~ Our Review ~
4 Star Review by Annie
Tracks starts off like your typical rocker love story filled with sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll, but it becomes so much more than that. It is a story about surviving your demons and learning how to overcome obstacles one at a time all for the sake of love.
After focusing her whole life on getting into Harvard, Dylan’s dreams are finally coming true. Nothing and no one is going to stand in her way. Or at least she wasn’t planning on it. Sometimes when you least expect it love will find you.
Jeremy is used to having the world at his fingertips. Anything he wants, he gets. With and unlimited amount of woman, alcohol and drugs he becomes powerless to the rock and roll lifestyle. That is until he finds something worth more than all of it. Something that makes him want to be a better man. Something in the form of a girl staring at him from the front row of his sold out concert with the most beautiful eyes he has ever seen.
This was an amazing tale of how sometimes love can truly conquer all, or at least you hope it does. This book has an amazing plot, and even more amazing characters that you will grow to love. It will have you rooting for their love to survive the whole way through until the very last page.
I give this book a 4 star review. I really really wanted to give it a higher rating because I liked this book so much, but the major downfall is it didn’t end. Even with an epilogue it just wasn’t fulfilling. I guess on the plus side is there will be a second book in the series. So maybe, just maybe I will get my ending after all.
~ Excerpt ~
I make a disgusted sound in my throat. “I am totally fucked up by what my mother did to me,” I say, still aghast at his reaction to my story.
“Fucked up?” he questions, confused. “Why? Because you’re shy? Because you’re private? Because you don’t like to be vulnerable? Because you strive to achieve great things to prove you’re good enough to be worth something?”
The way he instantly knows me makes me very uncomfortable. I freeze, wide eyed and unable to speak for a moment. How could he see me so clearly? How did this connection between us go so deeply? It was disturbing to me, the understanding between us. It’s deeper than even the physical pull between us, as if the air that separates our bodies is electrically charged. I had worked my whole life to push people away, building up this wall of protection. And yet here is this man, tearing it down and seeing who I am through all the bullshit. Maybe I'm not as good at hiding myself as I thought.
“Yeah,” I finally muttered. “Those reasons are pretty much why.”
“It makes you beautiful. The things you say it created in you... are what attract me to you in this unbelievable way. You’re timid, shy, brilliant, and completely unaware of how amazing you are.”
I go statue still. My heart feels like it’s going to explode at his words. How did our conversation
change course so quickly? I don’t know if I’m prepared for this. “Amazing?” I repeat in disbelief.
He smiles a catlike smile, like he’s hunting again. Immediately, my breathing increases. “Oh yes. When I first saw your eyes from the stage,” he leans closer to me. I want to both back away and lean toward him at the same time. “I wanted to make them roll back into your head. I wanted to grab your round hips and pull you close to me.” He crouches on the couch, one leg on and one leg off, leaning over me. With his face against my cheek again, he whispers in my ear, “You. Are. Breathtaking.”
