You'd Be Mine by Erin Hahn

You'd Be Mine

by Erin Hahn

Annie Mathers is America’s sweetheart and heir to a country music legacy full of all the things her Gran warned her about. Superstar Clay Coolidge is most definitely going to end up one of those things.
But unfortunately for Clay, if he can’t convince Annie to join his summer tour, his music label is going to drop him. That’s what happens when your bad boy image turns into bad boy reality. Annie has been avoiding the spotlight after her parents’ tragic death, except on her skyrocketing YouTube channel. Clay’s label wants to land Annie, and Clay has to make it happen.
Swayed by Clay’s undeniable charm and good looks, Annie and her band agree to join the tour. From the start fans want them to be more than just tour mates, and Annie and Clay can’t help but wonder if the fans are right. But if there’s one part of fame Annie wants nothing to do with, it’s a high-profile relationship. She had a front row seat to her parents’ volatile marriage and isn’t interested in repeating history. If only she could convince her heart that Clay, with his painful past and head over heels inducing tenor, isn’t worth the risk.

Annie never wanted to inherit her tragic family legacy. She worked hard to do things differently, but was unable to resist the lure of being on-stage. When she signed on as Clay Coolidge's supporting act, she never expected to fall for him. This was the type of man she tried to avoid, because she refused to follow in her mother's footsteps, but would she be able to fight the magnetic attraction that existed between her and Clay?

• Pro: I cared so much for both Clay and Annie. Both were living their dream, but haunted by their past. I wanted them to peel back those layers, and release their inner demons, because their happiness was of the utmost importance to me.

• Pro: Clay was a country music superstar, so you would count him to be pretty lucky, but I thought he was even luckier to have a friend like Fitz. Their friendship ran so deep, and though at times, I thought Fitz was a little bit of an enabler, he did show that Clay was his priority, when push came to shove.

• Pro: It was fun being on tour (for the most part). Yes, there was some drama, but there were also all these great performances, that we had a front-row seat to. Hahn did an excellent job capturing that energy and spirit of the live performances, and she had me wanting to tap my foot along with the music.

• Pro: I was so shipping Annie and Clay. Both of them were sort of damaged, but they sure made beautiful music together - literally and figuratively. Sometimes their emotions were all over the place, but it was easy to see how well they fit with each other and could really "see" one another.

• Pro: I am not what you would call a country music fan, but I loved that there were so many nods to country music royalty. That made the setting feel more authentic for me.

• Pro: The ending left me feeling all the feels. It was so sweet, and what a fantastic setting Hahn selected for that moment. I would have liked to have seen a little bit of the after, but I did cry some happy tears, so job well done!

Overall: I had an incredible time on this summer tour, which was fun, emotional, and so, so satisfying.
