Summary

Age is just a number, right? Not if he’s the CEO of my record label and technically my boss…

On stage, I come alive.

I know I’m an essential part of The Sinful Seven. I revel in the roar of the crowd.

As the music thumps, I find my place under the stage lights.

For a few short hours, I can just be me.

Not the murderer’s daughter.

Caleb wants to break down my defenses. He thinks he can save me from myself. Little does he know, others have tried. All have failed.

I have a secret I carry with me every moment of every day. One that caused me to build walls around my scarred heart, with strict rules set to protect myself.

No huge age gap.

No kids.

Never let him get too close.

Being with him would break every single rule. But, whether I’m ready to admit it or not, he just might be worth the risk. I pray I’m not making a mistake. If my heart breaks again, there will be no putting the pieces back together.

My Review

5/5 Stars

Willow is close to her bandmates, and with their help, and her general love of music, finds herself able to move past every tragedy that life throws her way. When she meets a record producer at a party named Caleb, she’s intrigued. He’s older than her, but she has faith in him. Faith she didn’t think she could put in anyone else again. The only problem is that they both have secrets they’re keeping from one another. Will Willow be able to take down the walls she’s carefully constructed to let him in?

Though this is the first book in this series that I’ve read, I really liked Willow’s character and the entire background. The setup of the band and the dynamics she has with each member was very believable. The slow burn romance between Willow and Caleb was tastefully done and really kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what would go down between the pair next. All in all, this book is an emotional rollercoaster that fans of the genre will adore.
