Summary: Rebecca Chapman, a singer passionate about her craft, has never felt appreciated by her uber-professional family. When she’s selected to try out for a new reality singing show, it’s her chance to prove she can make it in the music world. All she has to do is get chosen by the network. Problem is, she needs to play an instrument for the audition in two months. And she can’t play a thing.

Amazingly, the solution seems to lie with Ian Ledger, the ultra-annoying co-worker she’s been at odds with since day one. Turns out Ian’s a skilled guitar player. He’s willing to teach her, but there’s a catch. He wants to win back his girlfriend at his sister’s wedding. And he wants Rebecca to help him.

Seems like a perfect solution. She gets the music lessons needed to secure her spot on the show; he wins back the girl destined to be his bride. Easy peasy. Except, during the series of ridiculous “fun” lessons and hours of arduous music practice, Rebecca’s feelings for Ian shift.

As the wedding nears, Rebecca doesn’t want Ian to succeed in his quest for love. But a deal is a deal. They both have dreams to chase. And a dream come true is everything.

Isn’t it?

This book worried me, within the first chapter because I didn’t think I would be able to get into these characters.

Consider past Ashley very wrong, because these two? They’re so freaking fun. This book is like a warm hug, a laugh at a good joke and a fond memory all at once.

It left me feeling good, and re-reading certain passages so I could remember them forever. The setting is familiar, even though I’ve never been there, but I could picture it all in my head.

Ian is lovely, protective, and yes, fun, not boring, I don’t care what that other lady says. He is progressive, and understanding and gods I just loved him.

Rebecca is someone who was easy to cheer for, and someone I’d like to hang out with. I don’t understand how her family couldn’t understand her? She’s amazing.

If you want a feel-good, quick read that will make you laugh out loud this is it.
