This story follows 2 people involved in the music industry. Justine James is the lead singer of the band Failsafe. Dillion Pierce is the lead guitarist/producer of the popular rock group Outlaw Rovers. One New Year’s Eve gig in Los Angeles, changes the lives of these 2 and opens the door to relationship. When drugs, sex, and rock and roll collide, will Justine and Dillon have their happily ever after?Amanda took me on a journey through the lives of Justine and Dillon. Chapters were described as months/years and it was good touch.  It did help me keep up with the time frame as it did change often. I was about 20% of the book when I felt like I didn’t know what the book was going to take me. It is one heck of a ride and I kept telling myself “there just has to be a happy ending.” I am glad that Justine has her head on straight. The temptations of the road never got to her. Now Dillon was a different story. “Always” depicts a growth within a relationship in a long time frame. Sometimes love isn’t so quick to grow. And there can many realistic hiccups along the way. This love story was not all rainbows and butterflies. Death, success, desire and strength molded these characters.Music lovers will enjoy this book since it takes you behind the scenes and on the road. Now for those that love a good smutty read, you would have to go elsewhere. While there is sex, you were told it happened. No descriptions. But there is a surprise at the end ;) It was a nice change and a good read. 4 smooches for Always by Amanda Weaver.Sarah
