Queen of My Heart (Life Won't Wait, #1) Nikki Lynn Barrett

Description:
When the next King of country music offers to take you under his wing, what's a girl to do?
Pinch herself, of course. Repeatedly. Then take the offer!
Quinn Winters is tired of being the actress known for most killed off characters. After discovering her love of music when her last role portrayed a country singer on a daytime soap opera, she's making a much needed change in life. Quinn is unprepared for the demands and expectations needed to succeed in Music City. One pleading call from her sister puts her in an all too familiar, but unwanted position.

Five years ago, Tucker McGinnis auditioned for a reality singing show, never expecting to win. His sudden fame and popularity comes as a major surprise. After a multi platinum debut, his second album is suffering the dreaded sophomore jinx. His musical muse becomes elusive when guilt plagues him over an accident which affects his family. He is blown away by Quinn when he overhears her audition at his record label, singing his most personal song.

An attraction builds, and a connection through music is formed. But when life gets in the way, Tucker makes another offer - A temporary marriage which will benefit both of them, until things become too real.

Two souls destined for the stage, two hearts blending together to create beautiful music as individuals, but even better as country music's next power couple- if they can shed the images of who they used to be.

My thoughts on the book:

Quinn is in Nashville to make her dreams come true, while she was a shoe in as a child for acting she knows that her love is music. When she auctions and everything doesn't go as planned she starts to question her choices. She has some family and personal secrets she likes to keep buried she runs into non other then Tucker McGinnis and he agrees to show her the ropes. Will she be able to protect her heart, her secrets and make her dreams come true or will it all fall at the wayside when her family comes calling? Tucker has his own demons he is dealing with but when he makes it big in Nashville he has his own set of choices he needs to make. When he walks in and hears Quinn singing his song he knows he need to get to know that voice and that person like yesterday. But will his demons and secrets keep separating and pushing them further apart or will it all come crumbling down around them and leave them with nothing but each other?
Where do I even begin with this book. I so so so enjoyed it. It had me all over the place with my emotions. One minute my heart is breaking right along side the characters and then in the next I can seen the mending of hearts. This book is a little on the long side but to be honest I could not imagine any portion of the book missing. It was amazing. I truly had a hard time not putting life to the side to finish this book. The characters may be rich and famous but they are just like you and me and the story made you truly feel like you were connecting with friends. I can't say that there was really anything I didn't like about the book. I enjoyed Lily and Stacey's role in the book and how even the small part they had such and impact on the story as a whole. I felt the same way about baby Piper. I loved the raw emotion the author wrote in the book and the storyline was fun to follow. I would say while I did enjoy this book hands down this book is not for all readers as it does contain some strong language, while it is very small amount I just feel the need to warn my readers. Other wise go grab this book because you will not be disappointed.
