From the author of Where the Rhythm Takes You comes a delightful enemies-to-lovers, contemporary romance set during Trinidad's Carnival celebration.
There are two things Tess Crawford knows for sure:
But when the future of Grandeur nears the brink of collapse in the face of band rivalry, Tess finds to her chagrin that she must team up with Brandon in a desperate attempt to revive the company.
As Tess and Brandon spend more time together, Tess begins to wonder if everything she thought she knew might not be so certain after all….
Set in lush, gorgeous Trinidad, this is a novel about finding love in the most unexpected places.

The cast's magnetic chemistry, both romantic and platonic, and the palpable love for the beauty and culture of Trinidad and Tobago stand out in this radiant depiction of love, creative passion, and closure." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Captivating, witty, and heartfelt prose…. An exciting and sentimental love story perfect for romance lovers who appreciate multifaceted characters." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
