ginaardito's review against another edition
5.0
Shasta Kovich is the lead singer of the grunge band Velvet Bitches and they've just hit success when her vocal cords crap out on her. After surgery, her agent sends her to Blake Adams for voice training. From their first meeting, sparks fly. He's the son of very successful musicians; she's the daughter of an alcoholic lounge singer. Each sees the faults in the other: he's a snob and a hard taskmaster who thinks he knows it all, she's talented but untrained and rough around the edges. Still, there's an attraction between them that buzzes to life.
After several sessions together, they discover they have more in common than they originally realized and that appreciation leads to strong feelings. They'll both have to confront their pasts in order to find their future.
I'll admit I'm not wild about the cover, which reads more YA to me and a little cartoony. But the story inside is well written, with two compelling characters you'll root for and fall in love with. This was a delightful romance that I thoroughly enjoyed.
