Publisher's Summary

Don't fall in love with your bandmate's girl.

It's an unspoken rule, and one I'm determined to follow. I've always been the guy to take the high road, to be the voice of reason, but when it comes to Jess, I'm tired of fighting this overwhelming attraction.

The more time we spend together, the more compelled I am to show her she's worthy of love and dreams of her own. The lines of my moral compass begin to blur. I should leave her alone, but I can't. I know it's wrong, but everything about us feels so right.

Despite everything I try, it doesn't change the truth. She's not mine.

I can't sit back and watch her love someone else. But if given the choice, will she even want me?

A hard concern to address

this is a pretty concerning topic and a difficult one to write successfully.
Ms Shea kept this pretty broad and temperate and steered clear of getting too deep and, for a listener, uncomfortable.
I have read grittier on this topic so I admired her management of the plot and how it worked for Jess.
I didn't enjoy how she made Trent look! I so liked his character In book 1 and then in book 2 he's written in as an unfeeling ass.
perhaps a bit more self reflection of trent would have had me enjoying the story more, but if you have a good hero in book 1 and Introduce him in book 2....well please keep him as a good guy. even though there was an unsolved reflection Trent needed to address...and did not do a good job of solving it here.
Sean's character rolled through nicely in the 2 books and his grounded attitude helped this plot along nicely.
Jason was awesome bringing Sean to life and Emma was perfect for Jess, her voice suited really well.
Jess did make some silly decisions that was outright in sealing her interaction with the boyfriend.
all in all, a lighter look on a difficult topic, an enjoyable read
