Logan Clay is beautiful. He wants nothing more than to be a musician. But there is so much in his way. He is the income supporting his parents. But he has never resented his parents for his predicament. He has always supported them. His father is unable to work because he is taking care of his mom. His mom was injured in an accident many years before. Logan has never resented his parents, he loves them. He will always be there when they need him.But now, Logan has been given an opportunity he can’t pass up, but in the middle of this opportunity he meets Gina. On top of finally getting his dream opportunity, Logan’s mom’s health begins to deteriorate. Torn in so many directions, Logan must decide if the career is more important than taking care of his family and being with them. He must decide if the heat between him and Gina is worth taking a chance on… He must decide it all and there isn’t a lot of time to do it.This is a great prequel to Sand & Clay. It is a great insight into Logan Clay. If you are looking for a quick read, this will definitely be right up your alley. I will say I was a little surprised that at one point in the book, tears formed in my eyes. That typically doesn’t happen when the story is a prequel or a quick read. But there is one moment in this book that my heart swelled and I felt this wave of emotions cross over me. It was beautiful and touching.With all that said, the one downside to the story was the relationship between Logan and Gina. Though it provides insight into Sand & Clay, there wasn’t really a lot of relationship development between the two of them. I didn’t really understand the love factor. We didn’t watch the relationship blossom so when the grand gesture happened it felt a little strange to me. Please do not misunderstand, I really enjoyed this short read, but I would have liked a little more development with the relationship in the story.I did adore the heck out of Logan. He was such a stand up guy when it came to his relationship with his parents and protecting their futures as much as his own.Because this is a quick read, I don’t want to say too much more than I already have, but if you are thinking about a quick read, I would definitely recommend Logan’s Story knowing that you are also going to want to read Sand & Clay to get the rest of the story.
