There are so many reasons why I truly enjoyed reading Louder Than Love. If I had to write them down, the first reason would have to be that I loved that the main characters were older. They had lived a little. In both their lives they have been given good things and then had them taken away. Both not truly living a fulfilling life. Both needing a catalyst to bring happiness and love back to them.What started out like any other day for Katrina would only end with her whole life coming crashing down on her. An event that takes place has left Kat's life broken into a million pieces. Kat found a way to cope and to make as happy of a life she can for her and her daughter Abbey. She had her mom, dad, brother and friends that have helped her make her new life but it isn't until she meets Adrian does she experience feelings and emotions that had been buried deep within herself.Adrian had been a famous hard rock musician who had what you would call everything in life. The fame, the fortune, beautiful women and all the other accolades that his life afforded for. But for what price? Being a famous musician had cost him too much. His marriage. His daughter. His chance at a normal life.I just loved how Kat and Adrian were brought together. It was such a fun and sweet moment. The fact that the "catalyst" to bring them together would be Kat's daughter Abbey, at an event at a library no less was just perfect! :) The fact that they ended up in a hospital after their first kiss was just too funny....well you know what I mean!Kat and Adrian feelings slowly simmer which made their intimate moments perfect. The sex scenes were not as descriptive as I usually prefer but it really didn't matter. The way they were written fit the story perfectly. The train rides, their dates in Manhattan and the times that they spent with Abbey are precious. Their simple moments together at home or the little things that Adrian would say or do for Abbey just made me love them as a couple just that much more.But as their feelings for each other deepen they will both have to look back into their past. For both of them it is painful. Adrian's past cannot be change but will Kat be able to let go of hers and move on to the next step before it is too late?Louder Than Love was such a great read. Kat, Adrian and Abbey were just lovely together. Kat's friends were great too. Marissa was a hoot! When she would say "kiss my big fat lily-white ass" made me laugh. Liz was a lot of fun too. I am definitely going to use one of her comments again. It cracked me up when she referred to the other friends as "yapping yentas". I just found that so funny. lol I also loved all the British Lingo, the poetry and all the musical references. For me, all these things together just made this a great story.
