Electric Oh! is getting back together to perform. Will their reunion be filled with drama, or provide new headlines for the tabloids?

After all these years can they still create that “magic” on stage and connect with fans?

Micah and John were once the best of friends and crafted unforgettable music with powerful when lyrics filled with passion, chemistry and raw feelings.

When the foundation in a relationship fractures it takes time repair and a lot of work to rebuild the splintered layers. If Micah and John can learn to trust again, be honest with themselves and each other about what really happened…they’ll discover an unexpected gift. A love far greater than either imagined. That is if they can survive a few days at sea.

There is plenty of rock-n-roll behind the scenes drama witty banter. Lots of flirty chemistry and great world building with characters that stay with you after you finish the book because their friendships are tested through unexpected challenges and obstacles making this a great read for your summer book adventures!

A scorchin hot read with multiple intimacy scenes, some may be “extra spicy” and/or graphic. Thank you Berkley Romance and Berkley Publishing for the advance reader copy for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
