Overdue - A Rockstar Romance by ItsTheQuietGirls

After a disastrous end to their last tour, Elliot Hawk, lead singer of True Outlaws - a British pop rock band taking the world by storm - is determined to keep the new album release squeaky clean. However, he isn't counting on Phoebe, a shy librarian with a past of her own, catching his eye. She isn't interested in a quick fling with a smooth talking rockstar, but before she knows it, their two worlds collide. They say life can change in a moment, Phoebe and Elliott are about to find out just how true that is. But with backstabbing backing dancers, pressure from the press and a mysterious stranger with a real vendetta, will they be able to find that long overdue happily ever after, or will our star crossed lovers crash and burn in the spotlight? (This is a standalone book, slowburn romance with a happy ending guaranteed. Some mature themes and triggers, including drinking and addiction) ----- "I'm not one of your fan girls." I snapped, a little offended, "I haven't even heard any of your music." "I'm hurt love. After I just serenaded you too." I huffed, "I wouldn't call that serenaded, I'm pretty sure it was harassment."

Sanditon Melodies by dejong679

Sidney's train to Sanditon is delayed, and when it finally arrives, he is annoyed to find his reserved seat occupied. Who is this girl that has stolen his seat? And what is it about her that he finds so intriguing? Can he open himself up to the possibility of love again? A modern AU loosely based on the Sanditon story set within the context of the music industry (fans of Nashville may appreciate this too). It will contain all our favourite Sanditon characters, but will primarily be focused on Sidlotte. I can also promise a HEA - it just may take a while to get there! This story includes some original songs which can be listened to on YouTube: "Out There" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee3D42_H2qY (Chapter 15) "Dreaming" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhkBkChNiwE (Chapter 25) "Contradictions" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbv-2GpK-Qo (Chapter 31) "Falling" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIsBTYfWo3U (Chapter 40)

The Butterfly Effect by MrsDarcy___

"I want how it was before. I want it all with you in my life again... I'm asking you to stay." Miles Cobain-Smith An aloof and detached logician, he scrutinizes the simplest things through microscopic lenses. Academic validation, family expectations, and unwavering care for the few people close to him sum up his life, and he certainly doesn't have time for love... yet. Juliet Everly A hopeless romantic, she sees the world through rose-colored glasses. According to her, love is magical and the purest thing one can ever encounter. Her world revolves around her dad and friends, and she's very content in her small-town life. She finds solace in romance books, nature, music, and her quiet attachment to bygone eras and everything vintage. Their paths cross. Clashing is inevitable, but there's something more... underneath the teasing remarks, stupid jokes, and laughter, an undercurrent too perplexing to decipher. When ignoring the spark becomes too much, their lives take a whole different turn. Hopes get crushed, dreams get shattered, and hearts get broken as the unexpected hits like a whirlwind. Gentle walks in the rain, soothing ocean breezes, hushed revelations, and an idyllic small town as a tranquil backdrop - how long until the picture-perfect expectations crumble into a mess of feelings too hard to hold back? All we can say is, it will be something unforgettable. Featured on @romance @storiesundiscovered @YA

*A stand alone concept not related to the Louder Than Love Trilogy* See a train wreck, become that train wreck. That is the story of my life. No matter how hard I try I can't seem to break it. When will I learn to not repeat the same mistakes again? Possibly Never. All I know is that I just want to forget about who I am... even if it's just for a little while...

Cacophony by DivergentlyYours

Sydney didn't have much, but that was fine with her. She didn't need much. Growing up on the Washington coast in a lonely beach town, working quietly behind the scenes was what she was good at. Living on the beach was much less glamorous than most people imagine. Her home was a beat up old Winnebago that she had shared with her father until he passed. Her father had been a detached parent. He loved his daughter of course, but he was by no means an affectionate man. She had grown up fending for herself, working backstage at a bar that hosted live bands using a fake ID. After the death of her father she saw an ad for a guitar technician for a local Seattle band. A love of rock and roll had been the one thing that her and her dad had in common. Selling everything that she didn't need she packed up her pickup truck and travelled north to the city, leaving the sleepy town in her rear view mirror. She didn't expect to embark on what would become the adventure of a lifetime. For someone who had hardly left the town she grew up in, the opportunity to get paid to travel the country and listen to great music was a dream come true. The band became her family, and life on the road was a perfect fit for her. Chris Cornell instantly became Sydney's best friend in the whole world. They were in love, that was plain as day to anyone who paid attention. Yet, sometimes love isn't as simple as it should be. Sometimes, love hurts. Warning: This book covers potentially triggering subjects such as depression, suicidal ideation, domestic abuse, sexual assault, poverty and drug use. These are issues that many of us have faced and are very real. If you or a loved one is experiencing suicidal thoughts or abuse in a relationship, please reach out and find help.
