So excited Gillian continued this series!

So excited Gillian continued this series! After getting to know both Jesse and Ella in the previous book, I was so excited that Gillian put them together, and their journey did not disappoint! Ella has always harbored a crush on her brother’s best friend and bandmate Jesse; however, she knows that nothing would ever happen, but it’s rough for her seeing him with all the other women, some even her so-called friends. With the help of her new sister-in-law, she finds that she is a great photographer and decides to try to make a career out of it by becoming the band’s social media photographer and go on tour with them. Jesse is starting to see Ella as a woman rather than the kid sister of his friend and the more time they spend together, the more he lets his guard down in regard to his feelings towards her, because unbeknownst to either of them, they both harbor feelings towards each other. I loved the entire storyline for these two, and while I wanted to punch Jesse a few times because of how he acts, I wanted to really throttle Ella’s brother for not only the comments regarding their relationship but also the comments he makes about Ella and her life choices and career goals. I love that the band supports Jesse and Ella, even more so Ella than Jesse, and I love that they get the HEA they both have ran from for years. I cannot wait to see what happens to the other bandmates – hopefully we get their stories soon!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
