Rifts & Refrains by Devney Perry
4.0
This is a small town, second chance romance with a fun twist of rockstar/celebrity.
Quinn is the guarded and prickly drummer for popular rock band Hush Note.
She gets a call and heads home to Montana after years of leaving it and everyone behind.
She had big dreams and felt her family and hometown suffocating those.
Graham is the high school sweetheart/first love that stayed and built his life there. He’s very “every day man” and oh, so sexy.
He has a love for music, too. I love that connection between him, Quinn and his son! Pretty adorable and emotional moments come by way of that shared love.
It takes a bit to figure him out. Once I did, I really liked him!
The emotions felt real, no over the top drama. The romance is very slow burn.
The story isn’t just romance, it’s about family and all the messiness and emotions that come with that.
It’s about figuring out how YOUR life works best for you. It’s about forgiveness and acceptance.
At times I felt like it was a bit slow, but I also thought at times it actually enhanced some of the emotions and angst. That’s an individual preference thing.
There are some great secondary characters and storylines!
The hometown/family are incredible.
Her band mates are awesome! I love when they make appearances.
I think fans of romance on the sweeter side won’t be disappointed. (It’s not a gritty or dark rockstar romance)
