"I was twenty one when Liam walked into my life. No, that’s wrong… he barged straight into me." Emily was just in her second year of college when her life took an unexpected turn. She'd never felt satisfied before, but with the books she buried herself in and dreams that she couldn't let herself lose, it was dawning worse than ever. She wanted more. More than she thought possible. But when she meets Liam, he might just offer her the one thing she thought she'd never have. Freedom.

Nell Watson just can't seem to get it right. Her parents treat her coldly no matter what she does and the one member of her family she could count on, her younger sister Paige, has turned her back on Nell. Now, everything's changing and Nell is starting to think that maybe perfect isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially when she starts slipping up...and liking it. Gray West is not a guy you want to mess with but Nell can't seem to stop herself from losing her famous cool around him. Maybe a little imperfection is all she needs.

Jude Turner has a problem. Actually, she has a few of concerning fame, alcohol, rivalries, lifestyle and hiatus. Yet - for the moment - her main affair is a solo album. With the band she'd joined at just fifteen years old going on a break, Jude is left wallowing for over a year until she decides to make that elusive solo album. But she goes one step further when she decides to go deep into the Californian desert to record at a legendary studio. When a musical rivalry as old as time is renewed with The Bends, a band cemented on the tumultuous relationship of Cam and Logan Harrison, she can't seem to find stable footing in this new solo world, let alone enough to stand her own against two obnoxiously arrogant brothers. It could be the album of a lifetime or the nightmare of hers. And Jude is finding that there's a very thin line that separates the two.

As far as dads go, Grace hadn't exactly lucked out. Blake Travis is a narcissistic rock star who has his sights set on making a comeback but he can't do it without his daughter's help. Thanks to a mountain of debt that her socialite mother accumulated, Grace reluctantly agrees with Blake's plan and works on proving to the whole world that her father, who hadn't been around for most of her life, was actually a real peach. Unfortunately, being on tour means singing on tour and Grace is a little out of practice. When the surly drummer in her father's band tries to get her to leave, will Grace stick around long enough to find her voice? And can a girl who doesn't know what it's like to have a father convince the world that her Dad is #1?

Keely Staub has grown up. At least that's what she thinks has happened. No longer a naive eighteen year old being introduced to a music industry that's equal parts grandeur and grime, she might even be considered a veteran. At just twenty six, she's lived almost too much of a life in the intervening years since she first came to New York. A great love and a great band, not to mention more than a few unsavoury addictions picked up along the way in the time honoured traditions of the rock stars before her. And she gave it all up - except the rock star part, of course. That was a different Keely Staub, a more innocent and wild one all at the same time. She's determined that person and all the things that came with her will stay in the past, and has a very clear path laid in front of her. A measured, smart, hopefully one day respected, path. The problem is the past refuses to remain the past.

Allison Wright is the first to admit she has a great life. With good friends, perfect grades, a promising future and a family fortune stretching back generations; what's not to like? And besides her dislike of music, she fits in perfectly with her circle of friends. Yet as her senior year of high school begins and the pressures of University as well as the future start bearing down, she finds herself looking for something different. She’s just not quite sure what she’s looking for. That is until a passing mention and multiple encounters bring a boy she'd never met before to the forefront of her mind. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met. With his deep grey eyes, secrets and guitar; Cole Mathews might just be that dose of different she's been longing for.

Delinquent, Reject, Prodigy. Orphaned Rosemary Adams manages to find a family only to be tossed aside when she's wrongly accused of vandalism. She's sent to a boarding school for delinquent kids where her natural abilities for the piano are discovered and for the next few years, her only focus is music. But when her agent dies in a car accident, Rose vows to never touch a piano again. Now, on her own and enrolled in a public school, can she keep her vow? Will the thrill of rock music make her change her mind? Or will Mac Parker, lead singer in a rock band scare her away? This story is a spin off of Playing Evelyn.

In life there are things that are said, and then there are those that remain unsaid. For Keely Staub, her life mostly remained in the latter category. She kept the one true love, music, hidden from even her best friends. But when one song changed the world she lived in, shaking it to it's very core, everything she knows is about to change. Her future and a past even hidden from her collide as she wades through a world she'd never dared to dream of, allowing her half heart to maybe find an equally broken one in the unlikely source of Seth Ryan.
