Great Summer Read. This was a fun book to read! I love books about musicians and music, so I was a happy camper! I laughed a lot with this book. Presley’s parents are an absolute riot and very open and honest about everything! To the point they embarrass Presley. Her parents are renowned musicians in their own right, but have retired to run the music store. They still have a lot of famous friends coming by the music store to jam on Thursday nights. The have Presley back in the music store working. Presley was a great character with sass, but when she was fired from her band, The Luminous 6, she came back home to regroup. She lost her will to sing and perform. Her hurt and anger were dragging her down. Then she meets the handsome guitar teacher (Paul) who works at the music store. Presley was attracted to him immediately. She had doubts about dating another guitar player, as her ex-boyfriend who she started the band with and then turned on her. They had been working with new band-mates and a heavy metal sound, which wasn’t Presley’s style. Presley had been offered a solo recording contract on numerous occasions, but she wanted to be a packaged deal with her band, but they were mediocre musicians at best. Her band felt they could do better without her. Paul was amazing! He was sweet and caring. He was beautiful to Presley with his amber eyes and incredible tattoos. He was a very talented guitar player and a great teacher. Paul suffered from debilitating stage fright that he had to drink and smoke a joint in order to function and even that wasn’t really helping. He also played in a band called Jukebox Bleu that played locally around town. He would become physically ill before performances. Paul’s sister tried to help him work through his issues, but he would become frustrated with her treating him like a child and a head case. Paul was very hard on himself because of his stage fright and didn’t want to seek therapy, he chose to self-medicate instead. Presley tried to help him also and found a new way to help him cope with his stage fright, have sex in the bathroom right before a performance. He would have his mind on other things so he didn’t think about performing and was a little more relaxed. Presley helped out with Jukebox Bleu when they were supposed to play for a summer event when the front man was called up for duty with the National Guard. Presley didn’t really want to do it, but she wanted to feel the joy through music again and hopefully bring Paul along with her. There are things that are said and done between Presley and Paul to change the dynamics of their relationship. They have support from their families and friends to get them through. They find a way through the difficulties they are faced with and come out better for it, even though they were brokenhearted. I loved, loved the music selections between each chapter to sum up what Presley was thinking and going through. Here's a sample of the music: A Playlist for Wallowing at Work 1. Welcome to the Working Week – Elvis Costello 2. Soul Suckin’ Jerk – Beck 3. This F***ing Job – Drive-By Truckers 4. I’ve Had it – Black Flag 5. Livin on a Prayer – Bon Jovi 6. Working Class Hero – John Lennon version preferred 7. Factory – Bruce Springsteen This book is a fun fast paced New Adult read and I highly recommend it. It’s a fun summer read!

A Fun Read. A fun read, especially if you like music. A romance between Paul and Presley, even though Presley was not sure if she wanted another musician in her life. I liked how Paul over came his fears. Presley's parents were a hoot!! Loved how Elie put in the song titles on how the characters were feeling. Brought back many memories from the songs that were listed.

Loved it!. I loved this fantastic, entertaining, fun and sexy, rock star romance story. The storyline was so different than most rock romances. With a beautiful lead singer who is given the shaft by her band and her boyfriend because she is better than them. And she is, too good for them. Broken because she just wanted to sing with a band. I could not read this story fast enough and I read it in one sitting. This story was well written and crafted, a great story with a really good build and pace. It had lovable characters with a ton of chemistry and heat. Coming from musical legend parents Presley grew up with music and it is so deep in her soul that she is just cant stay in LA after the breakup. But with the love of her parents and their quirky, talented, musical friends, as well as a hot new guitar teacher at her parents' legendary music store, Presley just might make it. Loved the musical talent and the fun and flavor they brought to Thursday nights. Also I immensely liked the playlists for different moods and problems that Presley was dealing with. Loved Paul and Presley together! Get this book you will love it too. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Received a complimentary copy through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

Loved It!. This is my second book by this author and I absolutely love her writing style! Presley is in a band with her boyfriend trying to break out into fame in LA when she dumped by both of them after yet another offer to go solo. Unable to see where she's going to go from here, Presley returns home to her parents' record store. On her first day back she meets Paul. Paul teachers guitar and plays in a band. After their lead singer gets called to active duty overseas, Presley joins the band as the interim lead singer. I loved Presley and Paul together. They are both funny, smart characters but there were definitely times that I wanted to yell at them for being so dumb both with themselves and each other. I loved the Twitter feed and text conversations between chapters. It definitely gave insight into both characters that weren't officially introduced in this story and some that played pivotal roles in the story. This was a light, quick, fantastic read! *I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.*
