Just One Song (Just One… Book 2) by Lynn Stevens – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Just One Song by Lynn Stevens
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A wonderfully heartwarming YA romance and although book two in a series it can happily be read as a standalone story. Local girl Cami Harris is ready to leave her hometown of Branson behind and experience big city living. Cami’s dream is to become a musical superstar so when a huge opportunity arises for her to sing as a backup singer for Southern rock legend Hank Walker at her local theatre, Mountain View over the summer she jumps at the chance. Unfortunately it turns out that the rock god is also a jerk, but his son Dylan definitely is not a jerk and he offers to take Cami under his wing. Whilst teaching Cami about the music industry Dylan and Cami grow closer and although they can’t deny their mutual attraction Cami feels that Dylan is holding something back from her. During one summer Cami must learn and navigate the rock-n-roll lifestyle as well as falling in love, and dealing with family drama. Although at the start of the summer Cami was desperate to leave Branson behind her by the end she is wondering if home is actually where she needs to be.
I loved the storyline and it had enough drama and mystery, in regards to Dylan’s secret, in it to keep me hooked. However, it was the characters that kept me turning the pages as I had to find out what was going to happen to them. Cami and Dylan are both very likeable characters and also very relatable which made me feel invested in their story and in their potential relationship.
