Β <— An angsty, old-school indie feel, “unrequited love” (just enough to hurt!!) romance from our very own R!!! WE LOVE R, and we (I!!) LOVED book #1 (in fact,Β here’s my review).Β π
And book #2 JUST WENT LIVE!!! Ahhhhhh sweet relief!!!! The duet is complete!!
Maryse: I just finished Rβs book!!!!!! Wow. I loved it. I cried twice. <3Β Great writing, and fantastic little details during conversations that made the conversations flow naturally. The characters came to life and moved as if I were watching a movie.Β And yes, I was so excited about the proposition and then I was all… WHAT? OH RIGHT!! GAH!!!!!! LOL!Β But I love that kind of “cliffhanger” because it’s not so much a cliffhanger since the end of this one essentially came to a solid conclusion… it’s just the start to part 2. πΒ I’m in!
Leslie M: Maryse, that is it! The βflowβ of Waiting for the Sun was perfect. I couldnβt think of the word. I am DYING for part 2 as I have no idea where story going.
Nay: I couldnβt agree more, Maryse!
Tasha J: Ahhh, Waiting for the Sun is getting super intense in the feels and Iβm scared!! I feel like covering my eyes, taking a peek *deep breath* and then covering my eyes again. Lol
Leslie M: Waiting for the Sunβ¦*sighs again but also shoots laser beams at Rβs butt to hurry up with sequel* π
Cheryl: ROBIN, DID I SEE THIS CORRECTLYβ¦RIDERS ON THE STORM RELEASED YESTERDAY?!!!!!!! IβM SOOO EXCITED TO READ IT. *JUMPS UP AND DOWN*Β Think I will re-read Waiting For the Sun first. What great timing now that Iβm done with the birthday and prom drama. Off to readβ¦
About book #1:
Francesca Valentine would rather swear off chocolate than go on vacation solo, but she made a promise to her late father to come out of her shell and live a little. When her best friend bails on their annual girlsβ trip, she vows to do just that, but her plan is foiled when the hotel loses her reservation. Alone and stranded in Austin, Texas during one of the worldβs largest music festivals, she’s rescued by a mysterious stranger, and an unexpected friendship blossoms.
Ten years after losing his family in a tragic accident, Darian Fox is finally back on his feet. The onetime rock star turned successful indie label-owner is content with the isolated life heβs created for himself and wants to keep it that way. But when heβs forced to travel to Texas on behalf of his company, he finds itβs hard to be alone in a city overrun with people. He meets the beautiful, magnetic Francesca and discovers alone is the last thing he wants to be.
The unlikely pair form a bond that elevates them from merely existing to living a life less ordinary. But the lines of friendship quickly blur, and when Francescaβs true feelings surface, Darian will have to decide between breaking her heart and breaking the promise he made to the family he lost. With his own heart ruled by guilt, does Francesca even stand a chance?
