in high school but then she broke off their relationship without ever telling
him why. He later followed his dream and became a rock star while she gave up
her dream of a writing career and now works as a waitress to raise their son. When
they reconnect years later, sparks fly and old hurts surface.

The best part about the book, for me, is Bobby—Janie and
Buzzy2527s eight year old son. He2527s sweet and genuine.

I liked Buzzy for the most part but I couldn2527t connect
with Janie. I understand why she broke Buzzy2527s heart and never told him about
their son, but it irks me when a woman puts aside her wants and needs for a
man2527s wants and needs. Her reasoning was flawed and she was just too prideful.

I understood and felt Buzzy2527s anger and pain much better
than Janie2527s. I lost respect for Buzzy, however, when he cast aside his live-in
fling that had traveled with him on the road for about two months. He kicked
the woman off the tour bus because Janie had come back into his life and he
didn2527t even give her money to go back home. Did he expect her to hitchhike? Did
he care if she wandered homeless through the streets of Cleveland? Low blow,
Buzzy. I laughed when she ranted at him in front of everyone but I didn2527t think
Buzzy was punished enough for the callous way he2527d treated her, especially since
Janie wasn2527t mad at him. Anyway, that subplot just rubbed me the wrong way.

The story was good, well thought out, but I2527d guessed a
lot of the plot points early on. I enjoyed it mainly because of the child,
Bobby, and the side characters. The band mates are awesome as usual and I love
seeing how the other relationships progress.

There was a lot of head hopping, passive voice and a few
typos that took me out of the story. The formatting of the book was superb,
like the others, but I wished it would2527ve been edited better.

I liked the book all in all and will read the last book
