Joni Lark’s latest song is taking off, but inside, she is spiraling from her mother’s recent health news and her fears about her current case of writer’s block. Before heading home for the summer, she has a frustrating encounter with an arrogant former boy-band pop star that involves an electrifying kiss. Returning home is not the solace she was hoping for, as her parents make the shocking decision to close the Revelry, their family’s music venue. Then, suddenly, Joni begins to hear an attractive and comforting voice in her head, which brings its own stunning revelation when the man with that voice shows up at the Revelry. While trying to figure out how to get each other out of their heads, they decide to finish the song that has been haunting them both, leading to a growing connection. Poston (A Novel Love Story) explores grief and regret while inspiring hope in love with poetic banter and the comfort of a close-knit, eccentric, and humorous family.
VERDICT Poston writes another lyrical and magical tale set in a cozy beach town that will make readers want to savor reading it while sitting on the sand themselves. Hand to those who also enjoy B.K. Borison and Tarah DeWitt.
