In this powerful debut novel, a young librarian grieves the loss of her husband...and discovers a love that defies classification.It's been over three years since a train accident made a widow of Katrina Lewis, sending her and her young daughter Abbey back to the suburban town of her youth...the only place that still makes sense. Lauder Lake is the perfect place to hide and heal.Recluse rocker Adrian "Digger" Graves survived the implosion of his music career, but his muse has long lain dormant. Until Kat hires him to play at her library--not on the basis of his hard rock credentials but rather, because of the obscure kids' TV jingle he wrote years ago. In a case of mistaken identity, Adrian stumbles into the lives of Kat and her comically lovable daughter.Using tattoos as a timeline, Adrian unfurls his life for Kat. But as the courtship intensifies, it's unclear whose past looms larger: the widow's or the rocker's. Will their demons ever rest, or will they break these soul mates apart?Review:First, I have to say what a freaking awesome book, or should I say it was bloody great!The author weaves a great story of not just romantic love lost and found, but love of friends, family too.  Now, before we get too far, have tissues handy...This is the story of Katrina who is a terrible twist of fate loses her husband in an accident and Adrian a former rock star who lost all his loves because or rock and roll.I know I am not going to do the story justice; the characters draw you in.  Katrina who has been living in a holding pattern for 4 years since the death of her husband, who won't let others in fully. The parts of the story that look back on the death of her husband are so emotional and strong, you cannot help but cry along.  Adrian has spent years overcoming his demons, but is still in a holding pattern like Kat until they meet.  These two are so complex and their love story is beautifully written that I did not want their story to end.I highly recommend this debut book and cannot wait until she comes out with more books!5 stars
