"The magic can guide you, but the soul will decide what it wants in the end."

And goodness, does the soul decide what it wants in the end.

Brooklyn and Jarrod's story was beautiful. From the moment, Bee, aka Brooklyn, woke up and, not having her first cup of coffee to her choice of music for ringtones and performances was magic. I felt so connected to this character. Then, in walks, talk dark and handsome Jarrod, the motorcycle God, and he is just a delish man.

And you know a book is good when you get all the emotions. And boy, did I get a few watery eyes.

A vibrant, emotionally charged romance that pulses with music and heart. Brooklyn’s journey of healing, self discovery, and reclaiming her voice is compelling, and the love story is both tender and intense. With strong characters, a glamorous setting, and themes of trust and second chances, this is a captivating read from start to finish.

What a great story

I absolutely loved Brooklyn and Jarrod's story from the gorgeous cover to the very last word. I devoured it, along with my favourite triple choc ice cream 😊. The story building was so smooth and very well written and I fell in love with all of them.

I loved this descriptive and beautifully written story. I am a visual reader, and I could clearly see all of the characters in Brooklyn's friendship group .
I enjoyed the journey of Brooklyn and Jarrod's love story. I'm eager to see where their relationship goes in the next book.

A fun romance with an FMC who can take care of herself, and a MMC we all want in real life!
Well done on the debut 💕

The Wave reminds me of a soap opera. Finds guy, loses guy, finds guy. I did not care for this book. It’s about a singer who meets a man at the lounge she performs at. Their relationship is good, then not so good. Do not waste your time on this book. Very disappointed.
