn; his voice is still a jackhammer to her heartstrings; all his songs are about her. Is it possible that that night still haunts them both? The music industry is a machine, spinning hype and rumors as much as his records. It’s not just Noah’s girlfriends who’ve got it in for Chloe (there’s no stopping the Twitter-obsessed, cat-loving pop-star Courtney Lentini for starters). Pretty soon, the jealousy and media frenzy surrounding these so-called-friends takes a life-changing turn and it seems making love means making enemies at every turn. When tragedy threatens to pull the final curtain on their relationship, both Chloe and Noah must make a choice. As much as this world leaves them starstruck, is living their dream really worth living without each other? Views: 58

So Becky Wicks strikes again! Another book to add to your rainy day/summer beach reading list. "If it doesn't break our hearts it isn't love." - Goodreads "A great story,mixing the past with the present but never once confusing. Seeing what this book was about I didn't expect Conor's history to be what it was. Sweet light read that you will enjoy!" - Goodreads"Its a great read, full of people that feel genuine, and I absorbed that small town music atmosphere that Nashville ought to feel. It made for a well connected story, where what happened felt very realistic, and I could imagine it and feel myself there with the characters. " - Goodreads"Between Connor and Stephanie, the attraction is immediate ... But all is not so simple ... Exes, jealousy, religion, fame ... Life... Becky you did it again!! U rock!!" - Goodreads"This is such a great story about friendship, love, standing on your own, and believing in yourself." - GoodreadsTake a look inside by clicking the cover! Views: 50
