Joni Lark has a secret. Sheâs one of the most coveted songwriters in LA, and yet she canât write. Thereâs an emptiness inside her, and nothing seems to fill it.
When she returns to her hometown of Vienna Shores, North Carolina, she hopes that the sand, the surf, and the concerts at The Revelry, her familyâs music venue, will spark inspiration. But when Joni gets there, nothing is how she left it. Her best friend is hiding something, her motherâs memories are fading fast, and The Revelry is closing.
How can Joni write when her world is leaving her behind?
Until she hears it. A melody in her head, lyric-less and half-formed, and an alluring and addictive voice to go with itâbelonging, apparently, to a wry musician with an emptiness of his own.
Surely, heâs a figment of Joniâs overworked imagination.
Then a very real man shows up in Vienna Shores. Heâs arrogant and guardedânothing like the sweet, funny voice in Joniâs headâand he has a plan for breaking their inconvenient telepathic connection: finish the song haunting them both and hope they donât risk their heartsâor their secretsâin the process.
Because that melody, the one drawing them together . . . what if itâs there for a reason?
