Synopsis:
What’s more cliché than falling for a guy in a band?
A no-strings fling is all it was meant to be for Gracyn
George. Sun, sand, sex, and then move on. That was before he strummed his way
into her life. Each note leaving a tingle in her spine, their lasting melodies
burned into her memory.
What’s more cliché than pining for the one who got away?
Gavin Keller has sacrificed far too much to chase after the
girl who snuck out in the middle of the night and left him wondering, What if …
No matter how high his star rises or how many sold-out shows
he plays, he ends each concert scanning the audience for her.
What was supposed to be temporary becomes a longing neither
is willing to let go. After months of trying to move on, can they sync the
tunes in their hearts?

Excerpt:
Gavin
Gracyn’s gone.
She fucking left me in the middle of the night, buck-ass naked and in her bed.
I waited more
than an hour for her to come back from wherever she’d scampered off to, almost
certain that she’d just gone out to grab us some breakfast. Took a shower and
threw on my clothes from last night. Well, my board shorts because my favorite
fucking shirt was gone, too.
No Gracyn.
No note.
No shirt.
Nothing.
The sun blazes
down on my bare shoulders as I walk back to my shitty motel. It’s petty and
stupid, but I’m too pissed off to put on a different T-shirt. It’s the
principle.
My fist connects
with Ian’s door with three solid thumps. The last thing I want to do is walk in
on him getting ass when my chick had taken her fill and bailed on me. No
fucking way I feel like dealing with his shit over this. I don’t want to hear
it.
“Dude, you good?”
I call as I hit the door again.
“S’open,” Nate
yells. “Hey, didn’t think we’d see you today. She leaves tomorrow, right? That
chick you’ve been hanging with all week,” he asks, looking away from the movie
he’s watching, head propped up against the headboard of his bed.
“Fuck, man.
Forgot we swapped rooms. I’ll—”
Ian looks up from
his laptop and leans back, the colorful tats shifting as he folds his arms
across his chest. “Jesus, what did she do? Steal your clothes and skip town?”
The disgusted look on his face probably mirrors my own.
The door closes
behind me as I cross the room and sit my ass down on the edge of the empty bed.
I dig through Ian’s pack for a T-shirt. I pull on the first one I find, not
caring if it’s clean, and flop back, staring at the water stains blooming
across the ceiling by the bathroom. Hopefully, it’s the shower leaking in the
room above us and not the shitter.
What the fuck
happened? Why did she leave like that?
“Gavin?
Seriously, man, what happened?” Nate’s sitting on the edge of his bed, features
twisted in concern.
“I don’t know. I
woke up, and she was gone.”
“Gone? Or out for
a minute?”
“Gone. Left. Bags
packed, including my fucking shirt. Just gone.” No matter how many times I go
over it in my mind, it doesn’t congeal into anything that makes sense.
“Shit, man. That
sucks balls,” Ian mumbles as he goes back to tapping at his keyboard. “What’re
you gonna do? You text her yet?”
If only.
I run my hands
through my hair, gathering it in my fists, and blow out a frustrated breath. “I
don’t have her number.”
“Wait, what? You
spent all fucking week with her. How do you not have her number?”
I roll my head to
the side, so he can see just how fucking miserable I am. “I spent all fucking
week with her. I didn’t really need it … until now.” Jesus, this is the
worst. “What time are we playing tonight?”
“Ten, down on the
beach. So … nothing? You got nothing? No way to find her?” Nate asks.
“Fuck. No, not
really. Just a general idea of where she goes to school, and … no, I don’t even
have a last name. I mean, I’m sure I could try to stalk the shit out of her,
but she bolted, man.”
“Yeah … I guess
she just wasn’t that into you, man. Fucked the rocker on spring break and went
back to her Ivy League boyfriend.” As soon as the words leave his mouth, Ian
cringes, gritting his teeth and sucking a breath through them. “Sorry, shit. I
didn’t mean …”
“Whatever.” I
pull out my phone, hoping there’s a message, but this day is nothing but all
kinds of disappointments. I pop my earbuds in and pull up my post-show
playlist. I crank some old school ’70s disco to clear my mind. And hopefully
drift off to sleep.
