We get not one, but two love stories in this book as we watch Stella experience life, love, relationships, and above all, the music that is a part of her soul. We follow Stella over the years as she follows her dream, finds her place, and meets two amazing men who both have a huge impact on her life. Over the course of Stella’s road trip, she thinks back on her life, and we see her story from when she moved to Texas as a passionate young music lover who is just starting out in her career, desperate to experience all the music that Austin has to offer, and become a music journalist. It rocks her – big time – and she decides that rather than take her booked flight back home, she’ll drive, giving her some time to think. Stella has just nailed the biggest win of her career, and she’s riding the well-deserved high when she receives a phone call with surprising news. “Love and rock ‘n’ roll love stories aren’t for the faint of heart.” But with the announcement of a follow-up, second-general novel, REPEAT, I knew it was time, and I just happened to be in the mood for a book like this, and God, I was so ready for it! I’m admitting upfront that I was slightly terrified diving into this book because I knew it was an angsty love triangle story, and I usually avoid those.

It’s such an incredible read, and I absolutely loved it! Her writing is flawless, her characters are unforgettable, and her story is captivating and masterfully told. I finished this book yesterday and I am still a jumble of emotions and I can’t stop thinking about it! Kate Stewart completely owned me with this book.
