Karen is an extremely introverted cello player and student at Fenbrook. Conner is a bad-boy-Irish-rock-star in training that just doesn't understand. Circumstances beyond their control force them to work together despite their obvious differences.The first book in the Fenbrook Academy series Dance For Me (Fenbrook Academy #1) was my favorite Summer read of 2013, so I had high expectations for this installment. I was not disappointed. I liked that Karen was kind of geeky, but still a pretty girl. I could totally understand Connor's attraction to her. The writer did a good job of introducing Connor as a bad boy, without making him douchey. This book was angsty without being overly depressing, which is a refreshing departure from most of the new adult books I've read lately. Karen is friends with the heroine from Dance For Me. Which means Natasha, Darrell, Clarissa, and Neil also make appearances throughout. Good news for anyone leery of starting an incomplete series; this book features a different couple. Which makes it is very easy to follow without reading the previous book.
