Thoughts:
This was a fun second chance romance book. I have been reading a lot of second chance romances lately, which is new for me. I am finding that seeing how people have grown and evolved since breaking up in the past and how they come together again is a lot of fun. In this case the author did a good job of explaining how both the characters had evolved since their split. It was well done. I listened to this one on audio and think the narrators did a great job. They really brought the characters to life and made them feel real. The characters in this book are young and some of their decisions reflect their inexperience. It was reflective to read about and frustrating at times, but not in a bad way. It was amusing. The premise of the characters being in a band was a lot of fun and reading how they survived the entertainment industry was entertaining. There was so much pressure on them to survive and so many people wanted them to fail, but they did fantastic and persevered.
