Sometimes the music of tomorrow can play louder than the echoes of yesterday...

Rock star Nathan Roth believes he's experienced everything life has to offer-until he witnesses a heated argument between a woman and her boyfriend on a snowy street in Greenwich Village. But it's not the fight that grabs his attention; it's Lydia, the fiery lady at the center of the chaos, and he's instantly smitten.

Lydia Ashburton, a student at NYU, has had enough of her controlling boyfriend and is drawn to the handsome stranger who intervenes. When Nathan asks her out, she has no idea he's a rock star. But as she starts to peel back the layers of his glitzy life, she realizes that dating someone in the spotlight is like riding a rollercoaster-thrilling, a little scary, and not for the faint of heart.

Ten years down the line, Nathan is rocking the single dad life in Shiloh, Georgia, like a pro. Enter Anna Kinser, the delightfully quirky event coordinator who just landed a gig at the theater where Nathan works. When their worlds collide, it's like fireworks on the Fourth of July. At just twenty-three, Anna is juggling her own circus of challenges, but scoring a job at the Art Deco theater feels like she's just unwrapped the biggest present of all. The moment she meets Emily, Nathan's spunky little daughter, it's like they're instant besties, sharing secrets and snacks. Nathan's charm and guitar skills have Anna swooning, but as they get closer, she starts to see the emotional wall he's built. Just when she thinks she's got the key to his heart, a mysterious letter pops up, threatening to throw a wrench into their budding romance. Now, Anna has to decide if she's ready to dive headfirst into this adventure or hit the brakes on Nathan's complicated past, risking the love that's just starting to blossom.

Perfect for readers who love:

• romantic, character-driven women's fiction
