When destiny fails…
Singer-songwriter Lucy Moore thought her life was perfect. At just twenty-one, she’s already met her soul mate and together they’ve landed a recording contract. But when her father dies and the love of her life betrays her in more ways than one, she returns home to pick up the pieces. On the shores of Mendocino, California, Lucy has some decisions to make. Should she start a solo career? Or should she leave it all behind for some semblance of normalcy in the quiet town she grew up in? And what about Seth, the tortured artist who always seems to be there when she needs him?
Seth Keenan has demons of his own. Eighteen months ago, he was involved in a horrific accident that he never talks about. His career as an accomplished oil-paint artist has been abandoned, replaced by the buzz of his tattoo gun. And women—well, he never sticks around for longer than a few hours of pleasure… until he meets Lucy. After one evening of listening to her seductive voice, he’s pulled under. But what about the vow he made to never get close to anyone again?
In a world where everyone has one true soul mate, can these two find love in the arms of each other?

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed this book. I love the characters. I loved that there was more then one point of view with Seth and Lucy. One thing that I didn't like about Lucy was that she was a runner. She runs from any conflict and at times I wished she had stayed to avoid making things bigger then what they were. I really liked Jax's I thought she was a great friend and I would love to say the reasons why but I can't do that without giving the book away. (To the author: I would love to hear more about Jax and her finding her soul mate :-D )The only people I didn't like was Caden and Lucy's meddling mother. I hated that her mother knew what happened between Caden and still sided with him as well as other problems. I hated Caden, he let the music, his ego, and the groupies get to his head. I hated how selfish he was. I feel like I'm going to give too much away so I'll stop talking about the characters. I thought that this book was well written and that there was never a dull moment to this book. I recommend you lovely readers to check out this book. 4 of 5 stars!
Glad you liked it, Jessica! This sounds like a really good book!
