Will they stay in different keys or find a way to play in tune? The first time I saw her I knew I wanted her. And when she talked music with me? I didn’t stand a chance. When she found out my secret past—that I used to be a famous pop star—I expected her to fangirl all over me. Because even though it’s been years since people cared about us, a ton of girls who grew up with our music still go nuts when they find out who I am. Not Gabby. She was more interested in our future than my past. I tried to stay away at first. She’s so young, eighteen to my twenty-two. Just starting out in college while I’m getting ready to leave. But I couldn’t leave her alone. Her passion, her drive, her intoxicating combination of innocence and audacity. And that sexy little Texas twang. Damn. I was sunk from the start. With her help, I started writing better songs than ever. And when a video of me playing a new song landed on YouTube and went viral, my life exploded in a return to fame I never thought I wanted. How can I pass up this chance now that it’s being offered to me again? But if I take it, will Gabby and I be able to survive? If you like rock star romances and sexy musicians, or you’ve ever been curious about what happens to a one hit wonder after the fame fades, don’t miss the first installment in this fresh take on a familiar trope. Full of sizzling chemistry and heartfelt emotion, grab this new adult pop star romance now! less

Unless you’re dating the next big pop star, and your meddling parents are holding you hostage more than a thousand miles away. Okay, so maybe that’s a tad dramatic, but after spending all the time I want with Jonathan during the school year—playing music and helping him fill out the rest of his album—being separated is harder than I expected. We manage to convince my parents to let me visit him in California for two weeks. But they have stipulations. My older sister has to come with me as a chaperone, and if we’re staying in Jonathan’s apartment, then he has to stay at his parents’ house. Two weeks isn’t nearly long enough when I’d been pushing for the whole summer, but I’ll take what I can get. Jonathan’s dad is friendly and welcoming, his brothers are warming up to me, but his mom … Well, let’s just say that I thought Dallas was the home of sugar-coated venom. I guess we don’t have a monopoly on that after all. Despite parental interference on both sides, our time together is almost everything I hoped it would be. Unexpected opportunities come my way that make it impossible for my parents to drag me back home, extending my stay and forging valuable contacts in the music industry. But all the good doesn’t cover over the fact that Jonathan’s mom and manager both think I’m a distraction. Their thinly veiled barbs make the city of angels feel more like the city of vipers. Once our summer together ends, I’ll head back to Marycliff University while Jonathan goes on a North American tour to promote his new album. How am I going to handle it when we spend more time apart than we do together? Picking up Jonathan and Gabby’s story, Development is the second installment in the Songs and Sonatas series. If you love coming of age stories about finding yourself and standing for what you want in the face of opposition, don’t miss this hot new take on the rockstar romance genre! less

Elation. Triumph. Launching my North American tour is everything I ever dreamed it would be.  Except ... I only see Gabby in weekends shoehorned around shows.  Stolen moments where she can come to me or I can take a break to visit her.  Holed up together in a hotel.  It's better than nothing, but it's a far cry from my ideal.  Without her none of this would be happening.  It seems wrong that she's not with me.    Gabby: Returning to school without Jonathan is everything I feared it would be.  Depressing.  Stressful. Lonely.  Even surrounded by friends, there's no one who understands the difficulties of juggling all the demands on my time. I want to quit and join Jonathan, but how can I give up on my own dreams?  I know I wouldn't be happy just as a rockstar's girlfriend.  But my punishing schedule, jet lag, and distance all strain our relationship and communication. And I'm afraid that if we continue like this, something will eventually break.  Part rockstar romance, part coming of age story, Recapitulation brings us full circle, back to Marycliff University, but with a twist.  It's a story of staying true to yourself and following your dreams in the face of pressure on all sides.  The stunning conclusion to Jonathan and Gabby's tale gives you everything you want in a romance novel--sizzling heat, heartfelt emotion, and most importantly, the happily ever after.  One click now! less
