The Lost Being Found

When it came to love, all Reggie Peters knew was heated arguments and explosive fights. Before he died, his parents were moments away from a divorce, following the path of his grandparents. Before he died, Reggie never got the chance to be in a serious relationship, much to his disappointment. The best family he had was with his band, Sunset Curve.

Growing up, Avalon Hayes was surrounded by a loving family with a music geek of a brother, a queen bee for a sister, and the local crazy lady for a grandmother. She had all the perfect examples for a loving relationship, yet she couldn't get it right. When she died, she had almost no one to miss her now that she was gone.

When he was with his boys, Reggie simultaneously felt loved yet underappreciated. They had formed their own little family, brothers for life really, but he couldn't help but feel like a third wheel to Luke and Alex. They had been friends for years when Reggie had moved to Los Angeles, but they had accepted him and Bobby. He had watched the two date for a year before amicably breaking up, deciding that they were better brothers than lovers. They all had their place in the band, and Reggie knew that he was the dumb jokester that liked to flirt.

Before she died, Avalon's plan was to go to college, to stay close to home, become an editor, and start her own family. When she woke up in 2016, she was shocked to see how much the world had changed while she didn't. To make it worse, her mom didn't wake with them and her sister left, tired of their family. Now all she had was her brother, dad, and grandmother. But they were making it work.

Or, the night Avalon Hayes meets Reggie Peters throws them both for a loop. Has she found someone that makes her feel the most seen in her whole life, that makes her realize that she does deserve love? Has he found someone that makes him feel like the most important, that gives him reason to believe that love isn't doomed to fail?
