A romance book, set around a woman with a lot of talent called Toni who does not seek fame and a boy from her past called Sebastian who manages a band who are about to hit the big time but their lead guitarist Candi is a uncommitted party girl and addict.
I really enjoyed this I felt the pacing was good and it was an enjoyable read.
Also very much a slow burn on the romance side of things, also quite smutty once we finally get there, but it does take a while for our characters to get their shit together.
It was easy to follow and the world building was excellent, I believe there will be other books to follow in the series and I am keen to read them, which, is quite unusual for me as I much prefer standalone novels.

I really loved how this novel developed. The main characters were well written and their stories well fleshed out. I love music so getting a behind the scenes look was amazing. Toni is a badass heroine and has so much raw talent. It is so motivating to see black women dominate in the rock world. All the women of the Lillys are complex and talented and I’m so excited for the rest of this series.
I would say the main romance of the story would be Toni falling in love with the band and secondary would be the love between Toni and Seb. The Toni and Seb romance was a slow burn and I wish we got more of it. I will defiantly be buying each book in this series as they come out. I highly recommend this book and wouldn’t be surprised if this got adapted to the screen in some way one day.
