To say I am a fan would be an understatement. Jessica Topper's words are so beautiful I want to squeeze them and rub them on my skin. She digs deep into emotion, unearthing layers of character and adding rich detail. If you are a writer, you will pause and marvel at her descriptions. You might have a flash of jealousy, but then you'll just be glad she wrote it, so you can read it. My god, the treadmill scene will turn you inside out. It levels me every time.LOUDER THAN LOVE is sexy, too. Like old school rocker sexy. Adrian has been there, done that, has regrets, but will rock your world. Did I mention he's British? And Kat is real - and funny - and smart. And her young daughter is charming. Kat has a posse of BFFs, too. Add all that together and you have a smart, sexy, surprising, heart wrenching read. This book will make you crave bagels and a trip to NYC. (Topper loves her NYC and you will feel it's magic.) You'll want to have coffee with your best friend and meet up in an iconic hotel with a new lover. You will want to listen to the Beatles, even if you don't like the Beatles. Or maybe you'll find yourself listening to heavy metal music because you want to get a little closer to Adrian...This book is a journey for characters and reader. Take it. You will not regret it. (Unless you think it's a New Adult book. Then you might be a little confused, but I bet you'll still love it!) I loved this book!
