Twenty-five-year-old Paige Lancaster is one contract away from earning a living doing her favorite thing in the world: writing songs. But when a music industry professional suggests she might be holding back with her lyrics to lessen the heartbreak of an old flame, Paige doubts if her music is ready to be heard. In a rare, impulsive move, Paige contacts Liam Bishop after four years of no contact to ask him for a small favor: date her, and then re-break her heart, all so she can remember what those big, song worthy emotions felt like. And since Liam is the one who first set Paige on this career path, he hesitantly agrees. Across three months of Liam’s summer work travel, the exes are forced to share hotel beds, rehash the past, and date in the present, all while navigating the building attraction between them they both swore was the one line of their agreement they wouldn’t cross. But when it becomes near impossible not to act on their rippling chemistry, and as ever intensifying feelings blur the lines of what’s actually real and what’s driven by the music, Paige and Liam will both have to decide what’s more important: art for the sake of it, or love over everything.
Words cannot begin to explain how much I actually adored this book. Like I’m still processing how much it meant to me. This book hit so hard and it feels so comforting. It had all the feels and so raw and emotional. No idea how to compare this book because it was just perfection. Both characters were so loveable and understandable. I felt pain for both of them, the miscommunication and the what ifs. Ugh, I will forever love Liam and Paige!
This was so cute and fun and cheesy while also being so emotional and deep and well-written. It was such a perfect balance and clearly made it a five star read for me. I will absolutely be reading more by this author because this one just scratched an itch so perfectly for me.
