Moonlight Drive by A.R. Hadley – Review by Kerry Carr

Moonlight Drive by A.R. Hadley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a contemporary romance set in the 80s/90s. It is a very moving story and has plenty of drama and angst as well as dealing with topics such as addiction. The authors character development was great and I really felt drawn into the lives of Nick and Dani.
Both of them have had a rough start in life but they found comfort and love and a sense of safety with each other at a young age.
Fast forward and Nick is now part of a band just like he dreamed off and with Dani now old enough she leaves and follows his tour disgused as a groupie.
However the Nick she knew has changed and what is in his place is a man who fully embraced the rock and roll life, including the drinking, drugs and women.
With Nick being in a constant brain fog he has no idea that the young girl he fell in love with all those years ago is right in front of him.
After Dani witnessed Nick going through several relapses she decides to follow her dream and with the aid of Nick’s band she starts to make her own way in the music world. However her heart never leaves Nick.
Can she save him the way he saved her all those years ago? How will he react when he realises just who Dani is and why she seems to familiar to him? Will the love they once shared still exist or does the Nick that Dani knew before the game, partying and drugs not exist anymore?
This is an emotional and at times heartbreaking story but will love and music bring them together while addiction is trying to tear them apart.
