It happens without warning: At a folk-rock show at her son’s college, Lily becomes transfixed by the guitarist’s unassuming onstage presence and beautiful playing—and with his final note, something within her breaks loose.
After the concert, Lily returns to her comfortable life—an Upper West Side apartment, a job as a videographer, and a kind if distracted husband—but she can’t stop thinking about the music, or about the duo’s guitarist, JJ. Unable to resist the pull of either one, she rashly offers to make a film about the band in order to gain a place with them on tour. But when Lily dares to step out from behind her camera, she falls deep into JJ’s world—upsetting the tenuous balance between him and his bandmate, and filling a chasm of need she didn’t know she had.
Captivating and provocative, Play for Me captures the thrill and heartbreak of deciding to leave behind what you love to follow what you desire.

CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE REVIEW- SECOND CHANCE SUMMER BY JILL SHALVIS

second chance summer
RESCUE ME

Cedar Ridge, Colorado, is famous for crisp mountain air, clear blue skies, and pine-scented breezes. And it’s the last place Lily Danville wants to be. But she needs a job, and there’s an opening at the hottest resort in her hometown. What has her concerned is the other hot property in Cedar Ridge: Aidan Kincaid-firefighter, rescue worker, and heartbreaker. She never could resist that devastating smile . . .

The Kincaid brothers are as rough and rugged as the Rocky Mountains they call home. Aidan has always done things his own way, by his own rules. And never has he regretted anything more than letting Lily walk out of his life ten years ago. If anyone has ever been in need of rescuing, she has. What she needs more than anything are long hikes, slow dances, and sizzling kisses. But that can only happen if he can get her to give Cedar Ridge-and this bad boy-a second chance . . .

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTESY OF AMAZON

I was given a copy of this book by Netgalley for an honest review.

SECOND CHANCE SUMMER is another great book from Jill Shalvis. As always her characters and story come to life, pulling you in and not letting you go until you have finished the book. Lily is coming back to Cedar ridge after a fallout at her other job. Now she is needing a new start and somewhere to let the gossip to die down. She just has to keep her distance from Aidan. She has always had feelings for him, but when her little sister wanted him also,  she stepped back and let her have him. Aiden‘s feelings for Lily are still strong and he has to convince her that are meant to be together. This is such a great novel that it will have you rooting for Lily and Aiden to get together. Jill Shalvis always delivers a great read, and I am never disappointed. I give SECOND CHANCE SUMMER 5/5 STARS.
