Synopsis
Music
critic Claire Abby is a single mom dreading her daughter’s departure for
college and worried that turning forty will leave her career running on fumes.
She’s floored when she lands a Rolling Stone cover story on 80s British rock
legend Christopher Penman. She spent her teenage years fantasizing he was her
boyfriend.
In
person, Christopher is everything Claire feared he’d be—charming, witty, and
unwilling to address the rumors he’s dodged for a decade. Still, she contains
her adolescent fantasies and manages to earn his trust, unearthing the truth
and the devastating secret behind it. His blockbuster story is her first
priority when she returns home, a nearly impossible task when Christopher
starts calling and flirting. She knows she should maintain a professional
distance. She knows she should focus on the story. She knows it would be best
to simply walk away. But how can she say “no” to the man she could never
forget?

Review:
I loved this follow up novel into Chris and Claire's lives. It is very rare we get a glimpse into the future of a couple we fell in love with from a previous book. I was a little surprised at the lack of drama. Don't get me wrong, I am glad it lacked a ton of drama. It was refreshing and made the story seem that much more real.
A wonderful read. The most drama we get is all these big life events for this couple all thrown together at once. It makes it a little hectic for the couple but again that much more real. I really loved this read. Often we just get an epilogue into the future not a whole book. It was really great and of course we get to keep living the lives of the characters we loved so much.
