This was such a cute, sweet and spicy read! Sometimes a good novella just hits right. 

The Blurb:
When reigning pop princess, Effie Bird, needs a break after her world tour, her producer arranges a reprieve at former rocker Brett Blue's cabin, home to renowned Nightowl Studios.

Brett, lone remaining member of 90's grunge act Hoax, has lived hidden away from the media in Jewel, a small-town on the shores of Lake Michigan. The moment that finally wrecked him, and the last time anyone saw him publicly, was two years ago at the Grammy's while accepting Hoax's Lifetime Achievement Award.

It has been even longer since Effie has seen him, and suddenly she's standing on his doorstep clutching a bottle of their favorite wine. Or what had been their favorite when they used to sneak in each other's hotel rooms around the world, getting to know each other and making love in secret moments until Brett stopped showing up.

Maybe spending the summer together will only lead to heartbreak, but not before Effie writes her most intimate and surprising album to date, produced by Brett. Or maybe this will be the beginning of Effie and Brett's next chapter, one neither of them ever thought possible.
