What an excellent book club pick! This “romance” gave us so much to discuss last night at the Atlanta @beachreadsandbubbly book club. The romance descriptor is in quotes because this was more fiction than romance. Colton is a famous country music star who has to figure out his life after making some polarizing comments about guns and losing his record deal while doing a stint in rehab.
⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
He moves back to his small hometown, and when he thinks he’s hit rock bottom, he finds a way to reinvent himself. The book has two timelines - the present and Colton’s high school years. We learn how his relationship with his high school girlfriend helped form who he is today, and it’s nice to learn about the characters through this plot device.
Our book club found plenty of flaws within this book, questioning the feasibility of some of the decisions, twists, and choices the author made. It definitely was more of a like than a love for most of us, myself included. But I’m glad we chose it.
