It may be a novella but this little story packs quite a punch. First of all you MUST listen to the awesome song penned JUST FOR this novella. From what I hear the same fab band will be doing the soundtrack to the rest of the series too & the lead singers face is on the cover of THIS book!(he's a cutie patooty)Like I mentioned it was a novella BUT that did not matter. This was the PERFECT way to be introduced to the series and get a bit of background 411 on the characters we will grow to love. Or hate.Jake who is busy preparing to bring his band to stardom is surprised to realize he has feelings for the not-so- little- anymore- girl- next -door named Alyssa.Who knew first true love could cause so many issues?Is it a YOKO ONO repeat? Is Jake going to lose his edge because he gets caught up in a chick?Jake and Alyssa may have a slight age difference but their love is young, fresh, and sweet.What really made me like this book was that I felt like I was there with Alyssa as she was experiencing her first love feelings. The silly girlish day dreaming, smelling the tee she borrowed from him, blushing and feeling insecure when around him, etc.Brings me back to a time when butterflies in your stomach around a crush was the best feeling in the world!I am really interested to read the next book (book 1) to see how all of these new feelings play out, how Rachel handles the rejection, and how the band treats a potential threat.**received book in exchange for my honest & unpaid for review**
