Their love song was supposed to stay unfinished…
It’s been said that you shouldn’t meet your idols. Sasha Linley did one better—she dated hers. Leaping from front row center to the lead singer’s bed was a fantasy straight out of a movie. Complete with the dramatic, cliff-hanger ending.
Dahl Sturgiss is the first to admit he didn’t handle his rise to fame well. The glare of the spotlight, fueled by his band’s success, left his mental health in tatters. Too proud to admit he was struggling, he made a million bad decisions—like blocking Sasha everywhere instead of letting her see him at his worst.
After two years, Sasha’s done her best to move on. She’s a nurse in Washington, DC. Her time with Dahl is a wound, long scabbed over—until he shows up as a patient in her ER. Despite being on the losing end of a battle with a weed whacker, Dahl is determined to show Sasha he’s not the selfish ass he once was. She won’t let him rewrite their ending.
Fate has other plans for her when he ends up in Sasha’s hometown for the summer. For a few fairytale weeks in picturesque Port Fortune, Virginia, Sasha and Dahl have it all. Eventually, the real world creeps in. The band’s new album is almost done. They’ll be hitting the road once more. She’s terrified that history will repeat itself once they leave their perfect little bubble. Can Dahl convince Sasha that there’s still more lines to be written in their love song before it’s too late?

MY REVIEW
Sasha hasn't spent her time since Dahl moping over him, but she can admit that seeing him again in the ER has thrown her. She keeps dreaming about him, and that's not acceptable. At least she won't have to keep seeing him, as she's asked him to kindly avoid contacting her again. But he's determined to at least apologize and get some closure. Unfortunately, that will be a hard sell, considering how he pushed her away and spouted off some hurtful words.
Short and sweet, but I admit, a bit fluffy. There wasn't a whole lot of spice, which would been a good way to strengthen their connection. As it is, though, I liked Sasha - she's smart and hard working, and clearly has a huge heart. As for Dahl, he didn't grovel as much as he should have, but it was clear he really had worked on himself since they parted, and I liked that Sasha could see it.
