This was a very interesting book.  I think at first that I identified with Hailey because she likes the familiar things in life.  She is afraid to go against the norm.  There is another person lurking deep down in her but no one will help her bring it out.  She meets Chase in a music comp class.  They are total opposites.  She's stuck up and dresses like a grandmother.  Chase is full of himself, has tattoos, and wears shirts with the sleeves cut out.  There is an instant dislike, but there is also an instant spark.  The problem is that Hailey has a boyfriend, Braxton.  Throughout the book we have this tiny triangle going on.  There were times that I really didn't like Hailey.  I felt as if she played Chase against Braxton and if things didn't go the way that she felt they should she turned back to Braxton.  Braxton was in the dark for most of the book.  He thought everything was ok with their relationship.  I love how that Chase is not your typical "rock star" who has to have a different girl in his bed each night.  Matter of fact this was a clean book with the exception of some cursing.  I loved how Haiely's roommate brought out a different side to her.  There is a lot of angst in this book.  I won't say who she ends up with, but I would have given this book five stars had the ending been a bit more conclusive.  Dual point of view.  Not a cliffhanger, but it left you wanting to know more.  I guess you can draw your own conclusions.  The best part was that there is a video from the song that Chase wrote on YouTube.  I love when authors and musicians collaborate.  It helps me to get the tune that was intended for the song in my head.  I suggest that you read this book.  Pretty good.
