BOOK 1 in an all new TRILOGY.

Rock star Logan King has come home to Winchester Falls for the annual Summer Festival. Only this time he's hauling a helluva lot more baggage than a few suitcases and vintage guitars. His closet contains more than the usual skeletons…and if he doesn't keep the door firmly locked, someone might get harmed. The specter of what haunts him forces him to turn away from anything more than one-night-stands.
Until Izzy and her topaz eyes finally give him a reason to try again.
Since moving to town Isabella Grace has found friends and a place to belong for the first time in her life. Running the Summer Festival is the perfect way to show how important her new community is. She just never planned on a whirlwind fling with a man too used to saying goodbye. Or to fall for a guy who has as many secrets as he does hit songs.
Logan is used to protecting himself, but protecting Izzy is all new territory. With everything that matters to him at risk, he refuses to let her get hurt—even if that means he has to walk away. For her own good.

HUBBY'S REVIEW:

This is a good story and is fast paced between the two main characters Logan a rock musician, star and Isabella Grace, who owns the book store in the town that he is doing a concert or many small ones for charity that he does every year in this town. This year she is one of the main people in charge of the shows, and she is also new to the town. They have an instant attraction for each other but he does not want to do anything about it and she agrees. Then the night before the first show they decide they can’t hold out and decide for the next five days let’s see if we can make this work. They both want to so much each not having success with past relationships, but she is still worried about him being a rock star. Everything is going good for a couple of days until the person that has been stalking him, Aimee Collen, shows up and Logan freezes and has a panic attack but still cannot do anything to protect Isabella, so she find s a friends place to hide until the reporters and Aimee leave. The story then goes along with them trying to pick up their lives and move on and then the book ends. Saying wait for more of the story in January of 2015, I have problems remembering things from last month. Maybe it is just me but I don’t get having to wait for the rest of the story. I enjoyed getting out of my reading history, spy, and sports books and now I have to remember the characters. I was drawn to this story because of the rock music part. Anyway, this is still a good don’t mind me the writing was excellent. I got this book from net galley.
