Not Another Love Song by Julie Soto

Loved this book. I would describe Not Another Love Song as a love song dedicated to Gwen & Xander falling in love.  Although this is a bit of a slow burn, once it heats up the spice it is on fire! 

If you are looking for a contemporary romance that will give you butterflies, this is full of intense chemistry, features rivals/enemies to lovers, and includes lots of hot sexual tension, this is for you. I love how Xander is a complete mystery and we get to know his back story little by little as the book progresses. I love how intertwined the characters are. 

While reading this I was reminded of From Lukov with Love from Mariana Zapata (one of my favorite books), so if you enjoy rivals forced to work together in the public eye please pick this up. Instead of the ice skating rink, the stage for Not Another Love Song is Carnegie Hall, and Xander and Gwen battle it out on the cello and violin. 

Thank you to Forever publishing & NetGalley for the ARC. My thoughts/opinions are my own and my review is voluntary.
