Sounds Like Love by Ashley Poston is written from the POV of Joni Lark, a songwriter in LA who returns home to Vienna Shores, SC in hopes of finding inspiration for her next song. She hears a melody in her head which ends up being connected to the thoughts of a mystery man. As she is trying to figure out how they can hear each other’s thoughts and communicate without talking, he shows up in Vienna Shores. She discovers that he is a musician, so they decide to team up to finish the melody in their heads in hopes that this is the way to get out of each other’s minds.
Ashley Poston frequently writes books with magical realism, and this book is done so well. ✨ I’ve read The Seven Year Slip and A Novel Love Story, and I honestly didn’t love them. I wanted to give AP one last chance, and I’m so glad I did! She incorporated some heavier topics into this book, which added more depth and emotions. I really enjoyed the side characters and location. If you’re a fan of music and magical realism, I highly recommend checking out this book!
Sounds Like Love is out now! 💕
