A beautiful love story...
Eli meets Ava on a beautiful beach one day. It was love at first sight. But their dreams pull them apart and move them in different directions. Years later they are reunited, pushed together once more as if the universe was trying to tell them that they were just meant to be together. Will Eli and Ava give in to their love?
This is one of those books where you come to relate to the characters almost immediately. I personally deeply relate to Ava with her father issues. The story of Ava and Eli's love and losing each other only to end up back together again reminds me of my husband and I... We met when I was 12 years old, fell in love, married when I was 18, divorced, and years later weary married again when I was 30. Some things are just meant to be.
This book is very romantic and there is a lot in this book that really hits home for me personally. The push and pull of the main characters is written well enough to make you want to just smack some sense into the main characters and tell them to give up the charade. YOU BELONG TOGETHER! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT YOU NUMBSKULLS!!! LOL 😋.
I laughed, I cried, I listened to music and had a great time with this book. LJ Evans delivers again! Beautiful story, lovely characters, and of course, great tunes! Good job sweetie you did it again!
Highly recommend to all romance lovers!… (mere)

Audio Version: My Life As A Pop Album by L.J. Evans (Author), Sarah Puckett (Narrator)

LJ Evans must have been a poet in another life. Her stories read like a sonnet put to music. The characters stir deep emotion and the words melt their way right into your heart. My Life as a Pop Album puts heartache on full display. Derek and Mia could make sweet music together, but it's the baggage in their past that has them playing the wrong keys. Can they find the right melody to turn their love ballad into a happily ever after? Evans lyrics are an inspiration to read. Sarah Puckett turns a beautiful mess into a breathtaking wonder. Evans and Puckett make the perfect duet team.… (mere)

I purchased this book from Amazon to read. All opinions are my own. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Guarded Dreams by L J Evans. Guys!!!!!! She has done it again. Evans matches the song with the book chapter and it all just flows so well. Only this time she got me! When I started this book I was taking my 15 year old to the Drivers License office to get his permit and as I sat there for 3 hours I plowed through the first 3/4 of the books with tears welling up in my eyes and trying not to cry in public! Ava just got out of school, Eli dreams of joining the Coast Guard and one magical summer in Galveston their souls connect but they both push harder to obtain their dreams. 4 years later their souls are still pushing for more. This one was heart wrenching heartwarming and full of fun! Ava and Eli aren't a couple I will forget anytime soon!

Audio Review: My Life as a Country Album (My Life as an Album) by: LJ Evans (Author), Sarah Puckett (Narrator)

Evans supplied the words. Puckett gave the melody. My Life as a Country Album reminds me why I love to read romance. Cam and Jake are a mixture of angst, youth and sentiment. Against the backdrop of some of my favorite songs, Evans has created a beautiful tale of young love and adult heartache. The maturity level reads so far above young adult. This is a story that goes far beyond words and speaks to the heart.… (mere)
