![]() ![]() Mini Review: Broadway, musicians, Irishmen, Midwesterner in NYC-a recipe for a book I knew I’d enjoy! This was my first Christina Lauren novel and I enjoyed the writing and romance-what a complicated and frightening, confusing situation Holland and Calvin found themselves in-all of it still somehow so grounded and relatable. As their relationship evolves and Calvin becomes the darling of Broadway-in the middle of the theatrics and the acting-not-acting-will Holland and Calvin to realize that they both stopped pretending a long time ago? Impulsively, she marries the Irishman, her infatuation a secret only to him. Seeing that her uncle needs Calvin as much as Calvin needs him, a wild idea takes hold of her. ![]() ![]() Calvin is set for a great entry into Broadway-until his reason for disappearing earlier becomes clear: he’s in the country illegally, his student visa having expired years ago. Using the only resource she has to pay the brilliant musician back, Holland gets Calvin an audition with her uncle, Broadway’s hottest musical director. Calvin Mcloughlin rescues her, but quickly disappears when the police start asking questions. Fate steps in one night in the form of a drunken attacker. Summary: For months Holland Bakker has invented excuses to descend into the subway station near her apartment, drawn to the captivating music performed by her street musician crush. ![]()
