ALWAYS by Amanda Weaver*was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest reviewI want to start off by saying how impressed I was with this being the first novel I have read by Amanda Weaver. I found Always to be extremely well written and very much a true love story of friendship. Isn’t that where love should start?Always is a standalone novel but you will want more of this rock and roll group.  Always begins with two Rock Stars, one at the top of his game and one up and coming, and they forge a friendship like no other and surrounded by music. Justine James and Dillon Pierce stand together as friends and face everything life has to throw them and in the end we get a HEA. I found this story one of the most realistic reads. The problems and hurtles that they each face and experience can be reflected in everyday life. The glamour and allure of major rock stardom is stripped to the bare bones and some of the ugly is shown.The characters are amazing and honest and we all have friends that take us down roads that we may not belong on. I found the relationship with the secondary characters to be just as important as the main characters and really they are what drove the story. Yes, this is a romance but it is about falling in love at maybe not the right time. I really enjoyed Justine and Dillon’s story.  It was a “clean” read; drugs and sex and lots of happenings but not descriptive over the top long details.ALWAYS by Amanda Weaver receives 4 out of 5 Platypires!!!TEXAS HUGS AND HAPPY READING!!!
