Synopsis
This is a story
about a girl discovering and experiencing life for the first time.
Bryn Schaefler
grew up rich. Her parents expected the best out of her, picked her boyfriend
for her, and groomed her to be the next trophy wife fresh out of High School.
But when they
discover she wants to pursue music instead of following in her mothers
footsteps, they wanted to hear nothing about it.
That was when
Bryn left for good.
By chance, she
auditioned for main stream rock band Everlasting. Never in a million years did
she think she would make it.
Cale Pelton knew
it was his fault for the band scrambling around to find a new guitarist. Once
he saw Bryn audition, he knew he had to have her. Not just in the band, but in
his mind, body and soul.

My Review
I received a ARC copy for a book tour in exchange for an honest review
Holy Cow..... is what come to my mind if I had to make a statement about Straight from the Heart
This book I a sweet love story with twist and turns everywhere you go, you can't predict what will happen next.
Bryn Schaefler aka B is trapped, her live ahead of her will consist of being the trophy wife, the perfect hostess this is not what see in her future she has a passion for music and is a pretty good guitar player. B decides to follow her dream, stands up to her parents and walk out of a future that will be extremely predictable.
"I had a feeling I was going to be in for a life changing experience whether I liked it or not"
B auditions for Everlasting and get the part (sorry for the spoiler) The love interest I Cale Pelton the lead singer with mixed emotions, a battle within himself. Damon aka hunnam look alike is the one twist to the story. There is a lot of characters in this book but luckily it is easy to keep track of who is who.
" if I told you straight from the heart
how much I loved you
needed you, wanted you
would you break me?"
We follow B on her journey growing into a young adult, a brilliant guitars and finding love in the right place.
This is a sweet story and I could relate to B in more ways than one, Finding your own way and your own voice. This book keeps you on your toes, always wanting to know what will happen next.
"I want to run my hands through you hair, tell you how beautiful you are, kiss you like no one has kissed you before. I want to be that guy that will catch you whenever you fall, the guy you can lean on when you have a bad day, that sort of thing."
When I came at the end of the book I screamed nooooo.... you cruel woman. I checked double checked the book just end wap bam on a
"Everything went black"
I defiantly cant wait till book 2 to see what happens. I think it will be even more suspense.
This is a great book and would recommend it to anyone
I give it 4 stars
Teaser
After making small talk for the next couple
of minutes, Tracy brought out heaping plates of lasagna and a foot long piece
of garlic bread smothered in butter. I was about to gain 5 pounds from this
meal, and today I didn’t care.
“Do you guys eat like this on tour?” I
asked him, watching him wipe his hands on a napkin.
“Hell no. It’s usually fast food or a local
diner by the venue. I mean sometimes we’ll stock up on easy sandwich stuff. But
you can never tell because we thrash around the stage for an hour during our
set, so it comes off pretty quick.” Cale explained. “Are you afraid you’re
going to gain weight or something?”
“Obviously, I’m a girl; can you handle
living with one for months on end in a bus?” I asked him. He got a look in his
eye as if it was a challenge. I could get used to seeing that look every day.
“I lived with my mom for 22 years of my
life, and 3 sisters. I’ve seen it all. Question is, can you handle all
of us?” He questioned me, and I already knew the answer. But whether he
meant that as living with them in closed quarters, or something entirely
different, I didn’t care.
“So you wanting me in your band isn’t just
for the sex?” I enquired, catching myself off guard because normally the word
“sex” would never come out of my mouth, let alone anything remotely close to
that. Cale shifted in his seat and lowered his head for a minute, then met my
gaze.
“You’re 18 and talking about sex already?
Don’t get me wrong, that is completely hot but believe me B, tours aren’t for
the faint of heart. You’ll see the stereotypical sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll.
Shit will go down unexpectedly and it will change you, for good or ill.” Then
he took one last bite of his lasagna. “And, I’m a guy.”
I threw my head back and laughed
sarcastically. “Obviously.”
Cale brought his face closer to me and
whispered “Keep up your humor and everyone’s going to find out how I screwed my
new lead guitarist so fast and so hard she couldn’t walk straight.” My mouth
formed an O shape, and I sat back as straight as a stick. “I have needs, you’ll
find out. If I want to fuck, I’ll gladly take a groupie backstage, with
pleasure. This is eye opening shit B. You’ll shed that 18 year old shy
vulnerable skin the first night on tour.”
